Abstrakt: The emphasis on sustainable sources of drug development seems imminent with phytochemicals emerging as promising candidates due to their minimal probability of adverse effects. This study focuses on utilizing simple cinnamic acid and nicotinic acid derivatives as starting materials, employing an efficient synthetic protocol to obtain methyl 5-((cinnamoyloxy)methyl)picolinate targeting CVD mediated by multiple enzymes such as MAPK, PCSK9, MPO, SIRT1 and TNF-α. Comprehensive characterization of synthesized molecule is achieved through 1 H, 13 C, FT-IR, and HRMS methods. Additionally, the crystal structure was established via SC-XRD. Comparative analysis with the DFT-optimized structure identifies key nucleophilic and electrophilic regions for determining interactions with bio-targets. Notably, Compound 5 adheres to all drug-likeness criteria, further validated through screening similar pharmacophoric drugs from databases. Targeting bio-relevant areas with a specific focus on CVD drug development. The molecular docking studies elucidate ligand-protein interactions for better binding connectivity. This investigation further underscores the importance of sustainable practices, simple chemical synthesis, and computational approaches, contributing to the pursuit of eco-friendly drug development with enhanced safety profiles (MTT assay).
