Popis: | Graphical abstract Highlights • Synthesis. • New compounds. • Molecular docking. • In silico ADME/Tox profiling. • SARS CoV-2 main protease. The virus SARS CoV-2, which causes the respiratory infection COVID-19, continues its spread across the world and to date has caused more than a million deaths. Although COVID-19 vaccine development appears to be progressing rapidly, scientists continue the search for different therapeutic options to treat this new illness. In this work, we synthesized five new 1-aryl-5-(3-azidopropyl)indol-4-ones and showed them to be potential inhibitors of the SARS CoV-2 main protease (3CLpro). The compounds were obtained in good overall yields and molecular docking indicated favorable binding with 3CLpro. In silico ADME/Tox profile of the new compounds were calculated using the SwissADME and pkCSM-pharmacokinetics web tools, and indicated adequate values of absorption, distribution and excretion, features related to bioavailability. Moreover, low values of toxicity were indicated for these compounds. And drug-likeness levels of the compounds were also predicted according to the Lipinski and Veber rules. |
