The synthesis of dihydropyridone derivatives has been reported by ring rearrangement of pyrans using iodine and formic acid as a catalyst separately. Dihydropyridones were crystallized subjected for single-crystal X-ray crystallography to acquire their structural parameters. The different non-covalent interactions involved within the supramolecular systems were studied and validated using Hirshfeld surface plot analysis. NÀ H•••O interactions between the lactam group dominate. Still, other non-covalent interactions such as CÀ Hand lone pair•••π systems act as the driving force in facilitating the self-assembly of the dihydropyridone supramolecules. The synthesized compounds were analyzed by in vitro techniques using human lung adenocarcinoma (A549) to evaluate their cytotoxic activities. Ethyl 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-5cyano-2-methyl-6-oxo-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-3-carboxylate has shown the highest cytotoxicity among all the synthesized compounds. Molecular recognition properties of the dihydropyridone compounds were also studied, employing molecular docking tools to gain insight into the binding mode inside the allosteric binding pocket of the Eg5 protein through noncovalent interactions.
In this study, the 2‐oxospiro[indoline‐3,4′‐pyran]‐5′‐carbonitrile derivatives were synthesized, crystallized, and their molecular geometries were established by the SCXRD method. The significance of weak intermolecular interactions in the self‐assembly of 2‐oxospiro[indoline‐3,4′‐pyran]‐5′‐carbonitriles was then investigated. The supramolecular framework analysis indicated that 2‐oxospiro[indoline‐3,4′‐pyran]‐5′‐carbonitriles establish their network in self‐assembly mainly by N−H⋅⋅⋅O, N−H⋅⋅⋅N, C−H⋅⋅⋅O, C−H⋅⋅⋅C, C−H⋅⋅⋅N, and C−H⋅⋅⋅π interactions. The energy framework analysis revealed the dominant contribution of electrostatic energy in the crystal packing of the titled compounds. The PASS prediction of the titled compounds has shown a reasonably good affinity towards Insulin‐regulated aminopeptidase. Further, the molecular docking study with Insulin‐regulated aminopeptidase receptor has shown the higher affinity of the titled compounds to the zinc binding pocket over the other pockets.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
