In view of the extremely important biological and medicinal properties of napthofurans, the synthesis of these heterocycles has fascinated the interest of medicinal and organic chemists. Keeping this in mind, we herein reporting synthesis, and antimicrobial evaluation of 4-N-aryl -naphtho[2,1-b]furo[3,2-d] pyrimidines 5 (a-l). Structures of these synthesized compounds were confirmed by spectral analysis like IR, NMR and Mass spectrometry. The In vitro antimicrobial activities were reported for the all compounds 5 (a-l). The compounds 5e and 5f exhibited excellent antibacterial, antifungal and antidermatophytic activities against tested pathogens at MIC 3.125, and 3.125g/ml respectively. Furthermore, molecular docking studies of these compounds against Staphylococcus aureus tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase (PDB ID: 1JIJ), S. Aureus Gyrase (PDB ID: 2XCT) and SARS-CoV-2 Omicron (PDB ID: 7TOB), revealed the potential binding mode of the ligands to the site of the appropriate targets. Finally, drug likeness and structures activity relationship studies also disclosed.
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.
