(SPRINGER WIEN, 2013) Yelekçi, Kemal; Yabanoglu-Ciftci, Samiye; Ercan, Ayse; Yelekçi, Kemal; Ucar, Gulberk; Gokhan-Kelekçi, Nesrin
A series of 1-[2-((5-methyl/chloro)-2-benzoxazolinone-3-yl)acetyl]-35-diaryl-45-dihydro-1H-pyrazole derivatives were prepared by reacting 2-((5-methyl/chloro)-2-benzoxazolinone-3-yl)acetylhydrazine with appropriate chalcones. The chemical structures of all compounds were confirmed by elemental analyses IR H-1 NMR and ESI-MS. All the compounds were investigated for their ability to selectively inhibit monoamine oxidase (MAO) by in vitro tests. MAO activities of the compounds were compared with moclobemide and selegiline and all the compounds were found to inhibit human MAO-A selectively. The inhibition profile was found to be competitive and reversible for all compounds by in vitro tests. Among the compounds examined compounds 5ae 5af and 5ag were more selective than moclobemide with respect to the K (i) values experimentally found. In addition the compound 5bg showed MAO-A inhibitor activity as well as moclobemide. A series of experimentally tested compounds (5ae-5ch) were docked computationally to the active site of the MAO-A and MAO-B isoenzyme. The AUTODOCK 4.01 program was employed to perform automated molecular docking.

Synthesis molecular modeling and in vitro screening of monoamine oxidase inhibitory activities of some novel hydrazone derivatives
(SPRINGER WIEN, 2013) Yelekçi, Kemal; Gokhan-Kelekçi, Nesrin; Yabanoglu-Ciftci, Samiye; Yelekçi, Kemal; Ucar, Gulberk
Thirteen 2-[2-(5-methyl-2-benzoxazolinone-3-yl)acetyl]-3/4/5-substituted benzylidenehydrazine derivatives were synthesized by reacting 2-(5-methyl-2-benzoxazolinone-3-yl)acetylhydrazine and substituted benzaldehydes in neutral and acid/base catalyzed conditions and a comparison was made in terms of their yields and reaction times. The structures of all compounds were confirmed by IR H-1 NMR C-13 NMR mass spectral data and elemental analyses. All the compounds were investigated for their ability to selectively inhibit MAO isoforms by in vitro tests and were found to inhibit recombinant human MAO-B selectively and reversibly in a competitive manner. Among the compounds examined compound 16 was found to be more selective than selegiline a known MAO-B inhibitor in respect to the K (i) values experimentally found. Additionally compounds 9 and 15 showed moderate MAO-B inhibitor activity. The interaction of compounds with MAO isoforms was investigated by molecular docking studies using recently published crystallographic models of MAO-A and MAO-B. The results obtained from the docking studies were found to be in good agreement with the experimental values.

Synthesis of some novel hydrazone and 2-pyrazoline derivatives: Monoamine oxidase inhibitory activities and docking studies
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2014) Yelekçi, Kemal; Yabanoglu-Ciftci, Samiye; Ucar, Gulberk; Yelekçi, Kemal; Ertan, Rahmiye
A novel series of 2-pyrazoline and hydrazone derivatives were synthesized and investigated for their human monoamine oxidase (hMAO) inhibitory activity. All compounds inhibited the hMAO isoforms (MAO-A or MAO-B) competitively and reversibly. With the exception of 5i which was a selective MAO-B inhibitor all derivatives inhibited hMAO-A potently and selectively. According to the experimental K-i values compounds 6e and 6h exhibited the highest inhibitory activity towards the hMAO-A whereas compound 5j which carries a bromine atom at R-4 of the A ring of the pyrazoline appeared to be the most selective MAO-A inhibitor. Tested compounds were docked computationally into the active site of the hMAO-A and hMAO-B isozymes. The computationally obtained results were in good agreement with the corresponding experimental values. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
