  • SCHIFF BASE COMPLEXES WITH 2-CHLOROBENZALDEHYDE AND 1,3-DIAMINOPROPANOL: STRUCTURAL INSIGHTS, COMPUTATIONAL STUDIES AND MOLECULAR DOCKING AGAINST JN.1 RBD PROTEIN

    Rasayan Journal of Chemistry, 2026
    Three metal-based compounds were prepared with a Schiff base (SB), obtained by interacting with2- chlorobenzaldehyde and 1,3-diaminopropanol. The structure [MLCl2] of the metal complexes was determinedbyusing UV–vis, FT-IR, TGA, and 1H & 13C NMR studies. The metal-to-ligand ratio is found to be 1:1 molar ratiointhe present compounds, as revealed by elemental analysis and spectroscopic data. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were made to understand the bond length, bond parameters, bond angle and dihedral angles of thesestudied compounds. The MEP (molecular electrostatic potential) diagram for the compounds was studied to knowthe critical sites on the compounds for electrophilic attack. Moreover, the atomic charges were analysed to describethe physicochemical properties of these studied compounds. The docking study was performed against the PDBID: 8YZD (JN.1 RBD protein in complex with ACE2). As per the findings, these four coordinated metal complexesshowed greater binding affinity than the free ligand. The results of the study will help to develop potential inhibitorsagainst SARS-CoV-2 variants, after further in vitro and in vivo validation.

    Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Ethiopia, 2026
    A series of complexes, labeled as 1, 2, and 3, representing [Zn(aq)2Cl2], [Cd(aq)2I2], and [Hg(aq)2Cl2], respectively, was reported. Their structures were characterized using elemental analysis and IR spectroscopy. The degradation of the complexes was investigated using the TGA analyses. Hirschfeld surface analysis was used to explore intermolecular interactions within complexes 1 and 2. DFT studies were also conducted to gain a deeper insight into the structural properties of the complexes. Additionally, Molecular docking studies assessed their interactions with the main protease of SARS-CoV-2 (Mpro) and the human ACE2 receptor. The results indicate that these complexes have strong binding affinities.KEY WORDS: Aminoquinoline, IR spectroscopy, HS analysis, DFT studiesBull. Chem. Soc.

    The transmembrane glycoprotein angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is a key component of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS). It was shown to be the receptor of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 in the COVID-19 outbreak (SARS-COV-2). Furthermore, ACE2 aids in the transport of amino acids across the membrane. ACE2 is lost from the membrane, resulting in soluble ACE2 (sACE2). We aim to examine the structural conformation alterations between SARS-CoV-1 or 2 variants at various periods with ACE2 from various sources, particularly in the area where it interacts with the viral protein and the receptor. It is important to study the molecular dynamics of ACE2/SARS-COV RBD when the structure is available on the database. Here we analyzed the crystal structure of ACE2 from Human, Dog, Mus, Cat, and Bat ACE2 in complex with RBD from SARS-COV-1 and SARS-COV-2. The result shows, there is a variation in the type of residues, number of contact atoms and hydrogen bonds in ACE2 and RBD during the interaction interfaces. By using molecular dynamics simulation, we can measure RMSD, RMSF, SASA, Rg and the difference in the percentage of α helix and β strand. As bat ACE2 & SARS-CoV-2 RBD found to have a high amount of β strand compared to another structure complex, while hACE2 & SARS-CoV-1 RBD has fewer amounts of β strand. Our study provides a deep view of the structure which is available and a summary of many works around ACE2/SARS-CoV RBD interaction.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

  • Structure-based discovery of F. religiosa phytochemicals as potential inhibitors against Monkeypox (mpox) viral protein

    Journal of Biosafety and Biosecurity, 2024
    Outbreaks of Monkeypox (mpox) in over 100 non-endemic countries in 2022 represented a serious global health concern. Once a neglected disease, mpox has become a global public health issue. A42R profilin-like protein from mpox (PDB ID: 4QWO) represents a potential new lead for drug development and may interact with various synthetic and natural compounds. In this report, the interaction of A42R profilin-like protein with six phytochemicals found in the medicinal plant Ficus religiosa (abundant in India) was examined. Based on the predicted and compared protein-ligand binding energies, biological properties, IC50 values and toxicity, two compounds, kaempferol (C-1) and piperine (C-4), were selected. ADMET characteristics and quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) of these two compounds were determined, and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were performed. In silico examination of the kaempferol (C-1) and piperine (C-4) interactions with A42R profilin-like protein gave best-pose ligand-binding energies of –6.98 and –5.57 kcal/mol, respectively. The predicted IC50 of C-1 was 7.63 μM and 82 μM for C-4. Toxicity data indicated that kaempferol and piperine are non-mutagenic, and the QSAR data revealed that piperlongumine (5.92) and piperine (5.25) had higher log P values than the other compounds examined. MD simulations of A42R profilin-like protein in complex with C-1 and C-4 were performed to examine the stability of the ligand-protein interactions. As C-1 and C-4 showed the highest affinity and activities, they may be suitable lead candidates for developing mpox therapeutic drugs. This study should facilitate discovering and synthesizing innovative therapeutics to address other infectious diseases.
  • A Bowl-Shaped Zinc-Salen Complex: Structural Analysis and Molecular Docking Studies against Omicron-S and Delta-S Variants

    Abstract A novel binuclear salen-Zn(II) complex has been prepared and structurally investigated by single-crystal X-ray crystallography, which reveals a distorted tetragonal pyramidal environment around one zinc atom and distorted tetrahedral geometry surrounding the second zinc atom. In order to further understand the structural aspects of the complex, additional research into its structure has been conducted using theoretical methods, such as DFT and TD-DFT. Furthermore, Hirschfeld surface analysis has been used to obtain quantitative descriptions of intermolecular interactions in molecules. A comparative molecular docking investigation for the title binuclear Zn(II) complex has been explored against the SARS-CoV-2 S-Delta (PDB ID: 7V8B) and the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron (PDB ID: 7T9K) variants, and the results indicated that the Omicron variation had higher energy for stabilization.

    Journal of Biomolecular Structure and Dynamics, 2023
    Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has compelled the scientific community to search for an effective drug that can cure or a vaccine that can prevent the disease. Alternatively, symptomatic treatment and traditional immunity boosters are prescribed. Holy Tulsi (Ocimum sanctum) has been known as an ancient remedy for cure of common cold and respiratory ailment. Several reports have come on virtual screening of phytochemicals including those of Tulsi against various enzymes of the virus. We undertook in silico analysis of the ethanol extracted phytochemicals of Tulsi as inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 (2019-nCoV) main protease with an approach to look into the possibility of covalent ligand binding with the catalytic residue Cys145, which makes the report unique. The results suggest that the flavonoids and polyphenolic compounds of Tulsi, have potential to covalently bind to the catalytic residue Cys145 of main protease and irreversibly inhibit the viral enzyme. Luteolin-7-O-glucuronide is specially considered for its optimum properties, namely, low toxicity (LD50 5000 mg/kg body weight), high drug-likeness score (0.71), the active site binding free energy (ΔGbind) -19.19 kcal/mol by GBSA method and covalent binding energy -24.23 kcal/mol. Further experimental validations are required to establish the theoretical findings.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.
