  • A computational study was carried out on a series of twenty compounds of novel 4-(N,N-diarylmethylamines) furan-2(5H)-one derivatives against Aphis craccivora insect. Optimization of the compounds was performed with the aid of Spartan 14 software using DFT/B3LYP/6-31G** quantum mechanical method. Using PaDel descriptor software to calculate the descriptors, Generic Function Approximation (GFA) was employed to generate the model. Model 1 found to be the optimal out of four models generated which has the following statistical parameters; R2 = 0.871489, R2adj = 0.83644, cross-validated R2 = 0.790821, and external R2 = 0.550768. Molecular docking study occurred between the compounds and the complex crystal structure of the acetylcholine (protein AChBP) (PDB CODE 2zju) in which compound ...

  • The docking result demonstrates that compound 28 best inhibits V600E-BRAF when compared with other compounds within the dataset. This compound was used as a template in designing novel anticancer compounds by attaching some favorable substituents. The docking results of the designed compounds revealed a good MolDock score (< − 90), which showed that all the compounds can efficiently bind with the active sites of the target, out of which two analogous (N1 and N3) were considered optimal that outperformed vemurafenib, the FDA-approved V600E-BRAF inhibitor. Furthermore, these compounds passed the drug-likeness criteria (Lipinski’s rule) successfully and were found to be orally bioavailable. Also, the designed compounds were found to have good pharmacokinetics absorption, distribution, ...
