Substituted phenyl[(5-benzyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)sulfanyl]acetates/acetamides 9a-j were synthesized as alkaline phosphatase inhibitors. Phenyl acetic acid 1 through a series of reactions was converted into 5-benzyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thione 4. The intermediate oxadiazole 4 was then reacted with chloroacetyl derivatives of phenols 6a-f and anilines derivatives 8a-d to afford the title oxadiazole derivatives 9a-j. All of the title compounds 9a-j were evaluated for their inhibitory activity against human alkaline phosphatise (ALP). It was found that compounds 9a-j exhibited good to excellent alkaline phosphatase inhibitory activity especially 9h displayed potent activity with IC50 value 0.420 ± 0.012 μM while IC50 value of standard (KH2PO4) was 2.80 μM. The enzyme inhibitory kinetics of most potent inhibitor 9h was determined by Line-weaever Burk plots showing non-competitive mode of binding with enzyme. Molecular docking studies were performed against alkaline phosphatase enzyme (1EW2) to check the binding affinity of the synthesized compounds 9a-j against target protein. The compound 9h exhibited excellent binding affinity having binding energy value (?7.90 kcal/mol) compared to other derivatives. The brine shrimp viability assay results proved that derivative 9h was non-toxic at concentration used for enzyme assay. The lead compound 9h showed LD50 106.71 μM while the standard potassium dichromate showed LD50 0.891 μM. The DNA binding interactions of the synthesized compound 9h was also determined experimentally by spectrophotometric and electrochemical methods. The compound 9h was found to bind with grooves of DNA as depicted by both UV–Vis spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry with binding constant values 7.83 × 103 and 7.95 × 103 M?1 respectively revealing significant strength of 9h-DNA complex. As dry lab and wet lab results concise each other it was concluded that synthesized compounds, especially compound 9h may serve as lead compound to design most potent inhibitors of human ALP.
