In this study, 23 different imidazole derivatives were synthesized, and the inhibitory properties of these derivatives against carbonic anhydrase I and II isoenzymes were investigated for the first time. The inhibition concentrations of the imidazole derivatives were found to be in the range of 2.89–115.5 nM. Docking studies examined the binding properties of the imidazole derivatives, and the structure–activity relationship is discussed. Theoretical calculations showed that the binding mode of the imidazole ring was non-zinc binding.

In this study, nine different C-2 aroyl imidazole derivatives were synthesized in a one pot reaction with two steps, and the reduction reactions of these derivatives with NaBH4 were carried out under mild conditions. Substitution reaction of obtained imid

Mono- or di-substituted imidazole derivatives were synthesized using a one-pot, two-step strategy. All imidazole derivatives were tested for AChE and BChE inhibition and showed nanomolar activity similar to that of the test compound donepezil and higher than that of tacrine. Structure activity relationship studies, docking studies to on X-ray crystal structure of AChE with PDB code 1B41, and adsorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) predictions were performed. The synthesized core skeleton was bound to important regions of the active site of AChE such as the peripheral anionic site (PAS), oxyanion hole (OH), and anionic subsite (AS). Selectivity of the reported test compounds was calculated and enzyme kinetic studies revealed that they behave as competitive inhibitors, while two of the test compounds showed noncompetitive inhibitory behavior. ADME predictions revealed that the synthesized molecules might pass through the blood brain barrier and intestinal epithelial barrier and circulate freely in the blood stream without binding to human serum albumin. While the toxicity of one compound on the WS1 (skin fibroblast) cell line was 1790 μM, its toxicity on the SH-SY5Y (neuroblastoma) cell line was 950 μM.
Sodium channel blocking activity and in-vivo testing of new phenylimidazole derivatives

We previously reported the discovery of diphenylimidazoles as potent sodium channel blockers, potentially useful in the treatment of epilepsy. In this work we further explore the structural requirements necessary for the potency of these derivatives with the aim to understand which structural modifications of the original scaffold could be tolerated in order to retain activity. We have synthesized new compounds working on the 2-position of the imidazole ring. First we have introduced a carbonyl spacer, that was subsequently reduced to alcohol. Both carbonyl and alcohol derivatives have been tested for their ability to block NaV1.6 sodium channel subtype in vitro and for their antiepileptic activity in rodent acute seizures models.
