Summary: | In the present study, we characterize the biological activity of a newly designed and synthesized series of 15 compounds 2-[2-hydroxy-3-(4-substituted-1-piperazinyl)propyl] derivatives of pyrrolo[3,4-<i>c</i>]pyrrole <b>3a</b>-<b>3o</b>. The compounds were obtained with good yields of pyrrolo[3,4-<i>c</i>]pyrrole scaffold <b>2a</b>-<b>2c</b> with secondary amines in C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>5</sub>OH. The chemical structures of the compounds were characterized by <sup>1</sup>H-NMR, <sup>13</sup>C-NMR, FT-IR, and MS. All the new compounds were investigated for their potencies to inhibit the activity of three enzymes, i.e., COX-1, COX-2, and LOX, by a colorimetric inhibitor screening assay. In order to analyze the structural basis of interactions between the ligands and cyclooxygenase/lipooxygenase, experimental data were supported by the results of molecular docking simulations. The data indicate that all of the tested compounds influence the activity of COX-1, COX-2, and LOX. |
