Bis benzothiophene Schiff bases: synthesis and in silico-guided biological activity studies

Since benzo [b ] thiophene scaffold is one of the privileged structures in drug discovery as this core exhibitsactivities for different biological problems, in this study bis (benzo[b ]thiophene-2-yl) alkyl methanimine derivatives (1-9) were synthesized by reacting benzo[b ]thiophene-2-carbaldehyde with diamines. All newly compounds were characterized by IR, 1 H NMR and 13 C NMR spectroscopic methods. Synthesized compounds were investigated using binary QSARbased models on therapeutic activity prediction of synthesized compounds and they showed high predicted activities in following diseases: bacterial, angina, allergy, depression and obesity. Thus, they were then tested for their antimicrobial and antileishmanial activities as a result of this theoretical study. Compound 1(N, N’- (propane-1,3-diyl) bis (1-(benzo [b ] thiophene-2-yl)) methanimine) was found the most active compound in both diseases. Thus, its molecular docking studies were also carried out.
