Abstract
Alkaline Phosphatases (APs) play a key role in maintaining a ratio of phosphate to inorganic pyrophosphate (Pi/PPi) and thus regulate extracellular matrix calcification during bone formation and growth. Among different isozymes of AP, aberrant increase in the level of tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP) is strongly associated with vascular calcification and end-stage renal diseases. In this context, we synthesized a novel series of fluorinated pyrimidone derivatives, i.e., 2-bromo-7-trifluoromethyl-5-oxo-5H-1,3,4-thiadiazolepyrimidones. The bromine functionality was further used for derivatisation by nucleophilic aromatic substitution using amines as nucleophiles as well as by Palladium catalysed Suzuki-Miyaura reactions. The synthesized derivatives were found potent but non-selective inhibitors of both isozymes of AP. Arylated thiadiazolopyrimidones exhibited stronger inhibitory activities than 2-amino-thiadiazolopyrimidones. The binding modes and possible interactions of the most active inhibitor within the active site of the enzyme were observed by molecular docking studies.
