4-(4-(((1H-Benzo[d][1,2,3]triazol-1-yl)oxy)methyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-7-chloroquinoline

Abstract

The 1,2,3-triazole ring system can be easily obtained by widely used copper-catalyzed click reaction of azides with alkynes. 1,2,3-triazole exhibits myriad of biological activities, including antibacterial antimalarial, and antiviral activities. We herein reported the synthesis of quinoline-based [1,2,3]-triazole hybrid derivative via Cu(I)-catalyzed click reaction of 4-azido-7-chloroquinoline with alkyne derivative of hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBt). The compound was fully characterized by proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR), carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (13C-NMR), correlated spectroscopy (1H-1H-COSY), heteronuclear single quantum coherence (HSQC) and distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer (DEPT-135 and DEPT-90) NMR, ultraviolet (UV) and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopies, and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). Computational studies were enrolled to predict the interaction of the synthesized compound with acetylcholinesterase, a target of primary relevance for developing new therapeutic options to counteract neurodegeneration. Moreover, the drug-likeness of the compound was also investigated by predicting its pharmacokinetic properties.
