Abstract
In continuation of our previous work, a series of furan-thiazolidinone hybrids was prepared by Knoevenagel condensation of 3-(furan-2-ylmethyl)-2-(phenylimino)-1, 3-thiazolidin-4-one with different aryl aldehydes in presence of strong base. Some members of the series exhibited remarkable antiamoebic activity and cell viability. Three compounds (3, 6 and 11) showed excellent binding energy for Entamoeba histolytica O-acetyle-l-serine sulfohydrolase and Entamoeba histolytica thioredoxin reductase. These compounds demonstrated significant inhibition of O-acetyle-l-serine sulfohydrolase. The promising antiamoebic activity and enzymatic assay of 3, 6 and 11 make them promising molecules for further lead optimization in the development of novel antiamoebic agents.
