Abstract:Diabetes is an emerging disorder in the world and is caused due to the imbalance of insulin production as well as serious effects on the body. In search of a better treatment for diabetes, we designed a novel class of 1,3,4-thiadiazole-bearing Schiff base analogues and assessed them for the α-glucosidase enzyme. In the series (1−12), compounds are synthesized and 3 analogues showed excellent inhibitory activity against αglucosidase enzymes in the range of IC 50 values of 18.10 ± 0.20 to 1.10 ± 0.10 μM. In this… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
