Synthesis and QSAR Studies on the Antifungal Activity of 2,3,4‐Substituted Thiazolidines

Abstract: 2,3,4-Substituted Thiazolidines were synthesized and explored for antifungal activity against Candida albicans, Cryptococcus neoformans, Tricophyton mentagrophyte and Aspergillus fumigatus. The 2D-and 3D-QSAR studies indicate the usefulness of this skeleton as a potential scaffold to explore new antifungal agents. The activity of these compounds against Candida albicans appears to be non-specific. For the remaining three fungal organisms, the 3D-equations identified are based on three biophoric centers. In cas… Show more

“…Combinatorial Protocol in Multiple Linear Regression (CP-MLR) [13] is one approach to generate multiple QSAR models to address the structure-activity relations in terms of different sub-structural regions and attributes in predicting the activity. As a part of our ongoing interest in thiazolidines as potent drug scaffolds [14], CP-MLR and partial least squares (PLS) analysis based QSAR studies of the HIV-1 RT inhibitory activity of the thiazolidinones [11,12] have been carried out with an objective to explore the predictive and diagnostic aspects of different sub-structural regions and attributes in addressing the chosen phenomenon.…”

“…Eigenvalue describes the shape of the molecule and polarizability is an indication of ease to induce a dipole moment. QSAR studies carried out on antifungal activity of substituted thiazolidines lead to the conclusions that steric and electronic properties are the essential parameters [8]. QSAR models for the mutagenicity and carcinogenicity of simple aldehydes and unsaturated aldehydes pointed to the role of electrophilicity, bulkiness, and hydrophobicity as the important parameters [20].…”

“…Wiktorowicz et al have studied the quantitative structure activity relationships of a series of imidazole derivatives as potential new antifungal drugs [7]. Prabhakar et al have synthesised 2,3,4-substituted thiazolidines and studied their antifungal activity against Candida albicans, Cryptococcus neoformans, Tricophyton mentagrophyte and Aspergillus fumigatus [8]. The present paper discusses experimental and QSAR studies carried out on a set of organic compounds tested for their antifungal activity against Aspergillus niger and Fusarium Rosium.…”
