Previously, we designed and synthesized the 2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]indole-1,8(5H)-dione as a versatile structural platform to be functionalized to obtain potential DNA-interactive agents by intercalation and/or reversible enzyme inhibition. Herein, we report an alternative synthetic route for the preparation of this heterocyclic template as well as the synthesis of an its "two-armed" derivative. Also, a computational docking study to investigate the possible DNA-binding mode of well-known binders and title compound was performed.

Abstract

Previously, we designed and synthesized the 2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]indole-1,8(5H)-dione as a versatile structural platform to be functionalized to obtain potential DNA-interactive agents by intercalation and/or reversible enzyme inhibition. Herein, we report an alternative synthetic route for the preparation of this heterocyclic template as well as the synthesis of an its "two-armed" derivative. Also, a computational docking study to investigate the possible DNA-binding mode of well-known binders and title compound was performed.
