Abstract

A series of Schiff base triazoles 1–25 was synthesized and evaluated for their nucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase-1 inhibitory activities. Among twenty-five compounds, three compounds 10 (IC50 = 132.20 ± 2.89 lM), 13 (IC50 = 152.83 ± 2.39 lM), and 22 (IC50 = 251.0 ± 6.64 lM) were identified as potent inhibitors with superior activities than the standard EDTA (IC50 = 277.69 ± 2.52 lM). The newly identified inhibitors may open a new avenue for the development of treatment of phosphodiesterase-I related disorders. These compounds were also evaluated for carbonic anhydrase, acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase inhibitory potential and were found to be inactive. The compounds showed non-toxic effect towards PC3 cell lines.
