Abstract

Synthesis of some 1,1'-diaryl-3,3'-(p-phenylenedicarbonyl)dithioureas was accomplished in two steps. Dithioureas were prepared under inert conditions with significantly high yields. Inhibitory activity of dithiourea compounds was investigated against urease enzyme. All the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their urease inhibitory activities, and molecular docking studies were carried out to ascertain the inhibitor binding mode with the enzyme. All the compounds displayed moderate to significant urease inhibitory activities.

Keywords: Dithioureas, urease inhibition activities, molecular docking, enzymes, inhibitor binding mode, in vitro, investigation.
