dc.description.abstractIn this study, a series of new benzimidazole-thiadiazole hybrids were synthesized, and the synthesized compounds were screened for their antimicrobial activities against eight species of pathogenic bacteria and three fungal species. Azithromycin, voriconazole, and fluconazole were used as reference drugs in the mtt assay. Among them, compounds 5f and 5h showed potent antifungal activity against C. albicans with a MIC of 3.90 mu g/mL. Further, the results of the antimicrobial assay for compounds 5a, 5b, 5f, and 5h proved to be potent against E. faecalis (ATCC 2942) on the basis of an acceptable MIC value of 3.90 mu g/mL. The cytotoxic effects of compounds that are effective as a result of their antimicrobial activity on healthy mouse fibroblast cells (L929) were evaluated. According to HOMO-LUMO analysis, compound 5h (with the lower Delta E = 3.417 eV) is chemically more reactive than the other molecules, which is compatible with the highest antibacterial and antifungal activity results. A molecular docking study was performed to understand their binding modes within the sterol 14-alpha demethylase active site and to interpret their promising fungal inhibitory activities. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of the most potent compounds 5f and 5h were found to be quite stable in the active site of the 14-alpha demethylase (5TZ1) protein.
