DNA gyrase subunit B (1KZN) is an attractive target for antibacterial drug development because of its role in DNA replication. The fast development of antimicrobial medication resistance necessitates the quick discovery of new antimicrobial medicines.
The goal of this research was to design, synthesize, and discover benzo-fused five-membered nitrogen-containing heterocycles that bind to DNA gyrase subunit B via molecular docking (1KZN).
Based on literature research, 2-(1H-1,2,3-Benzotriazol-1-yl)-N-substituted acetamide was synthesized using an efficient method. All synthesized compounds were evaluated for antibacterial activity against three distinct organisms: E. coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus. In a docking investigation, the chemical interacts with the active site of DNA gyrase subunit B (1KZN), indicating that it might have antibacterial action.
According to the findings of this research, the compounds 3d and 3f showed antibacterial properties. For Staphylococcus aureus, 3c has the potential to be an antibacterial agent.
