Synthesis, spectroscopic analysis, DFT, docking, MD and antioxidant activity of tetrahydrocurcumin.
Journal of Biomolecular Structure & Dynamics 2023 October 31
In recent years, numerous researchers have made local chemical modifications to the structure of curcumin while its basic structure remains unchanged, thus, producing curcumin derivatives. In this article, tetrahydrocurcumin was obtained by hydrogenation of curcumin, DFT calculation and characterization at the theoretical level of B3LYP/6 -311++G(d,p) were carried out. The observed IR and Raman spectra are in good agreement with the theoretical spectra. The FMO and ESP of tetrahydrocurcumin are predicted. The interaction in the system is shown graphically and analyzed by IGMH. Compared with curcumin, tetrahydrocurcumin lacks the unsaturated C = C bond, which makes it more stable and more bioavailable. Molecular docking with antioxidant targets elucidated the ligand-protein interaction and molecular dynamics simulation showed the antioxidant activity of tetrahydrocurcumin. The antioxidant activity of tetrahydrocurcumin was proved by DPPH• and •OH radical scavenging experiments. In essence, these derivatives exhibit enhanced physiological activity in certain aspects compared to the original curcumin. Moreover, the computational pharmacology techniques lay a theoretical groundwork for the development and modification of high-efficiency, low-toxicity drugs that interface with various targets of curcumin in the future.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.
