The ambident electrophilic character of the 5-bromo-2-hydroxychalcones and the binucleophilic nature of 2-aminothiophenol were exploited to construct the 2-aryl-4-(4-bromo-2-hydroxyphenyl)benzo[1,5]thiazepines. The structures and conformation of these 2-aryl-4-(4-bromo-2-hydroxyphenyl)benzo[1,5]thiazepines were established with the use of spectroscopic techniques complemented with a single crystal X-ray diffraction method. Both ¹H-NMR and IR spectroscopic techniques confirmed participation of the hydroxyl group in the intramolecular hydrogen-bonding interaction with a nitrogen atom. SC-XRD confirmed the presence of a six-membered intramolecularly hydrogen-bonded pseudo-aromatic ring, which was corroborated by the DFT method on 2b as a representative example in the gas phase. Compounds 2a (Ar = -C₆H₅), 2c (Ar = -C₆H₄(4-Cl)) and 2f (Ar = -C₆H₄(4-CH(CH₃)₂) exhibited increased inhibitory activity against α-glucosidase compared to acarbose (IC₅₀ = 7.56 ± 0.42 µM), with IC₅₀ values of 6.70 ± 0.15 µM, 2.69 ± 0.27 µM and 6.54 ± 0.11 µM, respectively. Compound 2f, which exhibited increased activity against α-glucosidase, also exhibited a significant inhibitory effect against α-amylase (IC₅₀ = 9.71 ± 0.50 µM). The results of some computational approaches on aspects such as noncovalent interactions, calculated binding energies for α-glucosidase and α-amylase, ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion) and bioavailability properties, gastrointestinal absorption and blood–brain barrier permeability are also presented.
