Resumo

The molecular structures of the halotelluroxetanes p-MeOC6H4Te(X){[}C(= C(H)X')C(CH2)(n)O], X = X' = Cl and n = 6 (1) and X = Cl, X' = Br and n = 5 (4), show similar binuclear aggregates sustained by [center dot center dot center dot Te-O](2) cores comprising covalent Te-O and secondary Te center dot center dot center dot O interactions. The resulting C2ClO2 (lone-pair) sets define pseudooctahedral geometries. In each structure, C-X center dot center dot center dot pi(arene) interactions lead to supramolecular layers. Literature studies have shown these and related compounds (i.e. 2: X = X' = Cl and n = 5; 3: X = X' = Br and n = 5) to inhibit Cathepsins B, K, L and S to varying extents. Molecular docking calculations have been conducted on ligands (i.e. cations derived by removal of the tellurium-bound X atoms) 1'-3' (note 3' = 4') enabling correlations between affinity for sub-sites and inhibition. The common feature of all docked complexes was the formation of a Te-S covalent bond with cysteine residues, the relative stability of the ligands with an E-configuration and the formation of a C-O center dot center dot center dot pi interaction with the phenyl ring; for 1' the Te-S covalent bond was weak, a result correlating with its low inhibition profile. At the next level differences are apparent, especially with respect to the interactions formed by the organic-ligand-bound halides. While these atoms do not form specific interactions in Cathepsins B and K, in Cathepsin L, these halides are involved in C-O center dot center dot center dot X halogen bonds. (AU)
