A series of novel chalcone-based benzothiazoles as brugia malayi thymidylate kinase inhibitors have been synthesized and evaluated for their Brugia malayi thymidylate kinase(BmTMK)enzyme inhibition activity.Their selectivity towards BmTMK was studied.The prepared compound 1 was found to show strong interactions with the BmTMK active site.Molecular docking study revealed that the interactions was corroborated well with their antifilarial activities in vitro from the experimental results.These prepared benzothiazole derivatives are selective towards the BmTMK enzyme and may be served as potential therapeutic agents against filariasis.
