A series of hydroxy- and methoxy-substituted paeonol thiosemicarbazone analogues were synthesized as potential tyrosinase inhibitors and their inhibitory effects on mushroom tyrosinase and inhibitory mechanism were evaluated. Paeonol thiosemicarbazone analogues have been found exhibiting more remarkable inhibition than their indexcompounds on mushroom tyrosinase. Among them, compound 2,4-dihydroxy acetophenone-4-phenyl-3-thiosemicarbazone (d(1)) had the most potent inhibition activity with the IC50 value of 0.006 +/- 0.001 mM, displayed as a reversible competitive inhibitor. The inhibitory ability of o- or p-substituted acetophenone thiosemicarbazones was: di-substituted acetophenone thiosemicarbazones > mono-substituted acetophenone thiosemicarbazones > non-substituted acetophenone thiosemicarbazones. Copper ions chelation assay explained that compound d(1) exhibited competitive inhibition by forming a chelate with the copper ions at the catalytic domain of tyrosinase as well as indicate a 1.5:1 binding ratio of compound d(1) with copper ions. In the fluorescence spectrum study, compound d(1) behaved stronger fluorescence quenching on tyrosinase towards d(1)-Cu2+ complex, inhibiting tyrosinase mainly by means of chelating the two copper ions in the active site. The newly synthesized compounds may serve as structural templates for designing and developing novel tyrosinase inhibitors. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
