Hydrogen peroxide plays a crucial role in the melanogenesis process by regulating the activity of the key melanin-forming enzyme tyrosinase, responsible for the browning of fruits, vegetables, and seafood. Therefore, a molecule with dual activities, both efficient tyrosinase inhibition and strong hydrogen peroxide degrading ability, may act as a promising antibrowning agent. Herein, we report highly efficient selone-based mushroom tyrosinase inhibitors 2 and 3 with remarkable glutathione peroxidase (GPx) enzyme-like activity. The presence of benzimidazole moiety enhances the tyrosinase inhibition efficiency of selone 2 (IC50= 0.4 μM) by almost 600 times higher than imidazole-based selone 1 (IC50= 238 μM). Interestingly, the addition of another aromatic ring to the benzimidazole moiety has led to the development of an efficient lipid-soluble tyrosinase inhibitor 3 (IC50= 2.4 μM). The selenium center and the -NH group of 2 and 3 are extremely crucial to exhibit high GPx-like activity and tyrosinase inhibition potency. The hydrophobic moiety of the inhibitors (2 and 3) further assists them in tightly binding at the active site of the enzyme and facilitates the C═Se group to strongly coordinate with the copper ions. Inhibitor 2 exhibited excellent antibrowning and polyphenol oxidase inhibition properties in banana and apple juice extracts. © 2022 American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.
