Abstract
The current work involves the use of dehydroacetic acid based chalcone derivatives for the synthesis of spirooxindole grafted pyrrolidine moieties. All the synthesized compounds have been characterized using spectroscopic techniques such as NMR (1H-NMR and 13C-NMR), IR, mass and elemental analysis. Molecular mechanics studies were performed to comprehend the regioselectivity in the product formation. Molecular docking of the synthesized compounds was performed with few bacterial proteins of Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa responsible for biofilm formation followed by molecular dynamics simulations with the potential lead compound. Further, to corroborate the results obtained via in silico study, anti-biofilm activity etc. of the synthesized compounds (4a–e) was checked for effectiveness against biofilm formation. Taken together, this study opens up to explore these compounds’ multiple roles in diverse fields in the arena of medical sciences.
