Abstract

The elaboration of a new family of tetrapodal molecules L1–L3 bearing two pyrazole–tetrazole units is presented. The structure assigned to such molecules was verified by various techniques, including FTIR, NMR, HRMS and elemental analysis. The ability of these tetrapods to inhibit the growth of four fungal strains was examined, and the obtained results showed that they have some antifungal potency in the range of 12–16 mm. The alpha-amylase inhibition activity of these molecules was also evaluated. The obtained IC50 values (1.34 × 10−1–1.2 × 10−2 mg/mL) demonstrated that all compounds are potent enough to inhibit this enzyme much better than the positive control acarbose (2.6 × 10−1 mg/mL). A docking study on the porcine alpha-amylase was performed, and the results were in good correlation with the experimental results.
