Synthesis of novel Schiff bases using green chemistry techniques; antimicrobial, antioxidant, antiurease activity screening and molecular docking studies

Abstract

Schiff base derivatives were synthesized in this study via conventional, microwave irradiation and ultrasound sonication methods. Optimization conditions were examined for several parameter such as solvent, reaction time and yield. After determining the optimization conditions, the compounds were synthesized by using ultrasound sonication. The structures of the synthesized compounds were examined by spectral data, and the antiurease, antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of the Schiff bases derivatives were investigated due to the imine group (-CN-) and promising results were obtained. The enzyme inhibitory potentials of these compounds were further validated through molecular docking studies. Also, In Silico ADME prediction studies were calculated for compounds.
