A NEW series of Bezafibrate derived hydrazide-hydrazone analogues were generated by using some five membered, fused heterocyclic and aromatic aldehydes. All the hydrazones were obtained in good yields from methanol at 60-80 °C for 5-8 hours stirring. Moreover, the compounds were also screened for their anti-oxidant activity potentiality at four different concentrations using DPPH method. Among these compounds, compound 6k analogue of bezafibrate was found to be the most active at all the tested concentrations (≈ 40% inhibition at 25 μg/mL) followed by 6j (4-hydroxy, 3-methoxy 5-bromo analogue ≈ 35% at 25 μg/mL) compared to standard ascorbic acid (49.6% at 25 μg/mL).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
