Benzofurans display a wide array of pharmaceutical activities. The present work incorporates the synthesis of some novel benzofuran derivatives. The compound 1 (z)-3-amino-7methoxy-N1-(2-oxoindolin-3-yliedene)benzofuran-2-carbohydrazide was synthesized by refluxing carbohydrazide and isatin. The compound 1 formed the key intermediate for the synthesis of compounds 2a-c. The structures of prepared derivatives were established by physical and spectral methods such as elemental analysis, FTIR, 1HNMR and Mass. The molecular docking studies was performed to detect the behavior of compounds towards target proteins. The derivatives were further screened for antibacterial and antifungal analysis.
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.
