5-(Cyanomethyl)-3-((5,5-dimethyl-3-oxocyclohex-1-en-1-yl)amino)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile (3) is used as a key for the synthesis of arylidenes 5a-fvia its reaction with some aldehydes 4a-f. 5-[(5,5-Dimethyl-3-oxocyclohex-1-en-1-yl)amino]-3-(2-imino-2H-chromen-3-yl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile (7) was synthesized via the reaction of compound (3) with 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde in EtOH/piperidine. The target compounds were tested against cotton leafworm larvae in their second and fourth instar. The available data demonstrated that the LC50 values for commercial phenylpyrazole were 3.37 mg/L and 4.55 mg/L for the most affected synthesized compound, 5b. The chemical structure of compound 5b has two cyano moieties, a pyrazole ring and a chlorophenyl, which may be increasing it efficiency. Evaluation of the latent effects of the examined synthesized compounds on various biological parameters, including adult longevity, pupal weight, proportion of normal, deformed pupae, adult emergency, fecundity, and egg hatchability, was done in an additional effort to slightly improve insecticidal compounds. Twelve synthesized compounds were subjected to a molecular docking analysis against glutamate-activated chloride channels. Twelve artificial compounds with the PDB ID of 4COF were subjected to a molecular docking study against the gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor (GABA)., (© 2024 Wiley‐VCH GmbH.)

The main target of the current framework is the designing and synthesizing of novel iron(III), cobalt(II), and cupper(II) complex compounds emanating from bioactive nucleus, 4-hydroxy-2H-pyrano[3,2- c ]quinoline-2,5(6H)-dione ligand, to enhance comprehension as potential antibacterial, antifungal, and antioxidant alternatives by means of using DFT calculations and molecular docking investigation. Thus, the new complexes had been synthesized and characterized using various analytical techniques, including elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, UV spectroscopy, conductivity, and magnetic testing, as well as thermal analysis. The 4-hydroxy-2H-pyrano[3,2- c ]quinoline-2,5(6H)-dione ligand exhibits monobasic bidentate OO donor properties toward the metal core, as shown by its infrared spectroscopic characteristics. The use of thermal analysis techniques allows for the identification and characterization of water molecules present inside the complexes, as well as the determination of their distribution patterns. The molecular structures of free ligand and its metal complex compounds have been verified through the use of density functional theory (DFT) simulations. These simulations also provide a valuable understanding of the quantum chemical characteristics associated with these structures. In vitro experiments were conducted to evaluate the antioxidant, antibacterial, as well as antifungal and the properties of the free ligand and its corresponding complex compounds. DATA revealed that synthesized metal complex compounds have heightened biological efficacy as related to the unbound ligand. Furthermore, molecular docking analysis was done to understand the interactions between the studied compounds and proteins derived from Escherichia coli (pdb ID: 2vf5), Aspergillus flavus (pdb ID: 3cku), and humans (pdb ID: 5IJT), which are considered to be significant in drug design. Lastly, a correlation between in vitro efficacies with molecular docking data was done and analyzed., Competing Interests: The authors declare no competing financial interest., (© 2024 The Authors.
