In this paper, we have reported the synthesis of a series of heterocyclic azo dyes containing 4-hydroxy coumarin by diazo-coupling reaction. The structural aspect of the newly synthesized compounds was accomplished by various physico-chemical techniques like UV-Visible, FT-IR, NMR, and mass spectrometry. The computational calculations and geometrical optimization of the newly synthesized azo dyes were investigated by using Gaussian software with the help of Density functional theory (DFT)/B3LYP method using 6-31G(d,p) basis set at gaseous phase. Also, the quantum chemical parameters were evaluated to understand the structural activity concept of the dyes. The pharmacological efficacy of the azo dyes was investigated by antimicrobial, antitubercular, DNA cleavage and in silico molecular docking studies. All the newly synthesized compounds were able to exhibit significant inhibitory activity against tested microbes. Further, the in silico molecular docking showed effective binding properties of the compounds against RpsA target receptor.
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.
