Popis: A series of methoxy substituted pyrazole based pyrazoline derivatives (4a-j) were synthesized in good to excellent yield from corresponding pyrazole-chalcones (3a-j). All synthesized derivatives were characterized and screened for their in vitro anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antidiabetic, and antibacterial activities. Among the series, compounds 4f, 4j, 4a, and 4i showed better anti-inflammatory activity as compared to diclofenac sodium. In DPPH free radical scavenging assay, all the compounds were shown excellent activity and moderate to good activity in SO and NO free radical scavenging assay as compared to standard ascorbic acid. Antibacterial screening of synthesized pyrazolines showed that compounds 4f and 4j have significant antibacterial activity. The compounds 4j, 4f, 4h, 4a, and 4c have shown comparable inhibition of alpha-amylase enzyme leading to good antidiabetic activity as compared to standard acarbose. Molecular docking studies suggest that these compounds have strong binding with COX-2 and alpha-amylase enzyme due to significant capability of aromatic and hydrophobic interaction. The outstanding results of reported compounds in all biological screening will pave the way for the design of new drug candidate bearing pyrazole moiety.
