Abstract

A series of benzothiazole based dispersed azo compounds were synthesized by diazotization of benzothiazole derivatives coupling with antipyrine through traditional electrophilic substitution reaction in the temperature range of 0–5 °C. The chemical structure of the prepared molecules (4a–f) was characterized by various analytical and spectroscopic techniques. Further, the theoretical vibrational and structural optimization studies of the molecules 4a–f were investigated by using DFT/B3LYP method. All the synthesized azo dyes were evaluated for their in vitro antimicrobial activities against various bacterial and fungal strains, and the obtained results were exhibited to be potent antimicrobial activities compared with the reference compound. Further, the molecular docking studies have been performed and results showed the possible interaction between the synthesized chemical compound and the receptor. In addition, the in vitro anticancer activity of all the synthesized azo dyes was performed against different human cancer cell lines such as A549, K562 and MDA-MB-231 by using MTT assay.
