Abstract: Carvacrol and thymol are well-known phenolic monoterpenoids present as functional ingredients in numerous products. Keeping the diverse therapeutic activities of phenolic monoterpenes in mind, we attempted to synthesize a new series of acetohydrazone linkage containing carvacrol and thymol derivatives. All synthesized derivatives were characterized by spectroscopic techniques. Finally, all the derivatives were screened for their anti-oxidant activities by using DPPH assay, and anticancer activities by using SRB assay against pancreatic cancer with the MIAPaCa-2 cell line and colon cancer with the HCT-15 cell line. Themolecular docking studies of all the synthesized derivatives were carried out on the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) protein enzyme. In the anti-oxidant test, EC50 values of all the compounds showed excellent anti-oxidant potency, and similarly the values of GI50 in the anticancer test displayed that most of the compounds possess good anticancer potency. Total docking results suggested that all the synthesized compounds exhibit good binding affinity towards receptors.

A series of novel N-substituted hydrazide derivatives were synthesized by reacting atranorin, a compound with a natural depside structure (1), with a range of hydrazines. The natural product and 12 new analogues (2–13) were investigated for inhibition of α-glucosidase. The N-substituted hydrazide derivatives showed more potent inhibition than the original. The experimental results were confirmed by docking analysis. This study suggests that these compounds are promising molecules for diabetes therapy. Molecular dynamics simulations were carried out with compound 2 demonstrating the best docking model using Gromac during simulation up to 20 ns to explore the stability of the complex ligand-protein. Furthermore, the activity of all synthetic compounds 2–13 against a normal cell line HEK293, used for assessing their cytotoxicity, was evaluated.

A reliable and high-yielding one-pot sequence for the removal of O-carboxymethyl moieties from phenols is presented. When diethylphosphoryl azide is employed as the azide transfer reagent in the Curtius rearrangement and glycerol in the subsequent hydrolytic workup, the protocol can be reliably applied to a very broad scope of substrates.
