Abstract

 

Continued research on pyrazoline derivatives with excellent biological activities has encouraged us to design and synthesize 1,3,5-trisubstituted pyrazoline series introducing NiFe2O4.Cu(OH)2 magnetic nanocomposite as a heterogeneous catalyst by the combination of highly substituted aryl aldehydes, substituted acetophenones, and acetyl hydrazine hydrate under ultrasound irradiation at 50oC. The NiFe2O4.Cu(OH)2 magnetic nanocomposite materials are characterized by X-ray diffraction and Transmission electron microscopy. The characterized title compounds were studied for theoretical DFT studies using Spartan-14 software and molecular docking studies with Autodock Vina and Discovery Studio software to examine their antifungal activity efficiency against CaCYP51 (PDB ID-5EQB).

  Highlights
