Design, synthesis, in silico studies, and evaluation of novel chalcones and their pyrazoline derivatives for antibacterial and antitubercular activities
chalcones (3a–3p) and their pyrazoline derivatives (4a–4h) were synthesized using substituted acetophenones, substituted naphthaldehydes, and hydrazine hydrate as starting materials. All the synthesized compounds were characterized by IR, NMR, and massspectrometric analysis and screened for antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (ATCC 27924) and antibacterial activity against
