Abstract

A new series of Bezafibrate derived hydrazide-hydrazone analogues were generated by using some five membered, fused heterocyclic and aromatic aldehydes. All the hydrazones were obtained in good yields from methanol at 60-80 °C for 5-8 hours stirring. Moreover, the compounds were also screened after their anti-oxidant activity potentiality at four different concentrations using DPPH method. Among these compounds, compound 6k analogue of bezafibrate was found to be the most active at all the tested concentrations (≈ 40% inhibition at 25 μg/mL ) followed by 6j (4-hydroxy, 3-methoxy 5-bromo analogue ≈ 35% at 25 μg/mL) compared to standard ascorbic acid (49.6% at 25 μg/mL).
