Naringenin-Based Oximes and Hydrazones: Synthesis, Molecular Docking with Bovine Serum Albumin and Drug-Likeness, Admet Profiling Studies

Abstract

Scientists are now increasingly interested in the flavonoid molecule naringenin due to the broad spectrum of biological roles it conducts. Oximes and hydrazones were created employing derivatives of the naringenin-active substances 7-piperidinethoxy and 7-morpholinethoxy to contribute to this research. The ability of the produced compounds to bind to BSA was determined by molecular docking and their potential as medications was assessed using various methods. Based on Lipinski's rule of five, none of the substances were hazardous or carcinogenic, and their blood-brain barrier crossing values were all within permissible limits.
