Arylidene Carbazole Carbohydrazides: Synthesis and Characterization

Abstract

Because of the wide range of pharmacological activities and their distinctive structural features hydrazones and carbazole alkaloids have attracted considerable attention in medicinal chemistry. In this study, new carbazole acyl hydrozones (3a-k) which may have high biological activity potential, were synthesized with condensation reaction between carbazole hydrazide and benzaldehyde derivatives. After determination of the melting points of all synthesized derivatives, their structures were identified by FT-IR and 1 H-NMR spectroscopic methods.

Keywords
