Discovery of 4-aminochalcone-based dual α-glucosidase and aldose reductase inhibitors: in vitro, in vivo, and in silico studies

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder associated with persistent hyperglycemia and the development of numerous secondary complications. In the present study, a series of 4-aminochalcone derivatives (1N–10N) were synthesized and evaluated as potential dual inhibitors of α-glucosidase and aldose reductase usi...

Synthesis and multimodal characterization of flavonols: electrochemical, spectroscopic, and DFT approaches.

Five flavonols bearing electron-donating and electron-withdrawing substituents were synthesized and characterized by NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, UV-Vis spectroscopy, and cyclic voltammetry. Density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TDDFT) calculations were performed to investigate their molecular...
