Abstract

The synthesized Schiff bases showed α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities with IC values ranging from 17.09 ± 0.72 to 45.34 ± 0.03 μM.

  • Inhibitory activity varied among the synthesized compounds, with some displaying significant activity against α-amylase and α-glucosidase.
  • Specific compounds exhibited IC values of 17.09 ± 0.72 μM for α-amylase and 16.35 ± 0.42 μM for α-glucosidase.
  • The reference drug, glimepiride, had lower IC values of 15.04 ± 0.02 μM for α-amylase and 13.02 ± 0.11 μM for α-glucosidase.
  • Structural differences in the synthesized analogues may influence their inhibitory activities on the targeted enzymes.
  • Molecular docking studies were performed to investigate binding interactions of the most active analogues with enzyme active sites.
