Evaluation of the Antifungal Properties of Azomethine‐Pyrazole Derivatives from a Structural Perspective

ChemistryOpen, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2025.
A series of azomethine‐pyrazole derivatives bearing a para‐substituted azo‐phenyl ring is straightforwardly prepared. The new compounds display an elevated antifungal activity against various Candida species and Cryptococcus neoformans strains. DFT and molecular docking calculations are used to determine possible routes of action through interactions ...
