In this study, we present a comprehensive investigation of 2-amino-4,6-diphenylnicotinonitriles (APNs, -), including their synthesis, cytotoxicity against breast cancer cell lines, and photophysical properties. Compound demonstrates exceptional cytotoxicity, surpassing the potency of Doxorubicin. The fluorescence spectra of the synthesized - in different solvents reveal solvent-dependent shifts in the emission maximum values, highlighting the influence of the solvent environment on their fluorescence properties.

There is an urgent medical demand to acquire new antifungal drug-like compounds having azole nuclei to get rid of the drawbacks of the currently available azole antifungal agents.
Methods: The target compounds were synthesized in a four-step reaction sequence using the appropriate acetophenone derivative as a starting material.
During the last three decades the extent of life-threatening fungal infections has increased remarkably worldwide. Synthesis and structure elucidation of certain imidazole-semicarbazone conjugates ⁻ are reported. Single crystal X-ray analysis of compound unequivocally confirmed its assigned chemical structure and the ()-configuration of its imine double bond.

Although there are a large number of antifungal agents available, the desired clinical attributes for the treatment of fungal infections have not yet been achieved. Azoles are the mainstay class of the clinically used antifungal agents.
