The briskened urge to develop potential antibacterial candidates against multidrug-resistant pathogens has motivated the present research study. Herein, newly synthesized coumarin derivatives with azomethine and amino-methylated as the functional groups have been focused on their antibacterial efficacy. The study proposed two distinct series: 3-acetyl substituted coumarin derivatives, followed by the Schiff base approach (5a-5i), and formaldehyde-secondary cyclic amine-based derivatives (7a-7g), using the Mannich base approach, further the compounds have been confirmed through various spectral studies.

Surgery, hormonal therapy, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy are the current treatment modalities. Site-directed nanotherapeutics, engineered with multidimensional functionality are now the frontrunners in breast cancer diagnosis and treatment.

DNA gyrase, as a bacterial target has been in trend for developing newer antibacterial candidates due to its absence in higher eukaryotes. The fluoroquinolones are the leading molecules in the drug discovery pipeline for gyrase inhibition due to its diversity.

The structures of the obtained compounds were confirmed by H/C NMR, FT-IR, elemental analysis, purity and the retention time was analyzed by HPLC. Based upon the binding affinity in the molecular docking studies, we have synthesized different imidazole derivatives from which compound 6c have been found to show more anti-proliferative activity by inducing apoptosis at a higher rate than the other compounds corroborating the in-silico prediction.

The cancer-related death rate has had an ascending trend, despite the implementation of numerous treatment strategies or the discovery of an array of potent molecules against several pathways of cancer growth. The need of the hour is to prevent the multidrug resistance toll, and the current efforts have been bestowed upon a versatile small molecule scaffold, coumarin (benz[α]pyrone), a natural compound possessing interesting affinity toward the cancer target human carbonic anhydrase (hCA), focusing on hCA I, II, IX, and XII.

Indazole, an important fused aromatic heterocyclic system containing benzene and pyrazole ring with a chemical formula of C H N , is also called benzopyrazole. Indazoles consist of three tautomeric forms in which 1H-tautomers (indazoles) and 2H-tautomers (isoindazoles) exist in all phases.

For antibacterial activity, the synthesised compounds were evaluated against three UTI (Urinary Tract Infection) bacterial strains including and . Furthermore, the designed compounds were docked with bacterial DNA gyrase and dihydropteroate synthase.
