Synthesis, Antimicrobial Evaluation, DFT, in Silico-Docking, and ADMET Investigations of Novel Chromene-Based 2,4-Thiazolidinediones.

Three series of thiazolidinedione (TZD) derivatives (5a-f, 7a-f, and 9a-f) were prepared efficiently. Afterward, the synthesized candidates' antibacterial efficacy against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria was assessed. Compounds 7c, 7d, and 7f had values comparable to that of ampicillin, a reference antibiotic, whereas compounds 5c, 5d, and 7e exhibited the greatest values (23.
