dc.description.abstract A straightforward method for synthesizing four new asymmetric Aldazine Schiff base derivatives using aromatic aldehydes and hydrazine precursors was successfully demonstrated under moderate conditions. These compound are designated as follows: 1-((E)-(((E)-2-ethoxy benzylidene) hydrazineylidene) methyl)naphthalene-2-ol (2-EHMN) (L1), 1-((4-ethoxy benzylidene) hydrazineylidene) methyl) naphthalene-2-ol (4-EHMN) (L2), 1-((2‑hydroxy-4-methoxybenzylidene) hydrazineylidene) methyl) naphthalene-2-ol (HMHMN) (L3), and 1-((2‑chloro-6-hydroxyybenzylidene) hydrazineylidene) methyl) naphthalene-2-ol (CHHMN) (L4). The compounds obtained were analyzed via FT-IR, 1H-/13CNMR spectroscopy, HRMS spectrometry techniques, and elemental analysis. Infrared (IR) spectroscopy, UV–Vis spectroscopy, and accurate melting point determination all contribute to the improved study of synthesised compounds. A comprehensive solubility analysis was conducted for all synthesized compounds, demonstrating their solubility in dichloromethane (DCM), tetrahydrofuran (THF), and dimethylformamide (DMF). Thermoanalytical studies of all the ligands were also examined and compared. Furthermore, a single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) analysis of L1 was conducted using a single-crystal diffractometer, with unit cell calculations and data collection performed using MoKα radiation (λ = 0.7107 Å). Density functional theory (DFT) computations were used to optimise the structures of molecules and assess reactivity, durability, and electronic characteristics of the developed ligands. Molecular docking of L1, L2, and L3 has been done in different proteins, which gives precise results to show the activity for cytotoxicity and antibacterial studies. In silico, the ADME process calculations showed that the synthesised compounds have favourable drug-like features. In vitro antibacterial (L2 and L3) and cytotoxicity (L1) tests were also performed to assess their efficacy as therapeutic agents. en_US
