A series of thiosemicarbazides with 4-nitrophenyl group was obtained in the reaction of carboxylic acid hydrazides with isothiocyanates. All compounds were checked for their antibacterial and antiproliferative activity. Our results have shown that derivatives 6-8 possessed antibacterial activity against S. aureus, S. epidermidis, S. mutans and S. sanguinis, moderate cytotoxicity and good therapeutic safety in vitro. Additionally, compounds 1 and 4 significantly inhibited A549, HepG2 and MCF-7 cell division. Moreover, PASS software indicated that newly obtained compounds are potential α-glucosidase inhibitors. This was confirmed by in vitro studies. To investigate the mode of interaction with the molecular target compounds were docked to glucose binding site of the enzyme and exhibited a similar binding mode as glucose.
