This study reports the synthesis of new thiazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives and their characterization using computational methods including SwissADME analysis for drug-likeness prediction and density functional theory (DFT) calculations for molecular properties. The researchers evaluated the pharmacokinetic properties, physicochemical characteristics, and electronic structure of these compounds to assess their potential as pharmaceutical candidates. The combination of experimental synthesis with computational screening provides insight into structure-activity relationships and helps identify promising lead compounds.


Thiazolidine-2,4-diones are an important class of compounds with antidiabetic properties, and new derivatives may offer improved efficacy or safety profiles. The integration of computational prediction tools early in drug development can reduce costs and accelerate the identification of viable therapeutic candidates before extensive laboratory testing.
