Unsymmetrical thioureas were synthesized and then characterized by various spectroscopy techniques such as UV, IR, fast atom bombardment (FAB)-MS, high-resolution FAB-MS, H-NMR and C-NMR. Synthetic compounds were tested for their ability for antioxidant, lipoxygenase and xanthine oxidase activities. Compounds , , , and exhibited strong antioxidant potential, whereas compounds , , , and showed good to moderate lipoxygenase activity. Ten compounds demonstrated moderate xanthine oxidase inhibition. Compound displayed the highest potency among the series, exhibiting good antioxidant, lipoxygenase and xanthine oxidase activities. Theoretical calculations using density functional theory and molecular docking studies supported the experimental findings, indicating the potential of the synthesized compounds as potent antioxidants, lipoxygenases and xanthine oxidase agents.
