Abstract The present work describes synthesis, characterization and biological evaluations of a hybrid compound 10 composed of two intriguing scaffolds pyrazole and thiazolidin-2,4-di-one. The title compound was obtained via multi-step reaction and characterized by a number of techniques (viz. IR, UV–Visible, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and MS) including X-ray crystallography. The structural and photophysical data of compound 10 were well supported by theoretical calculations performed at density functional (DFT) level. In-vitro anticancer studies on different human cancer cell lines indicated moderate to low activity of the compounds. The molecular target of the compound was predicted through in-silico studies. Finding of the studies are presented herein.
