Abstract
Background: Derivatization has been tremendously utilized in the field of drug discovery for optimizing the pharmacological properties and improving safety, efficacy and selectivity. Methodology: Schiff’s bases (AD1–AD11) are synthesized through amantadine condensation with different aldehydes and ketones. Fourier transform infrared, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, TLC, liquid chromatography mass spectrometry analysis, in silico studies, molecular docking and antiviral activity through hemagglutinin test were performed for evaluation of new compounds. Results: AD2, 3 and 9–11 showed greater antiviral activity than the parent drug. Among all derivatives, AD2 and AD3 exhibited good potential against α-amylase while AD7 and AD10 showed stronger inhibition against α-glucosidase. Conclusion: So, it is concluded that the most potent derivatives can be used as lead compounds in novel drug design of antiviral antidiabetic agents.

Author contributions
Managing research and investigation procedures, primarily synthesizing the new derivatives, or data collection was done by Z Yasmeen. MA Khan ideally formulated and supervised the research passionately. IA provided the relevant study materials, laboratory samples, reagents, laboratory samples and instrumentation. F Ullah did the programing and software development, designing of computer programs and implementation of the computer code. Management activities to annotate (produce metadata) and scrub data was done by Breena. MT Akram maintained the research data (including software code, where it is necessary for interpreting the data itself) for initial use and later re-use. MR Khan did the overall management and proof reading. All authors have read and agreed to the published version of the manuscript.
