A series of (1,4)-naphthoquinono [3,2-c]-1H-pyrazoles and their (1,4)-naphthohydroquinone derivatives 2-7 were synthesized and evaluated for antifungal, antibacterial, and anticancer activities. The structure-activity relationship of these compounds was studied and the results show that the compound 2b exhibited in vitro antifungal
