Introduction
Sulfonamide (sulfa drugs) has been the first drugs largely employed and systematically used as preventive and chemotherapeutic agents against meny diseases [1-4]. Triazoles are an essential category of heterocycles rings due to a wide range of pharmaceutical applications and synthetic medium [5,6]. Azo dye, aromatic rings associated together through azo (-N=N) chromophores, represent the largest category of dyes used in textile processing and other industries such as food colorant, printing, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries [7,8]. Chalcone derivatives contain α, β-unsaturated carbonyl moiety possesses broad spectrum of biological activity in both medicinal and pharmaceutical, such as antimicrobial [9], anti- inflammatory [10], Antitubercular [11], Antioxidant [12] and Anticancer [13].

Anti-microbial activity
The synthesized sulfonamide carrying azo,1,2,3-triazole, Schiff base, chalcone moieties which is accountable for antimicrobial activity. It seems that the compounds 7, 8 are very significant for activity against both bacterial for antimicrobial activity. All the compounds were found to exhibit moderate to good antifungal. Standard antibacterial medication (Ampicillin) and antifungal medication (Fluconazole) were utilized for comparison. The examinations have been performed in triplicate keeping in mind minimize blunders (Figure.5).
In vitro antioxidant screening
The antioxidant screening of sulfonamide derivatives was identified on the basis of their scavenging of the stable (DPPH) free radical. The results of antioxidant screening were depicted in (Table 2). DPPH radical scavenging is considered a good in vitro model and is widely reduced by an antioxidant compounds or a radical species to become a stable diamagnetic molecule. The potential is similar with antioxidant activity of ascorbic. The highest scavenger activity was observed in compounds 7,8 are probably due to the presence of azomethine and α, β-unsaturated group (Figure. 6).
Conclusion
Novel sulfonamide derivatives are prepared and characterized on the basis of analytical and spectral data. Screening of these compounds against pathogenic microorganism reveals that these sulfonamide derivatives showed moderate to noticeable antimicrobial and antioxidant activities.
