To imbibe the aim of synthesizing water-soluble and biocompatible motif, a click-inspired piperazine glycoconjugate has been devised up. In this report, we present a focused approach to design and synthesis of versatile sugar-appended triazoles through 'Click Chemistry' along with their pharmacological studies on cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) and cell cytotoxicity on cancer cells using in silico and in vitro approaches, respectively. The study has inclusively recognized the galactose- and mannose-derived piperazine conjugates as the promising motifs. The findings suggested that the galactosyl bis-triazolyl piperazine analogue 10b is the most CDK interactive derivative and also possess significant anticancer activity.
