Antimicrobial resistance is on the rise, and there aren’t enough new treatments to combat it. This might send the modern world back to the pre-antibiotic age. The molecular hybrids of pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine and triazole have been designed, synthesized, and analyzed for their drug-like molecule nature and in vitro analyses for their inhibition potentials against S. aureus and K. pneumoniae. The compounds 24 and 27 have been identified as the high potential molecules in this series based on in vitro experiments. Compound 24 has zone of inhibition values of 15 ± 0.82 mm and 14 ± 0.7 mm, whilst compound 27 has zone of inhibition values of 18 ± 0.95 mm and 16 ± 0.82 mm against S. aureus and K. pneumoniae, respectively. MIC and MIB values for compounds 24 and 27 against S. aureus and K. pneumoniae are 0.25 and 0.5, respectively.
