A series of novel 1-(benzamide)-N-cyclopropyl-2-(amino substituted)-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyrimidine-5carboxamide derivatives is synthesised and characterized by IR, 1 H and 13 C NMR, and mass spectra. The synthesized compounds 6a-6j and 8a-8j are screened for their in vitro antimicrobial activity against two Grampositive (Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis) and two Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli, Klebesiella aerogenes), and two pathogenic fungi (Aspergillus flavus, Fusarium oxysporum). Most of the compounds demonstrate good to excellent antimicrobial activity in comparison with the standard drugs ciproflaxin and hymexazole. Among the screened compounds morpholine substituted dihydropyrimidone carboxamide 8j is determined to be the most potent anti-bacterial agent.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
