A new series of 2-[3-(5-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-1-phenyl-1H-4-pyrazolyl]-3-aryl-1,3-thiazolan-4-one 5(a-i) have been designed, synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro antibacterial activity against Gram positive bacteria viz. Bacillus subtilis (ATCC 6633), Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 6538p), Micrococcus luteus (IFC 12708) and Gram negative bacteria viz. Proteus vulgaris (ATCC 3851), Salmonella typhimurium (ATCC 14028), Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922) the antifungal activity against Candida albicans (ATCC 10231), Aspergillus fumigatus (HIC 6094), Trichophyton rubrum (IFO 9185), Trichophyton mentagrophytes (IFO 40996). Antibacterial evaluation indicates that compounds containing 4-methoxyphenyl 5c, 4-fluorophenyl 5d and 2,5-difluorophenyl 5h groups on thiazolidinone ring showed significant activity equal to that of standard drug. The antifungal evaluation shows that compound 5c is highly active against A. fumigatus, compound 5d and 5h were also active against C. albicans and A. fumigatus.
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.
