A new series of 4-((5-(2-chlorophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)methoxy)-N-(benzylidene
derivatives)benzenamine (5a-k) have been synthesized and were screened for their in vitro antibacterial
activity against Gram-positive bacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Streptococcus pyogenes),
Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus) and antifungal activity (Candida
albicans, Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus clavatus). Synthesized compounds were characterized by IR,
mass (MS), 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra. The synthesized compounds 5b, 5c, 5g and 5i showed
potency in terms of antimicrobial activity against tested microorganisms.
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.
