Cinnamyl Schiff bases: synthesis, cytotoxic effects and antifungal activity of clinical interest

Abstract: Significance and Impact of the Study: The occurrence and severity of fungal infections have increased in recent decades due to resistance to available antifungal drugs and the appearance of new emerging pathogens. Thus, the search for new antifungal agents is mandatory. From a series of 23 cinnamyl Schiff bases, two compounds (1 and 23) were interrogated as new anticryptococcal agents without significant cytotoxicity against human lung, kidney or red blood cells. In turns, these new Schiff bases are lead compo… Show more

“…Thus, it was tested against a larger panel of multidrug-resistant C. auris strains (TDG2506, TDG2512, TDG1102, TDG2211, NCPF8984, NCPF8977 and NCPF8971), and its antifungal activity was confirmed with MICs of 4–16 µg/mL, which are very low considering that in four cases (TDG2506, TDG1102, TDG2211 and NCPF8984) the MIC value for fluconazole was ≥128 µg/mL. Compound 41 showed the same results of 40 only on the extended panel [ 64 ].…”

“…Some of the materials reported earlier showed higher antibacterial activity than ciprofloxacin [37]. Antifungal activity of cinnamyl Schiff bases [38] and resistivity of sulphonamides Schiff bases against multidrug-resistant fungi [39] also expose the antimicrobial activity of Schiff base compound.…”

“…There are reports of high activity in compounds containing an azomethine moiety against multidrug-resistant bacterial strains, e.g., S. aureus (especially methicillin-resistant S. aureus , MRSA) or Staphylococcus epidermidis , including reports of stronger effects than reference drugs such as ciprofloxacin [ 26 , 34 ]. Compounds from the group of Schiff bases also exhibited a higher activity than the reference fluconazole against multidrug-resistant pathogenic fungi classified as Candida [ 34 , 35 , 36 ].…”
