Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of some pyridinium salts.

چکیده
Some substituted benzylidenehydrazinylpyridinium derivatives bearing benzyl, ethylphenyl and propylphenyl groups on the pyridinium nitrogen were synthesized and screened for possible antibacterial and antifungal activities against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Candida albicans using the microdilution method. Antimicrobial test results indicated that compounds containing a 3-phenylpropyl chain displayed the highest antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and the compound 3d was the most active in the series against all tested bacteria and fungi strains.

Synthesis of 1,5 and 2,5-disubstituted tetrazoles using NiO nanoparticles and their evaluation as antimicrobial agents
Treatments of tetrazolate salts prepared in situ from various aldehyde; malononitrile and sodium azide in the presence of NiO nanoparticles with benzyl bromide gave the corresponding 1,5- and 2,5-disubstituted tetrazoles. Reaction of tetrazolate salts with 2,4′-dibromoacetophenone in the presence of NiO nanoparticles provided the corresponding 2,5-disubstituted derivatives as an only isomer. T...

A series of bis-pyridinium quaternary ammonium salts (bis-PyQAs) with different aryl and heteroaryl moieties were synthesized and their antimicrobial activity investigated. The inhibition effect of the compounds was evaluated against bacteria, molds and yeasts; the activities were expressed as the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC). The relationships between the structure descriptors (logP...
متن کاملPetite mutagenesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by a series of bis-cationic trypanocidal drugs.
A group of bis-cationic imidazo[1,2-a]pyridinium salts and related compounds, some of which exhibit in vivo trypanocidal activity, have been investigated for induction of petite mutagenesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. All of the compounds which are active trypanocides induce mutagenesis. There appears to be a correlation between trypanocidal activity and mutagenic activity which may have its s...
متن کاملAn Eco-Friendly Ultrasound-Assisted Synthesis of Novel Fluorinated Pyridinium Salts-Based Hydrazones and Antimicrobial and Antitumor Screening.
The present work reports an efficient synthesis of fluorinated pyridinium salts-based hydrazones under both conventional and eco-friendly ultrasound procedures. The synthetic approach first involves the preparation of halogenated pyridinium salts through the condensation of isonicotinic acid hydrazide (1) with p-fluorobenzaldehyde (2) followed by the nucleophilic alkylation of the resulting N-(...

Pyridinium based ionic liquids derived from β-picoline and n-alkylbromides were synthesized by a simple procedure at ambient temperature and then characterized. These neutral ionic liquids were investigated for their dual role as the solvent and promoter for the selective synthesis of a series of N-monomethylanilines using dimethylcarbonate as the methylating agent. A solvent free gree...
