Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of new Thiazole-2(3H)-thiones containing 1, 1, 3-trisubstituted Cyclobutane

The reaction of potassium salts of RNHCSSK with 2-chloro-1-(3-methyl-3-phenylcyclobutyl)ethan-1-one in ethanol at 78-80°C afforded new 1, 3-thiazole-2(3H)-thiones containing 1, 1, 3-trisubstituted cyclobutane rings at C-4. The antimicrobial activities of these compounds were also investigated against seven different microorganisms, and some of them were found to be active against several of the microorganisms at higher concentrations.

3-(Substituted Aryl)-1-benzofuranyl-2-propenones: Antimicrobial Properties of Some Chalcones-Type Compounds and their 2-Pyrazoline Derivatives

2-Acetylbenzofuran on condensation with furan-2-carboxaldehyde and pyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde in methanolic KOH solution yielded the corresponding benzofuran chalcones. These two compounds and nine benzofuran chalcones were synthesized before, were further reacted with hydrazine hydrate in ethanol which led to the formation of 2-pyrazoline derivatives. All the synthesized compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, melting point determination, infrared spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Nine chalcone-type compounds and eleven 2-pyrazolines were evaluated for their biological activities against the six bacteria and the three yeast and it was seen that thirteen compounds showed activity. Four of them are chalcone-type compounds showed more or less activity

Studies on the Synthesis and Reactivity of Novel Benzofuran-2-yl-[3-Methyl-3-Phenylcyclobutyl] Methanones and their Antimicrobial Activity

Preparation in excellent yields of cyclobutyl benzofuran-2-yl- and naphthofuran- 2-yl-ketones, the corresponding ketoximes and thiosemicarbazones, ether derivatives of the ketoximes and thiazoles derived from the thiosemicarbazones are described. Two of the synthesized compounds have been tested against eight different microorganisms and found to be active against some of the species studied

Synthesis, Reactivity and Biological Activity of Novel Bisbenzofuran-2-yl-Methanone Derivatives

Preparation of bisbenzofuran-2-yl-methanone (1), the corresponding ketoxime 4, semicarbazone and thiosemicarbazone 3a and 3b, ether derivatives of the ketoximes 5a-j and the alcohol 2 are described. These substances have been prepared in excellent yields. All the synthesized compounds except 5i have been tested against five different microorganisms and some of them were found to be active against some of the species studied

Characterization of a newly synthesized fluorescent benzofuran derivative and usage as a selective fiber optic sensor for Fe(III)

In this work photoluminescent properties of Fe3+ selective organic fluoroionophore, benzofuran derivative bis(7-methoxybenzofuran-2-il)ketoxime (BFK) was investigated in different solvents (dichloromethane, tetrabydrofuran, toluene and ethanol) and in polymer matrices of polyvinylchloride (PVC) and ethyl cellulose (EC) by absorption and emission spectrometry. The photophysical constants such as quantum yield, Stock's shift and molar extinction coefficient of the BFK dye were declared. The immobilized dye was found to exhibit a selective response for Fe3+ in direction of decrease in fluorescence intensity

Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of some novel derivatives of benzofuran: part 1. Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of (benzofuran-2-yl)(3-phenyl-3-methylcyclobutyl) ketoxime derivatives

The reaction of salicylaldehyde with 1-phenyl-1-methyl-3-(2-chloro-1-oxoethyl) cyclobutane (1) and potassium carbonate was used to prepare (benzofuran-2-yl)(3-methyl-3-phenylcyclobutyl) methanone (2) for the starting reagent purposes. (benzofuran-2-yl)(3-phenyl-3methyl cyclobutyl) ketoxime (3) was synthesized from the reaction of the compound (2) with hidroxylamine. New derivatives of (benzofuran2-yl)(3-phenyl-3-methyl cyclobutyl) ketoxime (3) such as, O-glycidylketoxime (4) and O-phenylacylketoxime (5a-c) were obtained very high yields. Alkyl, allyl and aryl substituted N-oxime ethers (6a-e) were obtained from the reaction compound 3 and various halogen contained compounds. The syntheses of the compounds (7a-f) were carried out from the reaction of the compound (4) and different an-tines such as, isopropyl amine, natrium azide, morpholine and piperazine. All of the synthesized compounds were tested for antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538, Staphylococcus epidermidis ATCC 12228, Escherichia coli ATCC 8739, Klebsiella pneumoniae ATCC 4352, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 1539, Salmonella typhi, Shigella flexneri, Proteus mirabilis ATCC 14153 and Candida albicans ATCC 10231. Among the synthesized compounds (benzofuran-2-yl)(3-phenyl-3-methyl cyclobutyl)-O-[2-hydroxy-3-(Nmethylpiperazino)] propylketoxime (7d) was found the most active derivative against S. aureus ATCC 6538. The compounds 2,5b, 6b, 6c, 7b and 7f showed very strong and the same antimicrobial effect against C albicans ATCC 10231. Similarly (benzofuran-2-yl)(3-phenyl-3methylcyclobutyl)-O-benzylketoxime 6a showed good antimicrobial effect against C. albicans ATCC 10231. None of the other compounds exhibited activity against the other test microorganisms. (c) 2005 Elsevier SAS. All rights reserved
