Synthesis and Antimicrobial Evaluation of Novel Carbazole Based β-diketones and its Pyrazole Derivatives

Novel 9-ethyl-9H-carbazole-3-carboxylic acid derivatives including ester, β-diketone and pyrazole were prepared and characterized by FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and mass spectroscopic techniques. All synthesized compounds evaluated for their in vitro antimicrobial activities against four bacteria (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas putide, Bacillus subtilis, and Streptococcus lactis) and three fungi (Aspergillus niger, Penicillium sp and Candida albicans). Among the compounds tested, 3a, 3b, 3c, 4a, 4b, 4c, 5a and 5b exhibited pronounced antibacterial activity as compared with standard drug ampicillin. Notably, carbazole based pyrazole derivatives 5a and 5b showed potent antifungal activity against C. albicans comparable to reference drug greseofulvin.

Synthesis and Evaluation of Novel 1, 5- Benzothiazepine Derivatives as Anti- Inflammatory Agents

ABSTRACT:Novel 1, 5-benzothiazepine derivatives were synthesized and characterized by spectral studies. The newly synthesized compounds (4a-g) were screened for in vivo anti-inflammatory activity at a dose of 10 mg/kg BW. Among those tested, compounds 4c, 4d and 4g exhibited significant anti-inflammatory activity in models of acute inflammation such as rat paw edema, while compounds 4c and 4g showed considerable activity compared with diclofenac as a standard drug
