© 2016 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.The purpose of the present study was to investigate the antibacterial activity of novel alkyl esters of carboxylate phosphabetaine: β-(carboxyalkyl)ethyltributylphosphonium bromides 4–8. The in vitro microbiological activity of the synthesized phosphonium bromides against gram-positive, gram-negative bacteria and the yeast Candida albicans was determined in comparison to standard agents. Microbiological results indicate the synthesized phosphonium salts possess a broad spectrum of activity against the testedmicroorganisms. Every newly synthesized compound was characterized by elemental analyses, IR, 1H NMR, 31P NMR spectral studies.

© 2016 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.The condensation of do-, hexa-, octadecan-1-amines with bromo- and nitrobenzaldehydes yielded a series of Schiff bases in good yields. Subsequent reaction of these compounds with dioctylphosphine oxide yielded phosphorylated azomethines and some were characterized using X-ray crystallography. The structure of the isolated compounds was determined by IR and NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and their thermal stability was studied by simultaneous thermogravimetry and differential scanning calorimetry. All of the synthesized compounds were tested for their antibacterial and anti-Candida activity. A number of the compounds exhibited antimicrobial activity comparable to that of the commercially available drugs, ciprofloxacin and clotrimazole.

Reactions of 4-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)phenol and 4-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenol with 2,4-diaryl-1,3,2λ5,4λ5- dithiadiphosphetane 2,4-disulfides gave the corresponding O-4-hetarylphenyl hydrogen arylphosphonodithioates which were converted into ammonium salts. The latter showed antimicrobial activity against Grampositive bacteria and antifungal activity against fungi of the genus Candida.

A new series of bis-4,6-sulfonamidated 5,7-dinitrbenzofuroxans 7-11 had been synthesized and tested for antimicrobial activity. The structures of new sulfanilamide derivatives were characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry (MALDITOF). The synthesized compounds were tested for their in vitro antimicrobial activity using the disk diffusion method against Gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus; the Gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Proteus mirabilis; the fungal strain Aspergillus niger; and the yeast-like pathogenic fungus Candida albicans. Our results indicate that the compounds 7-11 exhibit potent antimicrobial activity. The stability of the compounds was evaluated by TG and DSC methods. © 2014 Irina V. Galkina et al.

The amination of 4,6-dichloro-5,7-dinitrobenzofuroxan and 4,6-dichloro-5,7-dinitrobenzofurazan with dibenzylamine followed the aromatic nucleophilic substitution pattern (SNAr) and gave products of replacement of both chlorine atoms in the six-membered ring with elimination of hydrogen chloride. Regardless of the reactant ratio, 4,6-dichloro-5,7- dinitrobenzofuroxan was converted into 4,6-bis(dibenzylamino)-5,7- dinitrobenzofuroxan, whereas 4,6-dichloro-5,7-dinitrobenzofurazan under analogous conditions gave rise to unusual bisammonium derivative which lost proton from the amino group on C4 and benzyl group from the amino group on C6; as a result, the corresponding diamine with secondary and tertiary nitrogen atoms was obtained. The structure of the isolated compounds was determined by IR and NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and X-ray analysis; their thermal stability was studied by simultaneous thermogravimetry and differential scanning calorimetry. © 2013 Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the antibacterial activity of fifteen novel nanosized alkyl esters of carboxylate phosphabetaine: β-(carboxyalkyl)ethyltriphenylphosphonium bromides 4-8, β-(carboxyalkyl)-β-methylethyltriphenylphosphonium bromides 9-13, and β-(carboxyalkyl)-α-methylethyltriphenylphosphonium bromides 14-18. The in vitro microbiological activity of the synthesized phosphonium bromides against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria and the yeast Candida albicans was determined in comparison to standard agents. Microbiological results indicate that the synthesized phosphonium salts 4-18 possess a broad spectrum of activity against the tested microorganisms. Every newly synthesized compound was characterized by elemental analyses, IR, 1H NMR, and 31P NMR spectral studies. © 2013 Irina V. Galkina et al.
