In the present study, some novel ferrocene derivatives carrying urea, thiourea, and sulfonamide groups were synthesized, and all compounds were characterized by spectral and elemental analyses. These compounds were screened for their antibacterial activities and also their minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureusandBacillus subtilis) and Gram-negative bacteria (Klebsiella pneumoniaandEscherichia coli) and antifungal activities againstSaccharomyces cerevisiaeandCandida albicans. Amongst the tested compounds,4b,4c,5b, and6bdisplayed excellent antimicrobial activity.

In this work, six complexes (2–7) of Cr(III) and Co(II) transition metals with triazole ligands were synthesized and characterized. In addition, a new ligand, 3,5-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)toluene (1), was synthesized and full characterized. The complexes were obtained as air-stable solids and characterized by melting point, electrical conductivity, thermogravimetric analysis, and Raman, infrared and ultraviolet/visible spectroscopy. The analyses and spectral data showed that complexes 3–7 had 1:1 (M:L) stoichiometries and octahedral geometries, while 2 had a 1:2 (M:L) ratio, which was supported by DFT calculations. The complexes and their respective ligands were evaluated against bacterial and fungal strains with clinical relevance. All the complexes showed higher antibacterial and antifungal activities than the free ligands. The complexes were more active against fungi than against bacteria. The activities of the chromium complexes against Candida tropicalis are of great interest, as they showed minimum inhibitory concentration 50 (MIC50) values between 7.8 and 15.6 μg mL−1. Complexes 5 and 6 showed little effect on Vero cells, indicating that they are not cytotoxic. These results can provide an important platform for the design of new compounds with antibacterial and antifungal activities.

Some novelN2-(Aryl)-N4,N6-bis (6, 7-dichloro-1, 3-benzothiazol-2-yl)-1, 3, 5-triazine-2, 4, 6-triamines (4a-u) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, IR, NMR, and mass spectra. The products have been tested for their antibacterial activity against gram (+)ve and gram (-)ve bacteria and also on different strains of fungi. Introduction of –OH, -OCH3, -NO2, -Cl and –Br groups to the heterocyclic frame work enhanced antibacterial and antifungal activities.

The paper describes a convenient method for the preparation of 4-substituted phenyl-5-[1-(4-fluorophenyl)-1,3-dihydroisobenzofuran-5-yl]-2H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiones. The structures of the synthesized compounds are established by the results of LCMS, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and IR and elemental analyses. The mercaptotriazoles are indicated to be in thione form by 1H NMR spectra. All the synthesized compounds have been screened for antibacterial and antifungal activities. Compounds 12d and 12h exhibit encouraging results, while the remaining compounds show moderate activities. On the basis of spectral studies, formation of 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles from the isobenzofuran acyl thiosemicarbazides 11(a–h) is ruled out.

A novel series of pyrazolyl 1,3,4-thiadiazines 5a–c, 8a–c, 12, 15a–c, 17a–c, and 20 was prepared from the reaction of pyrazole-1-carbothiohydrazide 1a,b with 2-oxo-N′-arylpropanehydrazonoyl chloride, 2-chloro-2-(2-arylhydrazono)acetate, and 3-bromoacetylcoumarin. Moreover, the regioselective reaction of 5-pyrazolone-1-carbothiohydrazide 1a with 4-substituted diazonium salts and 4-(dimethylamino)benzaldehyde gave the corresponding hydrazones 21a–c and 22. The newly prepared compounds were characterized by spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Many new synthesized compounds showed considerable antimicrobial activity against tested microorganisms. Hydrazones 21a–c and 22 showed remarkable antibacterial and antifungal activities. 4-(2-(p-tolyl)hydrazineylidene)-pyrazole-1-carbothiohydrazide 21a displayed the highest antibacterial and antifungal activities with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values lower than standard drugs chloramphenicol and clotrimazole, in the range of 62.5–125 and 2.9–7.8 µg/mL, respectively.

Abstract: The leaves and roots of Rumex confertus Willd were tested in vitro for antibacterial and fungal activity in the fractions of gasoline, chloroform, ethyl acetate and butanol. As a result, it was found that the leaves of the Rumex confertus Willd plant, chloroform and ethyl acetate fractions of the root part have antibacterial activity against fungi and gram-positive bacteria.

This study investigates the bulb extracts of Crinum jagus for antimicrobial activities. The bulb samples were dried, ground and subjected to successive extraction using hexane, ethylacetate and methanol. The extracts were screened for activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhi, Klebisidlae pneumonae, Candida albicans, Aspergillus niger, Penicillium notatum and Rhizopus stolonifer at concentrations between 6.25 and 200 mg/ml. Antimicrobial assays werecarried out using agar diffusion method. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of the extracts was determined. The percentage yields obtained for the hexane, ethylacetate and methanol extracts of the bulbs are 0.28 %, 0.44% and 24.68 % respectively. Results showed that the methanolic extract had better antibacterial and antifungal activities than the other extracts. The methanol extract showed the highest antibacterial activity against S. aureus with a zone of inhibition of 28 mm at 200 mg/ml. Also, the methanol extract showed the highest antifungal activities against C. albicans, A. niger and P. notatum with a zone of inhibition of 20 mm at 200 mg/ml. The hexane and ethylacetate extracts had no activity against the microorganisms at 6.25 mg/ml.The methanol extract had the lowest Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of 2.50 mg/ml against S. aureus, E. coli, B. subtilis, P. aeruginosa and S. typhi. The methanol extract could be a source of potent antimicrobial compounds. Keywords: Antibacterial, Antifungal, Crinum jagus, Agar diffusion, MIC

AbstractThree new abietane-type diterpenoids, plectranthroyleanones A – C (1 – 3), together with five known compounds (4 – 8) were isolated from the methanol extract of the whole plant of Plectranthus africanus using column chromatography techniques. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated using a combination of 1D and 2D NMR and HRESIMS analyses. Compound 1 exhibited weak activities with minimal inhibitory concentration values of 75 µg/mL against gram-positive bacteria, Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus, and 150 µg/mL against two gram-negative bacteria, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella pneumoniae, respectively, while 2 and 3 had moderate antibacterial activity against K. pneumoniae with a minimal inhibitory concentration value of 37.5 µg/mL.
