Synthesis and biological activity of a series of highly functionalized phenylamdes
Abstract
This report deals with the synthesis, characterization, and biological activity of a series of phenylamides possessing alkyl chains of varying length as well as additional alkyl amide moieties at the chain terminus. These compounds were targeted because of their expected activity against a specific fungus. The characterization and biological activity of many of the key intermediates are also reported. The biological activity of both the target compounds and the intermediates was determined by antibacterial and antifungal assays employing standard microbiological methodology. A total of thirty-two compounds were prepared and characterized; twenty-six of these were assayed. Several compounds displayed interesting activity in these screens.
