Özet

Some new 2-(benzyl/p-chlorobenzyl)-5-[(substituted-thienyl/pheny/phenylthiomethyl/benzyl)carbonylamino]benzoxazole derivatives have been synthesized by reacting 5-amino-2-(benzyl/p-chlorobenzyl)benzoxazoles with appropriate carboxylic acid chlorides. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by IR, H-1 NMR and MASS spectral data. In vitro antimicrobial activities of the compounds were investigated using twofold serial dilution technique against different two Gram-positive, two Gram-negative bacteria and three Candida spp. in comparison with standard drugs. Microbiological results indicated that the newly synthesized 2-(benzyl/p-chlorobenzyl)-5[(substituted-thienyl/phenyl/phenylthiomethyl/benzyl)carbonyl amino] benzoxazole derivatives (3-12) possessed a broad spectrum of activity having MIC values of 6.25-100 mu g/ml against the tested microorganisms. Especially, with an MIC value of 6.25 mu g/ml, 2-(p-chlorophenyl)-5-[(2,5-dimethylphenyl)carbonylamino]benzoxazole 4 displayed the same activity against Candida albicans as the standard drug clotrimazole.
