  • Title: Synthesis and antifungal activity of naphthalene-1,4-diones modified at positions 2, 3, and 5.
    Author: Ryu CK, Chae MJ.
    Journal: Arch Pharm Res; 2005 Jul; 28(7):750-5. PubMed ID: 16114486.
    Abstract:
    A series of 2-arylamino-5-hydroxy-naphthalene-1,4-diones, 3-arylamino-5-methoxy-naphthalene-1,4-diones, and 2-arylamino-3chloro-5-hydroxy-naphthalene-1,4-diones were synthesized and tested for in vitro antifungal activity against the species Candida and Aspergillus niger. Among those tested, 3-arylamino-5-methoxy-naphthalene-1,4-diones exhibited potent antifungal activity. In general, the 3-arylamino-5-methoxy-naphthalene-1,4-diones showed more potent antifungal activity than the 2-arylamino-5-hydroxy-naphthalene-1,4-diones and the 2-arylamino-3-chloro-5-hydroxy-naphthalene-1,4-diones.
