    Abstract:
    A series of arylidene-2-(4-(4-methoxy/bromophenyl) thiazol-2-yl) hydrazines (4a-z) and 1-(4-(4-methoxy/bromophenyl) thiazol-2-yl)-2-cyclohexylidene/cyclopentylidene hydrazines (5a-b/6a-b) were synthesized, characterized and screened for their antimicrobial activities. The structures of synthesized compounds were established by spectroscopic (FT-IR, (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, Mass) and elemental analyses. Both the anti-bacterial and anti-fungal activities with MIC values of compounds were evaluated. The results of anti-bacterial screening reveal that among all the compounds screened eight compounds showed moderate to good anti-bacterial activity while ten of the newly synthesized compounds displayed good to excellent anti-fungal activity. Among the tested compounds, the most effective compounds with MIC value in the range of 6.25-25 microg/ml are 4a, 4n, 4z, 5a, 5b, 6a and 6b against three fungal strains viz. Candida albicans, Cryptococcus neoformans and Aspergillus flavus.
