    Journal: J Enzyme Inhib Med Chem; 2013 Oct; 28(5):926-35. PubMed ID: 22803670.
    Abstract:
    The synthesis, in vitro antimicrobial activities of some novel hydroxy pyridines supported with various pharmacophores is described. Twenty-six out of the tested 58 compounds exhibited variable inhibitory effects on the growth of the tested Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria. The tested compounds revealed better activity against the Gram positive rather than the Gram negative strains. The synthesized hydroxypyridones have shown very significant inhibitory effect against Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis. Twelve compounds namely; 5d, 5f, 6a, 6b, 8b, 18b, 18c, 19c, 21d, 22b, 22d and 23d were able to produce appreciable growth inhibitory activity against Candida albicans when compared to Clotrimazole. Among these, 22d proved to be the most potent antifungal agent.
