    Abstract:
    A series of Schiff bases 3, 5, 7 and hydrazones 9 were achieved via reaction of 5-(morpholinosulfonyl)indol-2,3-dione (1) with appropriate amines and/or hydrazide derivatives. Representative compounds of the synthesized products were tested and evaluated as antimicrobial agents. According to MIC and MBC results from compounds 9a, 9c, 7a, 3b, 3c, and 5b were able to exhibit significant antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria together with moderate antifungal activities. Also, a multi-drug resistance study (MDRS) was carried out to evaluate the activity of most potent compounds, and these compounds showed considerable results compared with Norfloxacin and Tetracycline which observed no results against strains used in this study. The inhibitory activity of most potent compounds (3b, 3c, 5b, 7a, 9a, and 9c) against DNA gyrase isolated from S. aureus was examined. The results indicated that all of these derivatives inhibiting DNA gyrase and therefore lead to separate bacterial DNA and inhibit cell division. Compounds 3b, 9c showed to be very potent inhibitors towards S. aureus DNA gyrase with IC50 values (18.75 ± 1.2 and 19.32 ± 0.99 µM) respectively, compared with Ciprofloxacin (26.43 ± 0.64 µM). Molecular docking studies indicated that the synthesized compounds observed good binding with the enzyme and showed lower binding energy of the most promising compounds than a standard drug used, and enabled a better understanding of their structural features.
