Synthesis of new 1-alkyl-, 1-benzyl-, and 1-aryloxyethyl-substituted 4,5-dichloroimidazoles and their antimicrobial, protistocidal, and fungistatic properties

Аннотация

Previously unknown 1-alkyl-, 1-benzyl-, and 1-aryloxyethylderivatives of dichloroimidazoles and products of their structural transformation were synthesized from 4,5-dichloroimidazole or 2-methyl-4,5- dichloroimidazole using alkyl, benzyl or aryloxyethyl halides. These N-substituted compounds were shown to have a weak antibacterial activity against some pathogenic gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli). At the same time, some of the obtained compounds demonstrated a significant protistocidal activity against Colpoda steinii, which can exceed in strength the activity of clinically used veterinary drug Baycox. Moreover, these compounds showed a pronounced fungistatic effect.
