Solvent-free microwave assisted synthesis of morpholine–piperidine–pyrrolidine annulated quinoline-naphthyl based chalcones and their antimicrobial activity

详细

A new series of 2-morpholine–piperidine–pyrrolidine substituted quinoline based chalcones have been synthesized by conventional and microwave irradiation methods. All synthesized compounds were characterised by IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR, mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis. The products were evaluated in vitro for antibacterial activity against two bacterial strains (Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli) and antifungal activity against two fungal strains (Aspergillus flavus, Candida metapsilosis). 2-Piperidine substituted quinoline chalcones demonstrated high antimicrobial activity.
