Synthesis and Antimicrobial Studies of 4-[3-(3-Fluorophenyl)-4-formyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl]benzoic Acid and 4-[3-(4-Fluorophenyl)-4-formyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl]benzoic Acid as Potent Growth Inhibitors of Drug-Resistant Bacteria.


ABSTRACT: Microbial resistance to antibiotics is an urgent and worldwide concern. Several pyrazole-derived hydrazones were synthesized by using benign reaction conditions. Several of these molecules are potent growth inhibitors of drug-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus and Acinetobacter baumannii with minimum inhibitory concentration values as low as 0.39 ?g/mL. Furthermore, these molecules are nontoxic to human cells at high concentrations. Some of these molecules were tested for their ability to disrupt the bacterial membrane by using the SYTO-9/propidium iodide (BacLight) assay.
