Popis: | New 1-[(3-aryloxy-3-aryl)propyl]-1 H-imidazoles were synthesized and evaluated against Candida albicans and dermatophytes in order to develop structure-activity relationships (SARs). Against C. albicans the new imidazoles showed minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) comparable to those of ketoconazole, miconazole, and econazole, and were more potent than fluconazole. Several derivatives ( 10, 12, 14, 18- 20, 24, 28, 29, 30, and 34) turned out to be potent inhibitors of C. albicans strains resistant to fluconazole, with MIC values less than 10 microg/mL. Against dermatophytes strains, compounds 20, 25, and 33 (MICor= 5 microg/mL) were equipotent to ketoconazole, econazole, and miconazole. SARs of imidazoles 10- 44 were rationalized with reasonable accuracy by a previously developed quantitative pharmacophore for antifungal agents. |
