The prepared compounds have been tested as potential antifungal and anti-bacterial (Grampositive and Gram-negative) agents. The antifungal and antibacterial results indicated that carboxylic acid compounds exhibited a weak bioactivity; even with replacement of carboxylic acid group with ester, no significant difference in activities was observed relative to standard commercial drugs. |
