Nowadays, searching for novel antimicrobial agents is crucial due to the increasing number of resistant bacterial strains. Moreover, cancer therapy is a major challenge for modern medicine. Currently used cytostatics have a large number of side effects and insufficient therapeutic effects. Due to the above-mentioned facts, we undertook research to synthesize novel compounds from the acylhydrazone group aimed at obtaining potential antimicrobial and anticancer agents. As a starting material, we employed hydrazides of 2-, 3- or 4-iodobenzoic acid, which gave three series of acylhydrazones in the condensation reaction with various aldehydes. The chemical structure of all obtained compounds was confirmed by IR, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR. The structure of selected compounds was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Additionally, all samples were characterized using powder X-ray diffraction. The other issue in this research was to examine the possibility of the solvent-free synthesis of compounds using mechanochemical methods. The biological screening results revealed that some of the newly synthesized compounds indicated a beneficial antimicrobial effect even against MRSA—the methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 43300 strain. In many cases, the antibacterial activity of synthesized acylhydrazones was equal to or better than that of commercially available antibacterial agents that were used as reference substances in this research. Significantly, the tested compounds do not show toxicity to normal cell lines either. |
