Synthesis, Characterization, Antimicrobial and Molecular Docking Study of Benzooxadiazole Derivatives
In this study, a series of new1,2,5-oxadiazole compounds derived from 4-chloro-7-nitro-benzo 1,2,5-oxadiazole was synthesized using different organic procedures. The resulting derivatives were chemically characterized and their structures were confirmed by FT-IR and NMR analysis. All the compounds were also evaluated for their antibacterial and antifungal activity against four types of pathogenic bacteria: S.aureus, S.epidermidis (as gram-negative bacteria), E.coli, Klebsiella spp. (as gram-positive bacteria) and the fungus Candida albicans using the agar well diffusion method.
