A variety of 3,4-disubstituted pyrroles and pyrazoles were synthesized by the treatment of 1,3-dipolar reagents viz., tosylmethyl isocyanide, and diazomethane to heteroaryl chalcones and evaluated for their antimicrobial activity. Among all the tested compounds, 14b and 15b displayed promising antimicrobial activity when compared with the standards particularly against Bacillus subtilis and Aspergillus niger.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
