Synthesis and Antibacterial Screening of Some 1-Aroyl-3-aryl Thiourea Derivatives

Abstract: A series of 1-aroyl-3-aryl thioureas derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for antibacterial activity. The results indicated that the compounds possessed higher activity against gram-negative bacteria than gram-positive bacteria. Amongst all these compounds, C18 (89.4%) exhibited the greatest antibacterial activity against gram-negative bacteria while C5 (85.6%) displayed maximum antibacterial activity against gram-positive bacteria. Preliminary study of the structure-activity relationship revealed that a… Show more

“…is phenomenon has led to the design of novel antimicrobial as well as antibiotic divergent from the current classes of compounds [2]. Specifically, the growth of the new classes of antibacterial agents and modification to the known drugs must be conducted in such a way that would induce them to preserve their physiological action, but a reduction in their resistance towards the agents [3].…”

“…Sterile filter paper disc impregnated with 10 L of the compound in DMSO was placed on the surface of agar plate using a sterile pair of forceps. The plates were then incubated at 37 ∘ C for 24 h. The zones of inhibition were measured in millimetre (mm) to estimate the potency of the test compounds [29].…”

“…All compounds experienced solubility limitation in the assays media which hindered the inhibition studies. Alternatively, disc diffusion method was performed on 1-12 [29]. Ampicillin (positive control) was used as standard drug, while dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was used as negative control with aspirin as a reference.…”

“…Functional moieties such as carbonyl, thiocarbonyl, and amines are building blocks of many drugs. These groups frequently perform a structural role, linking other functionalities and aiding in the optimal orientation for interaction with the drug’s target [ 18 , 19 ]. The chemical reactivity of carbonyl functional groups can also allow these groups to come into close contact with the target, generating hydrogen bonds and other intermolecular interactions.…”
