Synthesis of two 2,3,4,5‐tetrahydrooxepin‐7‐ylamino)benzoate derivatives as antibacterial agents against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus

Abstract

Some protocols have been used to preparation of oxepine analogs using some substances which require special conditions such as higher‐temperatures or differences in the pH. The objective of this study was to synthesize two new oxepine‐derivatives from a Bicyclo[6.1.0]‐alkyne analog. Besides, the antibacterial effect against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus was determinate. The results showed that protocols used for synthesis of two oxepine analogs do not require special conditions to give a good yielding. Other data showed that oxepine analogs decreased the growth bacterial of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. In conclusion, in this investigation a facile method for the synthesis of two oxepine derivatives is reported; in addition, these compounds could be good candidates as antibacterial reagents.
