Abstract

New derivatives of glycyrrhetic acid with hydrazide pharmacophore groups were synthesized and their antimicrobial activity was evaluated. Hydrazide of 3-O-acetyl-N'-(4-hydroxybenzylidene) glycyrrhetic acid exhibited the highest antimicrobial activity. This compound had both an antibacterial effect against Escherichia coli, Proteus vulgaris, Klebsiella pneumonia, Staphylococcus aureus, Citrobacter diversus, Enterobacter aerogenes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Enterobacter cloacae and antifungal activity against the Candida albicans fungus. The minimum inhibitory concentrations of this compound and pimafucin were similar for Candida albicans.
