Abstract
The present study describes synthesis and antimicrobial evaluation of a series of novel 6-azauracil non-nucleosides. Reaction of silylated 6-azauracils with the appropriate chloroethers gave the corresponding non-nucleosides. 1-(Allyloxymethy)-6-azauracils and non-nucleosides bearing indanyl, cyclohexenyl, and cyclohexyl moieties were obtained via silylation of 6-azauracils followed by treatment with the appropriate acetals. Selected compounds were tested for their in vitro antimicrobial activity against a panel of standard strains of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and the yeast-like pathogenic fungus Candida albicans. Four compounds showed marked inhibitory activity particularly against the tested Gram-positive bacteria.
