Abstract
A series of new tetrazolo[1,5-a]quinoline-4-carbonitrile derivatives were synthesized for the first time via tetrazolo[1,5-a]quinoline derivatives. Elemental analysis, IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and mass spectral data were used to elucidate the structures of all newly synthesized compounds. In vitro antimicrobial activities of synthesized compounds were investigated against Gram-positive Bacillus subtilis, Gram-negative Escherichia coli, and two fungi, Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger, in comparison with standard drugs. Some of the tested compounds showed significant antimicrobial activity.
