In Vitro Antifungal Activity of New and Known Geranylated Phenols against Rands.

A series of new and known geranylated phenol/methoxyphenol derivatives has been tested in vitro as inhibitor agents of mycelial growth of . The activity of tested compounds is correlated with the nature, number, and position of the substituent group on the aromatic ring. Results indicate that the most active geranylated derivatives are those having two hydroxyl groups (or one ⁻OH and one ⁻OCH₃) attached to the aromatic ring.
