Hybrid Compounds Containing Carvacrol Scaffold: Antibacterial and Cytotoxicity Evaluation.

Background: The design of hybrid compounds is a distinct approach for developing potent bioactive agents. Carvacrol, an essential oil, exhibits antimicrobial, antifungal, antioxidant, and anticancer activity, making it a good precursor for the development of compounds with potent biological activities. Some patents have reported carvacrol derivatives with promising biological activities.
