A novel series of benzimidazole type of Fluconazole analogues were synthesized and characterized by (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, IR, MS and HRMS spectra. All the new compounds were screened for their antimicrobial activities in vitro by two-fold serial dilution technique. The bioactive evaluation showed that 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl benzimidazoles gave comparable or even stronger antibacterial and antifungal efficiency in comparison with reference drugs Chloromycin, Norfloxacin and Fluconazole. The combination of 2,4-difluorobenzyl benzimidazole derivative 5m and its hydrochloride 7 respectively with antibacterial Chloromycin, Norfloxacin or antifungal Fluconazole showed better antimicrobial efficiency with less dosage and broader antimicrobial spectrum than the separated use of them alone. Notably, these combined systems were more sensitive to Fluconazole-insensitive Aspergillus flavus and methicillin-resistant MRSA.

A series of novel unique structural organophosphorus aminopyrimidines were developed as potential DNA-targeting membrane active inhibitors through an efficient one-pot procedure from aldehydes, phosphonate and aminopyrimidine. The biological assay revealed that some of the prepared compounds displayed antibacterial activities. In particular, imidazole derivative exhibited more potent inhibitory activity against MRSA with an MIC value of 4 μg mL in comparison with the clinical drugs chloromycin and norfloxacin.

The binding behaviour between calf thymus DNA and synthesized benzothiazolyl triazolium derivatives as potent antimicrobial agents was explored by means of spectroscopic applications together with molecular docking study at the sub-domain IIA, binding site I of human serum albumin (HSA). Most of the synthesized derivatives presented significant antimicrobial inhibition when compared with the clinical Norfloxacin, Chloromycin, and Fluconazole. In particular, compound 5q presented efficient anti-Bacillus subtilis, anti-Escherichia coli, anti-Salmonella typhi, and anti-Psuedomonas aeruginosa activity with low MIC values of 2-8 μg/mL which were relatively superior to the reference drugs.

A series of novel benzimidazolyl tetrahydroprotoberberines were conveniently designed and efficiently synthesized from berberine via direct cyclization of tetrahydroprotoberberine aldehyde and o-phenylene diamines under metal-free aerobic oxidation. All the new compounds were characterized by IR, H NMR, C NMR and HRMS spectra. The antimicrobial evaluation revealed that the 5-fluorobenzimidazolyl derivative 5b was the most active antibacterial and antifungal molecule with broad spectrum in comparison to Berberine, Chloromycin, Norfloxacin and Fluconazole.

Aim: Due to bacterial drug resistance, a new series of quinazolinone azolyl ethanols were synthesized and evaluated.
Results: In vitro antibacterial assay showed that triazolyl ethanol quinazolinone 3a was the most active compound, especially against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) with minimal inhibitory concentration value of 8 µg/ml, which was superior to chloromycin and comparable to norfloxacin. Molecular docking study displayed that compound 3a could interact with MRSA DNA by the formation of hydrogen bonds.
