RESUMO
A series of thirteen new thiadiazole compounds were synthesized and evaluated for in vitro antifungal and antibacterial activity. All compound tested showed significant antifungal activity against all the micromycetes, compared to the commercial fungicide bifonazole. Differences in their activity depend on the substitution of different reactive groups. More specifically, best antifungal activity was shown for the synthetic analogue with methylpiperazine reactive group. Furthermore, it is apparent that different compounds reacted on different ways against bacteria. An effort was made to correlate the above mentioned differences in activity with lipophilicity studies. Furthermore, NMR and molecular modelling were used to obtain the main conformational features of a potent analogue, for future in silico studies.

As part of ongoing studies in developing new antimicrobials, a class of structurally novel 4-thiazolidinone derivatives incorporating three known bioactive nuclei such as thiazole, thiazolidinone and adamantane was synthesized by the multi-step reaction protocol, already reported in the literature. NMR and Molecular Modeling techniques were employed for structure elucidation and Z/E potential isomerism configuration of the analogues. Evaluation of antibacterial and antifungal activity showed that almost all compounds exhibited better results than reference drugs thus they could be promising candidates for novel drugs.

A series of 10 new 5-[2-(substituted sulfamoyl)-4,5-dimethoxy-benzyl]-4aryl-s-triazole-3-thiones were synthesized and evaluated for in vitro antifungal and antibacterial activity. All compounds tested showed significant antifungal activity against all the micromycetes, compared to the commercial fungicide bifonazole. Differences in their activity depend on the substitution of different reactive groups. More specifically, best antifungal activity among synthetic analogues was shown with N-dimethylsulfamoyl group. All the compounds tested against bacteria showed the same activity as the commercial agent streptomycin, except for Enterobacter cloacce and Salmonella species. Chloramphenicol showed lower bactericidal effect than the synthetic compounds. Furthermore, it is apparent that different compounds reacted in different ways against bacteria. Gram (-) bacteria seem to be more sensitive to these compounds than Gram (+) species. An effort was made to correlate the above-mentioned differences in activity with lipophilicity studies. Furthermore, molecular modeling was used to obtain the main conformational features of this class of molecules for future structure-activity relationship studies.

The esters of Hecogenin and aza-homo-Hecogenin with N,N-bis(2-chloroethyl)aminocinnamic acid isomers have been prepared and their cytogenetic studies of structure-biological activity relationship were evaluated. The cytogenetic effects (sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) induction and proliferation rate indices (PRIs) depression) by o-, m- and p-[N,N-bis(2-chloroethyl)amino] cinnamic acid were also investigated. Among the above compounds tested, those of the m-[N,N-bis(2-chloroethyl)amino] cinnamic acid and of the o-[N,N-bis(2-chloroethyl)amino] cinnamic acid ester of aza-homo-Hecogenin were more active in comparison to the others.
