ABSTRACT
A series of 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles having thioether as well as amide linkage were synthesized from aryl(prop-2-yn-1-yl)sulfanes and 2-azido-N-substituted acetamides through Cu(I) catalyzed click reaction. Structures of newly synthesized compounds (3a–3x) were confirmed by spectral techniques like FTIR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and HRMS. The synthesized triazoles were evaluated for in vitro antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, Candida albicans, and Aspergillus niger. Compounds 3m and 3q displayed appreciable broad spectrum antimicrobial activity against tested microbial strains. The nanoformulations of compounds 3m and 3q were also prepared and examined against one bacterial strain and one fungal strain.
