Abstract
Abstract Five aminoalkyl 1H-benzo[de]isoquinoline-1,3(2H)-diones were synthesized and evaluated for antimicrobial activity. Microorganisms used in this study included aerobic and facultative anaerobic bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, and obligatory anaerobes Bacteroides fragilis, Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron and Propionibacterium acnes. Moreover, Candida albicans yeast was used. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was determined for the test compounds. Among the tested derivatives, two compounds 1 and 2 have shown the most potent antibacterial as well as antifungal activities.
