Synthesis, antifungal activity and structure-activity relationships of 2-(alkyl or aryl)-2-(alkyl or polyazol-1-ylmethyl)-4-(polyazol-1-ylmethyl)- 1,3-dioxolanes
A series of 2-(alkyl or aryl)-2-(alkyl or polyazol-1-ylmethyl)-4-(polyazol-1-ylmethyl)-1,3-dioxolanes Ia-u was synthesized and tested in vitro against pathogenic fungi in man, animals and plants: Candida albicans, Aspergillus flavus and Fusarium solani. Compounds Iq-t with two polyazol groups have an in vitro activity against these fungi with MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) value of 5 μg mL-1.
