A series of chalcones-bearing 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives was synthesized as novel bio-active antimicrobial agents against multidrug-resistant bacteria and fungi. The lead compounds (Z)-2-(5-(3-nitrophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylthio) -N-(4-(3-(aryl)acryloyl)phenyl)acetamides 5a-n were synthesized via acid-catalyzed aldol condensation (SOCl2) by reacting N-(4-acetylphenyl)-2-(5-(3-nitrophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylthio)acetamide (4) with differently substituted aldehydes. Compound (4) was obtained by reacting 5-(3-nitrophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiol (2) with N-(4-acetylphenyl)-2- chloroacetamide (3) in the presence of K2CO3. The intermediates (2) and (3) were synthesized simultaneously from 3-nitrobenzohydrazide (1) and 4-aminoacetophenone, respectively. The formation of intermediates and targeted compounds were confirmed for their structure by means of various spectral-analytical techniques like IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, elemental analysis, and mass spectra. Antimicrobial properties of all the synthesized compounds have been evaluated against broad panel of bacteria and fungi. Springer Science+Business Media 2013.
