Abstract: A series of novel N-4-piperazinylciprofloxacin-ester hybrids has been synthesized and the structures confirmed by1H and 13C NMR, FT-IRspectral data, and elemental analysis. The products have been tested in vitro for their antibacterial activity againstsix bacterial strains (MRSA, Staphylococcusepidermidis, Bacillussubtilis, Escherichia coli,Salmonella enterica, and Klebsiella pneumoniae) and have demonstrated goodantibacterial activity with MIC values range 6.25–200 μg/mL. Antifungal andcytotoxic activities of the products have been tested against Candida kefyr and human leukemia K562 cell line,respectively. All compounds inhibit growth of K562 cells more efficiently thanthe parent ciprofoxacin in a dose- and duration-dependent way. Molecular dockingstudies performed for the compound 3i indicatesthat similarly to ciprofloxacin it can act as an inhibitor of S. aureus DNA gyrase.
