Abstract
A novel series of pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives (2a-j), incorporating a biologically active hydrazone moiety, was synthesized and subjected to antibacterial evaluation. Structural elucidation of the synthesized compounds was achieved using various spectroscopic methods, including IR, 1H and 13C NMR and mass spectrometry. The compounds demonstrated antibacterial and antifungal activities, with MIC values ranging between 50 and 250 µg/mL. The most resistant strains tested were Escherichia coli (MCC 2412), Staphylococcus aureus (MCC 2408), Bacillus subtilis (MCC 2010), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MCC 2080), Saccharomyces cerevisiae (MCC 1033) and Candida albicans (MCC 1439). All of the compounds showed significant efficacy, according to the antimicrobial screening, with several of them surpassing the common drugs fluconazole and ciprofloxacin.
