Synthesis, Characterization and Antimicrobial Activities of Some Novel Derivatives of Phenol

Abstract

Phenolic compounds and benzaldehyde have undergone condensation with compounds containing active hydrogen atom like urea, thiourea, semicarbazide and thiosemicarbazide. The compounds thus synthesized (I-XII) were characterized by elemental analysis, molecular weight determination by Rast micro method, TLC and melting point and spectral methods such as IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR and mass. The antimicrobial activities of synthesized compounds were also studied.
