Abstract

New substituted aroylhydrazones (4a-f) were synthesized from the acid hydrazide (3) and the corresponding aldehyde or aldose. 5-Amino-4-cyano-1H-pyrazole derivatives (6a-f) were prepared by the reaction of the aroylhydrazones (4a-f) with malononitrile. The synthesized compounds were tested for antimicrobial activity against various bacteria and fungi and showed moderate to high inhibition activities. Compounds incorporating a sugar moiety as well as a pyrazolyl ring in their structure displayed the highest antimicrobial activity.
