Summary

In this study, a number of novel dithiocarbamate derivatives were synthesized for the evaluation of their antimicrobial activities.
These compounds were originally prepared by the reaction of potassium salts of N,N-disubstituted dithiocarbamic acids with 3-(2-chloroethyl)-6-arylhexahydropyrimidine-2,4- diones. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by the spectral data (IR, 1H-NMR) and elemental analysis. The antimicrobial activities of all of the compounds were investigated by microdilution broth method using two Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212) and two Gram-negative (Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853) bacteria and three fungi (Candida albicans ATCC 90028, Candida krusei ATCC6258, Candida parapsilosis ATCC 22019). Among the compounds tested 2-[6-(3-chlorophenyl) hexahydropyrimidine-2,4-dione-3-yl]ethyl morpholine- 4-carbodithioate (compound 7c) showed the most favorable antibacterial activity (MIC: 16 µg/mL).
