ABSTRACT
A novel series of organic tellurium compounds based on pyrazole derivatives with a general formula of ArTeBr3 and Ar2TeBr2 [Ar = 2-(3-(4-substituted phenyl)-5-(2-chlorophenyl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-3,5-dinitrophenyl] were obtained by the refluxing of corresponding aryl mercuric chlorides with TeBr4 in two different mole ratio of 11 and 21, respectively, in free-moisture dioxane solvent under an argon atmosphere. Compounds of ArTeBr3 and Ar2TeBr2 were reduced by the action of ethanolic solution of hydrazine hydrate obtained Ar2Te2 and Ar2Te, respectively. Reaction of Ar2Te2 with excess thionyl chloride or iodine gave the corresponding trihalides ArTeCl3 and ArTeI3, respectively while the reaction of Ar2Te with thionyl chloride or iodine gave the corresponding Ar2TeCl3 and Ar2TeI3, respectively. The structures were elucidated according to their elemental analysis of carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen (CHN) and some of the spectroscopic techniques such as infrared IR and nuclear magnetic resonance for 1H and 13C. The antimicrobial activity for all the synthetic compounds were assayed against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria by using the agar diffusion method. The tellurated pyrazole derivatives showed a good degree against bacteria growth. In some cases, the antimicrobial activities of the synthetic compounds were better than amoxicillin.
