Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of N, N-dialkyl-2-substituted-5-diazo-imidazole-4-carboxamides.

ABSTRACT

A series of 2-substituted-5-diazoimidazole-4-carboxamides has been synthesized, and their antimicrobial activity has been tested in vitro. Some of the compounds show antifungal activity related to the presence of small groups on the 4-carbox-amido moiety, while the presence of substituents in position 2 was detrimental.
