RESUMO
For this work, two series of new piperazine derivatives (3a-o) and triazolo-pyrazine derivatives (3p-t) were synthesized in a single-step reaction. All twenty adducts were obtained in good to high yields and fully characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, IR, and mass spectrometry techniques. To further confirm the chemical identity of the adducts, a crystal of N-{[(4-chlorophenyl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)]-5,6-dihydro-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]}pyrazine-7(8H)-carboxamide (3t) was prepared and analyzed using X-ray crystallography. In vitro screening of the antimicrobial activity of all compounds (3a-t) was evaluated against five bacterial and two fungal strains. This study disclosed that N-{[(3-chlorophenyl)]-4-(dibenzo[b,f][1,4]thiazepin-11-yl)}piperazine-1-carboxamide (3o) was the superior antimicrobial with good growth inhibition against A. baumannii. Furthermore, the results from the performed molecular docking studies were promising, since the observed data could be used to develop more potent antimicrobials.
