The results of the antimicrobial study revealed that compounds 5b, 5c, Sj and 5k exhibited substantial antibacterial activity while compound 5d emerged as amore potent antifungal agent compared to the standard drugs chloramphenicol and ketoconazole, respectively. It was observed that the presence of inductively electron withdrawing groups remarkably enhance the antibacterial activity of the newly synthesized compounds. Cytotoxicity studies suggested that none of the tested compounds exhibited any significant cytotoxic effects.展开更多
