Antifungal activities of juglone and naphthazarine derivatives

  • Published : 2003.10.01

Abstract

Juglone and naphthazarine derivatives were newly systhesized for the evaluation of antifungal activities. These derivatives were prepared by methylation of juglone and 2, 3-dichloro-5, 8-dihydroxy-l, 4-naphthoquinone, and by regioselective nucleophilic subsitution with arylthiols. All compounds were tested in vitro for their growth inhibitory activities against pathogenic fungi by the standard method. The MIC values were determined by comparison to flucytosine as a standard agent. (omitted)
