Abstract

Schiff bases, a class of organic compounds, have garnered significant attention due to their diverse applications in various fields such as pharmaceuticals, materials science, and coordination chemistry. This study provides a comprehensive overview of the synthesis of Schiff bases amino pyridine derivatives and aromatic ketones along with their anti-microbial activity.

Method: The synthesis of Schiff bases primarily involves the condensation reaction between a primary amine and a carbonyl compound (ketone) along with glacial acetic acid. Various methods have been developed for the synthesis of Schiff bases. Classical methods typically involve refluxing the amine and carbonyl compound in a suitable solvent with or without a catalyst. In this research, nine new compounds of Schiff bases have been synthesized along with characterization and antibacterial and anti-fungal activities.

Result: It was discovered that all elemental analyses, IR, 1H NMR, and mass spectrometry values were significant. According to antimicrobial and antifungal screening results, compounds PS-1 and compound PS-9 were found to be more active against all tested strains, while Schiff bases demonstrate substantial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans. PS-1 compound was found to have most activity in anti-bacterial test while PS-9 was found to possess best anti-fungal activity.

Conclusion: The current study examines the pharmacological properties of pyridine derivatives. Pyridine derivative PS-1 was found to be most active antibacterial agent and PS-9 most active antifungal agent. The results of the study have important implications for future investigations into possible therapies for bacterial infections.
