Antifungal Activity of Synthesized Benzothiazole Derivatives using Structure Activity Relationship

Abstract

In the field of drug discovery the benzothiazole is found to be a magical compound. Computational tools were used to predict their molecular property, drug likeness, overall drug score and toxicity risks which are essential parameter for a chemical to be qualified as a drug. As good results were observed by computational tools then novel series of 2-amino-6-substituted benzothiazoles with halo ketone have been synthesized by conventional method. All the synthesized compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis and IR, 1H NMR data in full accordance with their expected (depicted) structures. The synthesized compounds were screened for their antifungal activity using standard drug ampicillin.
