Abstract
The work successfully synthesized twelve novel derivatives of 4-imidazolidinone bearing a sulfadiazine moiety using a one-pot reaction. This was done by condensation of sulfadiazine with twelve different aldehydes to afford the corresponding imines as intermediates, which were then followed by a cyclization reaction with glycine to furnish the desired products 1-12 in 56-85% yields. The structures of these products were identified by FT-IR and 1H NMR spectroscopy. In addition, a number of the produced compounds demonstrated diverse antibacterial and antioxidant activities. In terms of the antibacterial activity, the compounds 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, and 12 were tested. Compound 4 displayed the best inhibition against gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli), and compound 2 displayed the best inhibition against gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus). In terms of the antioxidant activity, a few of the prepared compounds (2, 3, 4, 5, 8, and 12) were evaluated. The best-tested compound was 2 when compared to ascorbic acid with an IC50 value of 70.84.
