Abstract

Several new synthesized 4-cinnamamido- and 2-phenoxyacedamido-(1H-pyrazol-5-yl)benzamides were obtained by two multi step different synthetic routes in order to maximize their yield. The new derivatives were screened to determine the antiproliferative, antimicrobial and antibiofilm activity. The biological results showed how, respect to the antiproliferative and antimicrobial activities, the compounds have a low to missing activity. Different are the results obtained concerning the antibiofilm activity, especially towards Candida albicans. Most of the synthesized compounds showed a good percentage inhibition of biofilm formation ranging from 60 to 73% with a Biofilm Inhibition Concentration 50% (BIC50) from 0.13 to 0.01 µM. Among the synthesized compounds the ethyl 5-(4-(2-(4-chlorophenoxy)acetamido)benzamido)-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylate (27c) resulted the most active molecule with a BIC50 of 0.01 µM. According to the results obtained, such compound could be considered a lead subject of further studies to obtain novel and more effective antibiofilm agents against C. albicans.
