Abstract

Abstract: Para Chloro Meta Xylenol (PCMX) is an exceptionally broad spectrum bactericide and preservative with a long established and proven use in controlling bacteria, mildew and fungal growth in a wide range of applications (medical, domestic and industrial). Chloroxylenol, also known as para chloro meta xylenol, is an antiseptic and disinfectant which is used for skin disinfection and cleaning surgical instruments. It is also used within a number of household disinfectants and wound cleaners. Their analogues viz. hybrid / ester molecules also possess various biological activities which prompted us to synthesize a novel analogue for their future application as bioactive molecule. The synthesized compound was characterized by IR, 1HNMR, mass spectral data, elemental analysis and screened for its potential antibacterial activity against Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria. It shows a promising antibacterial activity.
