Abstract
- • A simple method for the direct access to piperazines is documented. • Good functional group tolerance, including fluorinated compounds. • Excellent docking scores were observed. • Extensive biological screening for both bacteria and fungi are reported. • Comprehensive adducts′ characterization was performed. Herein, we describe the successful design and synthesis of seventeen new 1,4-diazinanes, compounds commonly known as piperazines. This group of piperazine derivatives (3a-q) were fully characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FT-IR, and LCMS spectral techniques. The molecular structure of piperazine derivative (3h) was further established by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. All reported compounds were evaluated for their antibacterial and antifungal potential against five bacterial (Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) and two fungal strains (Candida albicans and Cryptococcus neoformans). The complete bacterial screening results are provided. As documented, piperazine derivative 3e performed the best against these bacteria. Additionally, data obtained during molecular docking studies are very encouraging with respect to potential utilization of these compounds to help overcome microbe resistance to pharmaceutical drugs, as explicitly noted in this manuscript.
