Seven new 2,3-dimethoxy-3-hydroxy-2-(1-phenyl-3-aryl-4-pyrazolyl)chromanones (5) have been synthesized by the oxidation of 3-hydroxy-2-(1-phenyl-3-aryl-4-pyrazolyl)chromones (4) with iodobenzene diacetate in methanol. The structures of compounds 5 were established by the combined use of (1)H NMR, IR and mass spectra. All the seven compounds (5) were tested in vitro for their antibacterial activity against gram-positive bacteria namely, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Bacillus pumilus and two gram-negative bacteria namely, Salmonella typhi and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Three compounds, 5d, 5f and 5g, have displayed antibacterial activity comparable to the commercial antibiotics, Linezolid, Cefaclor and Cefuroxime axetial.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007462	Iodobenzenes	Any derivative of BENZENE that contains IODINE.
D010084	Oxidation-Reduction	A chemical reaction in which an electron is transferred from one molecule to another. The electron-donating molecule is the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant. Reducing and oxidizing agents function as conjugate reductant-oxidant pairs or redox pairs (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p471).	Redox,Oxidation Reduction

D000432	Methanol	A colorless, flammable liquid used in the manufacture of FORMALDEHYDE and ACETIC ACID, in chemical synthesis, antifreeze, and as a solvent. Ingestion of methanol is toxic and may cause blindness.	Alcohol, Methyl,Carbinol,Sodium Methoxide,Wood Alcohol,Alcohol, Wood,Methoxide, Sodium,Methyl Alcohol

D001419	Bacteria	One of the three domains of life (the others being Eukarya and ARCHAEA), also called Eubacteria. They are unicellular prokaryotic microorganisms which generally possess rigid cell walls, multiply by cell division, and exhibit three principal forms: round or coccal, rodlike or bacillary, and spiral or spirochetal. Bacteria can be classified by their response to OXYGEN: aerobic, anaerobic, or facultatively anaerobic; by the mode by which they obtain their energy: chemotrophy (via chemical reaction) or PHOTOTROPHY (via light reaction); for chemotrophs by their source of chemical energy: CHEMOLITHOTROPHY (from inorganic compounds) or chemoorganotrophy (from organic compounds); and by their source for CARBON; NITROGEN; etc.; HETEROTROPHY (from organic sources) or AUTOTROPHY (from CARBON DIOXIDE). They can also be classified by whether or not they stain (based on the structure of their CELL WALLS) with CRYSTAL VIOLET dye: gram-negative or gram-positive.	Eubacteria
D015195	Drug Design	The molecular designing of drugs for specific purposes (such as DNA-binding, enzyme inhibition, anti-cancer efficacy, etc.) based on knowledge of molecular properties such as activity of functional groups, molecular geometry, and electronic structure, and also on information cataloged on analogous molecules. Drug design is generally computer-assisted molecular modeling and does not include PHARMACOKINETICS, dosage analysis, or drug administration analysis.
