Antimycotic imidazoles. 2. Synthesis and antifungal properties of esters of 1-[2-hydroxy(mercapto)-2-phenylethyl]-1H-imidazoles. 1978

K A Walker, and D R Hirschfeld, and M Marx

The synthesis of carboxylic and (thio)carbonate esters of 1-[2-hydroxy(mercapto)-2-phenylethyl]-1-H-imidazoles, some of which are formally related to miconazole and its analogues by replacement of an ether with an ester linkage, is described. In antifungal bioassays a number of compounds display in vitro and, in a few cases, in vivo activities comparable to that of miconazole. In this series lipophilicity within a relatively narrow range is shown to be a necessary, although not sufficient, criterion for in vitro and, in particular, in vivo antifungal activity.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries

D002177 Candidiasis Infection with a fungus of the genus CANDIDA. It is usually a superficial infection of the moist areas of the body and is generally caused by CANDIDA ALBICANS. (Dorland, 27th ed) Candida Infection,Moniliasis,Candida Infections,Candidiases,Infection, Candida,Moniliases
D004952 Esters Compounds derived from organic or inorganic acids in which at least one hydroxyl group is replaced by an –O-alkyl or another organic group. They can be represented by the structure formula RCOOR’ and are usually formed by the reaction between an acid and an alcohol with elimination of water. Ester
D005260 Female Females
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D000935 Antifungal Agents Substances that destroy fungi by suppressing their ability to grow or reproduce. They differ from FUNGICIDES, INDUSTRIAL because they defend against fungi present in human or animal tissues.

D012995 Solubility The ability of a substance to be dissolved, i.e. to form a solution with another substance. (From McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 6th ed) Solubilities
D013329 Structure-Activity Relationship The relationship between the chemical structure of a compound and its biological or pharmacological activity. Compounds are often classed together because they have structural characteristics in common including shape, size, stereochemical arrangement, and distribution of functional groups.
