Synthesis and evaluation of 1-(1 H-indol-3-yl)ethanamine derivatives as new antibacterial agents

A collection of 3-substituted indole derivatives was prepared using nucleophilic addition of indoles to nitrones. The compounds were then tested for their antibacterial activity against almost thirty bacterial strains representative of common human pathogens. Two types of indolic molecules inhibit t...

Description
Summary:A collection of 3-substituted indole derivatives was prepared using nucleophilic addition of indoles to nitrones. The compounds were then tested for their antibacterial activity against almost thirty bacterial strains representative of common human pathogens. Two types of indolic molecules inhibit the growth of Staphylococcus aureus, including MRSA and VISA strains, with MIC values ranging from 8 to 16 mg/L.
