Abstract:
AimTo study the synthesis and antibacterial activity of ciprofloxacin derivatives. MethodsCiprofloxacin derivatives were synthesized primarily from 2-methyl-5-nitroimidazol and ciprofloxacin through nucleophilic substitution. The antibacterial activity of the synthesized compounds were tested. ResultsNine new compounds were synthesized. The structure of the title compounds were confirmed by
1H NMR, MS and element analysis. ConclusionCompounds II, IV
C and IV
D showed appreciable antibacterial activity ,and were worth further studying.
