Abstract
The research work presented in this article describes a synthesis of chiral amides. Chiral benzyl ethers of N-Boc protected aminols reacted with succinic acid using 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine (TCT) as a coupling agent producing chiral amides in high yields. The synthetic amides were investigated for their antifungal and antibacterial activities against different bacterial and fungal strains. All the compounds showed excellent zone of inhibition against the three tested bacterial strains and good to moderate activity against one fungal strain.
