Thiophene belongs to a class of heterocyclic
compounds. In this study, three new dimethyl-5-hydroxy isophtalate derived thiophene esters were
successfully synthesized and characterized by FT-IR, elemental analysis, 1H-NMR,
13C-NMR and HR-Mass techniques. Synthesized compounds antimicrobial
effects were tested on Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC
25923); Enterococcus faecalis (ATCC 29212); Enterococcus faecalis (ATCC
51922); Klebsiella pneumoniae (ATCC 700603); Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC
27853); Escherichia coli (ATCC 35218); Escherichia coli (ATCC
25922) and Candida albicans (ATCC
90028); Candida glabrata (ATCC 90030); Candida krusei (ATCC
6258); Candida parapsilosis (ATCC 22019). Compound C1 showed
the highest antimicrobial activity, possessing the same potential as
chloramphenicol against, P. aeruginosa ATCC 27853. According to MTT assays, this compound was identified as non-toxic.
