Abstract

New series of 2-(aryl or alkyl)-N-phenylhydrazine-1-carboxamides 1a–j were synthesized through one-pot reactions of aldehyde or ketones, hydrazine hydrate, and phenylisocyanate in MeOH. The structure of products was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR), and 13C NMR spectra. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of antibacterial activity of 1a–j was screened against five bacterial strains. Compound 1f showed antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus.
