[Substances with antibacterial and antifungal activity. VII. Synthesis and microbiologic activity of new derivatives of 1,5-diarylpyrrole].

The synthesis and antifungal activities of new 1,5-diarylpyrrole derivatives are reported. Antimicrobial data in comparison with pyrrolnitrin show that N-methylpiperazinylamides exhibit very poor activity against Candida albicans and Candida sp. while acid and ester derivatives are inactive. Vice-versa many acid or amide derivatives show interesting antibacterial activity. The results obtained are discussed on the basis of structure-activity relationships.
