One of the main challenges of medicinal chemistry is the search for new substances with antimicrobial potential that could be used in the fight against pathogenic microorganisms. Therefore, the antimicrobial activity of newly synthesized compounds is still being investigated. Carbazole-containing compounds appear to be promising antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral agents. The aim of this study was to examine the antimicrobial potential and toxicity of newly synthesized isomeric fluorinated 4-[4-(benzylamino)butoxy]-9-carbazole derivatives. Their antimicrobial activity against bacteria and fungi was tested according to CLSI guidelines. Similarly to previously studied carbazole-containing compounds, the tested derivatives showed the ability to effectively inhibit the growth of Gram-positive bacteria. The addition of carbazole derivatives , , and at the concentration of 16 µg/mL caused the inhibition of growth by over 60%. The MIC value of compounds - and - was 32 µg/mL for strains. Gram-negative strains of and were found to be more resistant to the tested carbazole derivatives. cells treated with compounds and at a concentration of 64 µg/mL resulted in a greater-than-40% reduction in bacterial growth. In the case of the strain, all compounds in the highest concentration that we tested limited growth by 35-42%. Moreover, an over-60% inhibition of fungal growth was observed in the cultures of and incubated with 64 µg/mL of compounds or and or , respectively. The hemolysis of red blood cells after their incubation with the tested carbazole derivatives was in the range of 2-13%. In the case of human fibroblast cells, the toxicity of the tested compounds was higher. Derivative , functionalized with fluorine in position 2 and its hydrobromide, was the least toxic. The obtained results indicated the antimicrobial potential of the tested 4-[4-(benzylamino)butoxy]-9-carbazole derivatives, especially against strains; therefore, it is worth further modifying these structures, in order to enhance their activity against pathogenic microorganisms.
