Synthesis and antimicrobial activities of some new pyrrolylthieno[2,3-b]-quinoline derivatives.

2-Acetyl-4-(p-chlorophenyl)-3-(1-pyrrolyl)-5,6,7,8- tetrahydrothieno[2,3-b]quinoline (4a) and its corresponding 2-carbohydrazide derivative 5 were prepared and used as key intermediates in the synthesis of the title compounds. Some of the synthesized compounds were screened for their antibacterial and antifungal activities.
