摘要:AbstractA series of new 2-(substitutedphenoxy)-N-[(aryl)methylidene]acetohydrazide analogues (8a-n) were synthesized in search of potential therapeutics for leishmaniasis. All the compounds were characterized by infrared (IR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The compounds were further evaluated forin vitroantileishmanial activity against promastigotes ofLeishmania donovanias per the standard protocol reported elsewhere. 2-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxy)-N′-{[4-(morpholin-4-yl)phenyl]methylidene}acetohydrazide (8k) showed the most promising antileishmanial activity with IC50of 48.10 µM, free from cytotoxicity (>153.08 µM).
