Abstract:
A series of carboxamide derivatives of moxifloxacin has been synthesized. The synthesized derivatives has
been characterization by using spectroscopic techniques such as UV-Vis, IR, H1NMR and Mass spectra, which
suggested that incoming group has occupied azabicylo groups of selected moxifloxacin at 7th position. Antimicrobial screening has been systematically carried out against various gram-positive, Gram-negatives and fungi in comparison with parent drug. Enzymatic assay were also performed. The results obtained were statistically analyzed by one way ANOVA. The antimicrobial results reveals that the synthesized derivative of moxifloxacin possess good activities against B. subtilis, F. solani, T. rubrum and P. aeruginosa concluding that derivatives are more potent antimicrobial agents as compared to parent drug. While compound B1 solely possess mild enzymatic activity against urease whereas, no other compounds is active against both urease and carbonic anhydrase.
