description

Abstract Molecular topology has been applied to find the new lead antimycotic compounds. Among the selected compounds stands out 3,3′-(4,4′ - Biphenylene)bis(2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium chloride), Benztropine mesylate and Dicyclopentamethylenethiuram disulphide, with minimum inhibitory concentrations between 1.6 and 2 μg / mL.
