NEW 4-DIAZOPYRAZOLE DERIVATIVES AS POTENTIAL ANTIBIOFILM AGENTS
2010
Many infections such as otitis media, sinusitis, cholesteatoma, tonsillitis and adenoiditis are caused by biofilm forming mucosal pathogens (P. aeruginosa, S. aureus, S. peneomoniae, H. influenzae and M. catarrhalis). Moreover, the role of biofilms in the chronic otolaryngologic infections has been recognized for otitis media, tonsillitis and rhinosinusitis. Finally, bacterial biofilms of S. aureus, S. epidermis and E. faecalis are the leading cause of medical device-related infections. Pathogens growing as biofilms are intrinsically resistant to conventional antibiotics and therefore the discovery of new compounds able to act against biofilm aggregated micro organisms is an urgent task.

Synthesis and anti-staphylococcal activity of new 4-diazopyrazole derivatives.
2012
Abstract Several new 4-diazopyrazole derivatives 6a – g and 9a – c were obtained by the reaction of 1-(R-substituted-phenyl)-3-(1,3-dimethyl-1 H -pyrazol-5-yl)ureas 5a – g and N -(1,3-dimethyl-1 H -pyrazol-5-yl)-2-(R-substituted-phenyl)acetamides 8a – c respectively with a sevenfold excess of nitrous acid in acetic acid solution. The compounds were assayed for their activity against the Staphylococcus aureus reference strains ATCC 25923, ATCC 29213 and ATCC 6538, as well as six veterinary strains. The best anti-staphylococcal profile was showed by [(R-substituted-phenyl)acetyl](4-diazonio-1,3-dimethyl-1 H -pyrazol-5-yl)azanides 9a , c . Compound 9c was also able at 3.1 μg mL −1 to inhibit o…
