摘要

Novel bisstyryl derivatives of bakuchiol using Heck coupling reaction as the key step were synthesized and screened against a panel of six oral cavity pathogens for their antimicrobial activity. Four compounds ( 9– 12) showed two to fourfold and four to eightfold better activity (MIC 0.25–16 μg/ml) than bakuchiol and triclosan respectively. These compounds effectively inhibit the biofilm formation of single and multiple species at 2 – 8 × MICs. 4- and 4′-Hydroxy/methoxy styryl moieties of the bakuchiol derivatives play a pivotal role towards the activity as established in the SAR studies. Mechanism of action studies revealed microbial membrane structure disruption as the probable mode of action of these compounds.
