Abstract

A series of N, N'-Bis (2-hydroxylbenzyl)-1, 2-ethanediamine derivatives and its schiff bases were synthesized, characterized and screened for in vitro antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Salmonella enterica. Result indicated that the ethylenediamine derivatives, N, N'-Bis (2-hydroxy-5-bromobenzyl)-1, 2- ethanediamine (21), and N, N'-Bis (2-hydroxy-5-chlorobenzyl)-1, 2-ethanediamine (22) ...
