ABSTRACT
In an effort to develop antimicrobial agents, a series of substituted (E)-1-(4-fluoro-3-methylphenyl)-3-phenylprop-2-en-1-one compounds were synthesized by crossed-aldol condensation reaction of 4-fluoro-3-methyl acetophenone with various substituted benzaldehydes in the presence of sodium hydroxide. The synthesized compounds were characterized by means of their UV, IR and NMR spectral data. The synthesized substituted (E)-1-(4-fluoro-3-methylphenyl)-3-phenylprop-2-en-1-one compounds were tested for their antibacterial and antifungal activities by the Bauer-Kirby disc diffusion method.
