INTRODUCTION: It is well known that the grafted multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) have antibacterial activity and lower cytotoxicity. Moreover, pyrazole derivatives have a broad spectrum of biological activity due to their fertile template for many medicinal drugs. On view of these findings we report herein the hybridization between MWCNTs and some pyrazole derivatives as antibacterial agents.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Pyrazole and pyrazolone derivatives were grafted onto the surface of carboxylated MWCNTs via the reaction of carboxylated MWCNTs and the diazonium salts of pyrazoles and pyrazolones using mixed acid treatment. The insertion of the pyrazole and pyrazolone moieties was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, energy dispersion spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric (TGA).
RESULTS: The results indicate that pyrazole and pyrazolone moieties successfully attached on carboxylated MWCNTs surface. The neat pyrazole and pyrazolone derivatives and their corresponding carbon nanotubes were tested against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilus, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans bacteria, and Aspergillusniger fungi. The results showed that the grafted carbon nanotubes of pyrazole and pyrazolone derivatives have better antimicrobial activity than the neat pyrazole and pyrazolone derivatives. The molecular docking studies were performed on the most potent antimicrobial compounds to investigate the existence of the interactions between the most active inhibitors and Farnesyl pyrophosphate synthase (FPPS).
CONCLUSION: The surface of the carboxylated MWCNTs was successfully grafted with some pyrazole derivatives. The antibacterial activity was investigated for the newly synthesized compounds and indicated that the grafted MWCNTs have good antibacterial activity toward some pathogenic types of bacteria.
