Synthesis of New p-Alkylaminophenol Compounds and Investigation of Their Antimicrobial and Antioxidant Activity

Alkylaminophenols are synthetic derivatives well known for their anticancer activity. In this work, we report the antimicrobial and antioxidant activity of such compounds. A series (4,5,6) of alkylaminophenol compounds were prepared with very high yields by Petasis reaction. Synthesized compounds were characterized by 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR. The obtained compounds were tested against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The compound 4 showed antimicrobial activity at a concentration of 10 mg/mL, while the 6 compound showed activity on S. aureus. Phenolic compounds have attracted attention due to their proximal and antioxidant activities. Since alkylaminophenols have phenolic structure, their antioxidant activity has been investigated. Thus, drug-active substances with high antioxidant capacity against diabetes, heart disease, and cancer were synthesized
