Abstract
Syntheses and antimicrobial activity of 3-alkoxymethyl-1-ethyl-, 3-alk ylthiomethyl-1-ethyl-, 3-alkoxymethyl-1-butyl-, and 3-alkylthiomethyl- 1-butylbenzimidazolium chlorides are described. The compounds were obt ained by reaction of 1-ethyl- or 1-butylbenzimidazole with chloromethy lalkyl ethers or chloromethylalkyl sulfide. Antibacterial properties w ere tested on 13 strains of bacteria and fungi. 3-Dodecylthio-methyl-1 -ethyl-benzimidazolium chloride exhibited the highest antibacterial ac tivity.
