Abstract
Ethers of 1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-(1-H-imidazolyl bearing ramified an d/or unsaturated chains have been synthesized in order to specify the role of lipophilicity or steric contributions on antifungal activity a gainst yeast for miconazole-like structures. The presence of ramificat ions on aliphatic chains (between 4 and 7 carbons) or unsaturation at the end, increases antifungal activity. For these compounds, lipophili city seems to be counterbalanced by steric contributions.
