Novel antifungals based on 4-substituted imidazole: solid-phase synthesis of substituted aryl sulfonamides towards optimization of in vitro activity

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2000 Dec 18;10(24):2735-9. doi: 10.1016/s0960-894x(00)00551-5.

Abstract

The in vitro activity of novel 4-substituted imidazole antifungals was optimized by solid-phase chemistry and parallel synthesis. Potent yeast-selective as well as broad-spectrum antifungal compounds (32 and 20) were discovered.
