As a part of our ongoing studies in developing new derivatives as dual antimicrobial/anti-inflammatory agents we describe the synthesis of novel 5-arylidene-2-(1,3-thiazol-2-ylimino)-1,3-thiazolidin-4-ones. All newly synthesized compounds were tested for their anti-inflammatory activity using carrageenan mouse paw edema bioassay. Their COX-1/LOX inhibitory activities were also determined. Moreover, all compounds were evaluated for their antimicrobial and antifungal activities against a panel of Gram positive, Gram negative bacteria and moulds. All tested compounds exhibited better antimicrobial activity than commercial drugs, bifonazole, ketoconazole, ampicillin and streptomycin. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
