Phenylbenzamide framework as a mimic of the azasterol structure was investigated by synthesizing 4-phenylbenzamido-2-aminothiazole 4, and evaluating its MIC against Escherichia coli, Enterobacter cloacae, Bacillus licheniformis and Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) H(37)Rv as well as antifungal activity against three test phytopathogenic fungi. Further, the bioisosterism strategy was implemented to synthesize a series of azo-derivatives of 4 (6a-6j). All the azo-compounds were screened for their antibacterial and antifungal activity. The electronic (UV-vis) absorption characteristics of the final compounds were examined. Resazurin-mediated microtitre plate-antibacterial assay was implemented for first time on these azo-derivatives. Compounds 4 and 6b had significant antibacterial activity. For the compound 4, MIC against Escherichia coli is 7.8 x 10(-3) mg/mL and MIC against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) H(37)Rv is 16 mu g/mL were identified. Compounds 4, 6d, 6g and 6h showed excellent antifungal activity, when compared to the standard nistatin, against three test phytopathogenic fungi.
