Abstract
A novel series of azomethines of aryl oxazoles were synthesised and investigated for their antimicrobial activity against Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria using antibiotic diffusion method. The recorded data of zone of inhibition showed significant broad activity when compared with standard. The sensitivity of the Gram positive bacteria to the tested compounds was higher than that of Gram negative bacteria. The synthesised compounds were also screened for antifungal activity and observed that they had an inhibitory effect against the pathogenic fungi.
