Abstract

A novel series of imidazol-5-yl carbinols and their 4-chlorobenzoyl esters has been synthesized by the Grignard reaction and subsequent esterification. These compounds were screened for their antimicrobial activities in an agar diffusion assay. The compounds with C10 to C12-alkyl side chains displayed significant antimycotic activity.
