Synthesis, Spectral Characterization, Antibacterial, Antifungal and Anticancer Evaluation of N-[4-(1,3-Benzothiazol-2-ylcarbamoyl)phenyl]pyrazine-2-carboxamide

Abstract

A new organic compound, N-[4-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-ylcarbamoyl)-phenyl]pyrazine-2-carboxamide was synthesized through the reaction between 4-amino-N-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)benzamide and pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid. The synthesized compound has been characterized by spectroscopic techniques such as 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FT-IR and mass spectroscopy. The synthesized compound was screened to antibacterial (Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumonia and Escherichia coli), antifungal (Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger) activities. The anticancer activity of the title compound was also evaluated against MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells.
