New peroxides and their antimicrobial activity.
Antimicrobial activity of hydroperoxides and cyclic peroxides has been studied. 2,4-Dihydroperoxy-2,4-dimethylpentane (1) and 2,5-dihydroperoxy-2,5-dimethylhexane (2) were active against microorganism, but 1 showed a large specially against C. albicans, M. luteus and B. subtilis with a MIC value of 31.5 mcg/ml.
