title: In vitro antifungal activity of 3-phenyl-2H-benzoxazine-2,4(3H)-diones.
abstract: A series of 81 3-phenyl-2H-benzoxazine-2,4(3H)-diones with substitution at C(6) on the benzoxazine ring and on the phenyl moiety was synthesized; the compounds were evaluated for antifungal activity against five strains of potentially pathogenic fungi (Absidia corymbifera, Aspergillus fumigatus, Candida albicans, Microsporum gypseum and Trichophyton mentagrophytes). Structure-activity relationships against T. mentagrophytes and M. gypseum were determined using the Free-Wilson method, which was further combined with the approach of Hansch. In vitro antifungal activity becomes higher with increasing electron-accepting ability of the substituents on the phenyl ring, and with increasing lipophilicity.
