Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of New Bis-Indolyl (3-O-Benzyl-1,2-O-Isopropylidenexylopentadialdose-α-D-Glucofuranose)

3-O-benzyl-1,2-O-isopropylidene-xylopentadialdose has emerged as structurally new antibacterial and anti-inflammatory agent. Therefore, various substituted bis-indolyl- (3-O-benzyl-1,2-O-isopropylidene-xylopentadialdose glucofuranose) derivatives were synthesized by addition of substituted xylopentadialdose with various substituted indoles. The structures of the synthesized compounds were characterized by IR, H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR, and mass spectroscopy techniques. All the synthesised compounds showed maximum zone of inhibition againt both Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms. In the anti-inflammatory activity test, three compounds (1, 3 and 5) produced significant activity in a dose-dependent manner.
