Abstract: Thirty-eight new (4-(4-substituted-phenyl/2,4-disubstituted-phenyl)-thiazol-2-yl)hydrazine derivatives were synthesized in good yield and assayed for their in vitro anti-Candida activity, compared to topical and systemic antifungal drugs, against twenty-two clinical isolates of Candida spp. The concurrent presence of aliphatic chains or cycloaliphatic rings at N1-hydrazine and a 4-methyl/4-methoxyphenyl at C4 position of the thiazole nucleus exhibited an interesting anti-Candida inhibitory activity. Moreover, some of the most active compounds showed synergistic antifungal effects and lower cell toxicity when combined with clotrimazole.
