Structures of the two compounds were confirmed by NMR, IR and elemental analysis. Antibacterial activity of the compounds was tested by disk diffusion method against the bacteria strains <em>Staphylococcus aureus</em> and <em>Escherichia coli</em>. The compound <strong>1 </strong>was moderately active while <strong>2</strong> was highly active against all the bacteria species tested.</p><p>Academic Voices Vol.6 2016: 24-27</p> ER -
