Abstract

6-Hydroxy-1H-carbazole-1,4(9H)-diones were synthesized and tested for in vitro Antifungal activity against two pathogenic strains of fungi. Among them tested, many compounds showed good Antifungal activity. The results suggest that 6-hydroxy-1H-carbazole-1,4(9H)-diones would be potent Antifungal agents.
