Abstract:
A novel ferrocene fluconazole analogue was synthesized and its antifungal properties investigated against yeast strains of medical importance, including those intrinsically resistant to fluconazole. In vitro tests revealed a slight increase in fungal growth and a reversal of the effect of fluconazole at minimal inhibitory concentrations.
