Abstract
Synthesis and antibacterial activity of some novel sulfonamide derivatives of anacardic acid were (8a-8l) prepared from commercially available anacardic acid mixture (1a–d) isolated from a natural product Cashew Nut Shell Liquid (CNSL).Compounds (8a-8l) were tested for Gram positive and Gram negative bacterial cultures. Most of the compounds were showed active compared with standard drug ampicilline.
