Resumo
Sucrose esters are generally used as surfactants, fat substitutes and antibiotics. The aim of the present study was to synthesize new sucrose esters derived from picolinic acid (2-pyridine carboxylic acid) and study in vitro antimicrobial activity on the Gram-negative pathogenic bacterium Escherichia coli. The synthesis of sucrose picolinate was performed through the transesterification of sucrose with methyl picolinate under anhydrous conditions at 80°C using dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as the solvent and K2CO3 as the catalyst. The separation of the formed isomers was performed by HPLC in a semi-preparative chromatograph system. Five fractions were collected and applied to a disc-diffusion antibiogram in solid-medium tests at concentrations of 150, 300, 450, 600, 750 and 900 μg/mL. Fractions 2, 4 and 6 were active against E. coli. Fraction 4 (900 μg/mL) was the most efficient and was selected for the determination of antimicrobial activity in synergistic tests with EDTA at concentrations of 250, 500 and 750 μg/mL. The best result was obtained with 750 μg/mL of EDTA. Fraction 4 was characterized as a monosubstituted sucrose ester by FTIR and mass spectrometry (ESI-MS).
