The phenyloxy acetamide esters (3-6) were synthesized reacting [3-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]acetic acid with ethyl esters of Phenylalanine, Tyrosine, 2-aminopyridine-3-carboxylic acid and 4-aminobenzoic acid. These compounds were hydrolyzed using sodium hydroxide to their respective acids (7-10). The newly synthesized compounds were tested for antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus Aureus, Pseudomonas Aeruginos, Aspergillus Flavus, Chrysosporium Keratinophilum, Candida Albicans and antioxidant activity by DPPH method. Compounds 3, 7, and 8 were most active as antimicrobials and 6 and 10 have shown promising antioxidant activity.
