In order to obtain some information on the action mechanism of 2-(2-hydroxyphenyliminomethyl)-4-n-hexylphenol (II) as a possible anticancer agent a series of experiments were performed, in which the influence of II on macromolecular synthesis and energy metabolism was examined employing B. subtilis in vitro. As the results, net synthesis of RNA was fairly inhibited by II at the level of 10μM, though DNA and protein syntheses were less affected under the same conditions. Both respiration and anaerobic glycolysis of the bacterial cell were suppressed at the concentration of 33.3μM or more of II. Then, it might be postulated that depression of RNA synthesis in one hand and suppression of respiration and anaerobic glycolysis in the other are responsible for the inhibition of the bacterial growth. Additionally, experimental data suggest that metal chelating ability of II might be contributing to the antibacterial action, because the inhibition of bacterial growth by II could be almost completely reversed by either Fe^<2+>, or Fe^<3+>, or Mn^<2+>.
