The in vitro antifungal activities of some naphthyl and thienyl derivatives of 1H-imidazol-1-yl-4-phenyl-1H-pyrrol-3-ylmethane against Candida albicans and Candida spp are reported. The title derivatives were prepared starting from proper arylstirylketones, which were reacted with tosylmethylisocyanide (Tos-MIC) to afford the related 4-phenyl-1H-pyrrol-3-yl aryl ketones. Reduction of ketones to the corresponding carbinols followed by treatment of the last compounds with 1,1'-carbonyldiimidazole (CDI) gave the title imidazoles. The related N-methylpyrrole derivatives are also described
