A new series of 3-(4-substituted phenyl)-1-(4-(4,6-dimethyl-6H-1,3-thiazin-2-yl)phenylsulfonyl)-1-substituted urea (5a-o) was synthesized by an effectual route via sulfonylcarbamates and explores the novel site for substitution in sulfonylurea as well as the way of thiazine can be prepared. The molecules were established by elemental analysis and spectroscopic viz. IR, (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR and MS techniques.

A newer series of 1-(4-substitutedphenyl)-3-(4-((2,4-dioxothiazolidin-5-lidene)methyl)phenyl sulfonyl)urea/thiourea (4a-l) were synthesized for their anticonvulsant activity. The activity is attributed to its potential to restrain astrocytic Na+, 2HCl, and K+ co-transport similar to torasemide which has sulfonylurea in its structure. Torasemide having the similar action as the furosemide that obstructs kainic acid-induced electrical discharges observed from cortex and it has neuroprotective agents, for instance antagonizing the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and non-NMDA receptors for evaluating antiepileptic activity.

In the present study a series of new N(4)-(4-substituted benzylidene)-N(1)-([1,3,4]thiadiazino [6,5-b]indol-3-yl)semicarbazide (1-6), N(4)-([1,3,4]thiadiazino[6,5-b]indol-3-yl)-N(1)-(1-(4-substituted phenyl)ethylidene)semicarbazide (7-10), N(4)-([1,3,4]thiadiazino[6,5-b]indol-3-yl)-N(1)-((4-substituted phenyl)(phenyl)methylene) semicarbazide. (11-14) have been synthesized from isatin and thiosemicarbazide through multiple steps to meet structural necessities for the anticonvulsant activity. All the newly prepared compounds were characterized by spectral techniques like FT-IR, (1)H and (13)C NMR, EI-MS and elemental analysis.

Filariasis is result of parasitic infection caused by three specific kinds of round worm. Lymphatic filariasis is found in under developed region of South America, Central Africa, pacific and Caribbian. It has been found for centuries, with main symptoms as elephant like swelling of the arms, legs and genitals.
