In this work, we have synthesized twenty five new 2-(5-(5-nitrofuran-2-yl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-ylimino)thiazolidin-4-one derivatives bearing an aryl or heteroaryl methylene group on position 5 of thiazolidinone and evaluated their antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive and -negative bacteria as well as three metronidazole resistant Helicobacter pylori strains. Most of the compounds were very potent towards tested Gram-positive bacteria and showed an antibacterial efficacy substantially greater than ampicillin as the reference drug. However, no effectiveness was observed for the Gram-negative microorganisms.

Background: Bacterial resistance to the available antibiotics is a life threatening issue and researchers are trying to find new drugs to overcome this problem. Amongst the different structural classes, thiazolidinone-4-one, as a new effective pharmacophore against various bacteria, has been introduced.

Objective: A new series of 2-(5-(5-nitrothiophene-2-yl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-ylimino)-5-arylidenethiazolidin- 4-one derivatives were designed and synthesized as new antibacterial agents.

The uses of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are limited by a variety of side effects. So research on preparing new analgesic agents is important. According to some reports about the analgesic activity of hydrazide and hydrazine derivatives a new series of these compounds were synthesized in order to obtain new analgesic compounds.
