In continuation to our previous work, thiazolopyrimidines 2a-x were synthesized through intramolecular cyclization of 2-phenacylthio-dihydropyrimidine hydrobromides 1a-x using polyphosphoric acid. On the other hand, thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidine-3-one 3 was coupled with aryldiazonium salts or condensed with isatin to afford compounds 4a-c or 5, respectively. Chemical structure of the target compounds was substantiated by IR, FT-IR, (1)H-, (13)C and DEPT-(13)C NMR, MS as well as microanalyses.

The present work describes the synthesis and evaluation of some new acetohydrazones, 1,3,4-oxadiazoles and 1,2,4-triazoles of 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]benzimidazole as anti-inflamm atory-analgesic agents. Structure elucidation of these compounds was confirmed by IR, (1)H NMR, and mass spectrometry along with elemental microanalyses. Most compounds exhibited significant anti-inflammatory activity in comparison to indomethacin.

A near-infrared fluorochrome, GPU-311, was designed, synthesized and evaluated for its application in non-invasive imaging of tumor hypoxia. Efficient synthesis was achieved by nucleophilic substitution and click chemistry ring using the bifunctional tetraethylene glycol linker 2 containing thiol and azide groups for the conjugation of the propargylated nitroimidazole 1 and the heptamethine cyanine dye 3 bearing a 2-chloro-1-cyclohexenyl ring. GPU-311 exhibited long excitation and emission wavelength (Ex/Em=785/802 nm) and a decent quantum yield (0.

This study is concerned with the synthesis of new 1,2,4-triazoles, 1,3,4-thiadiazoles, and 1,3,4-thiadiazines derivatives. Derivatives 3a-i were obtained by condensation of 4-amino-3-(4-pyridine)-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazole 1 with the appropriate aldehyde. Compounds 4a-i were synthesized in a one pot reaction involving compounds 3a-i, formaldehyde, and morpholine.

5-Acyl-8-hydroxyquinoline-2-(3'-substituted-4'-aryl-2,3-dihydrothiazol-2'-ylidene)hydrazones, 5a-e to 10a-c, were prepared by the reaction of appropriate 5-acyl-8-hydroxyquinoline-4-substituted thiosemicarbazones 3a-e and phenacyl bromides 4a-e. Structures of the new compounds were verified on the basis of spectral and elemental analyses. Twenty-eight new compounds were tested for their possible antimicrobial activities.

The purpose of this study is based upon design and synthesis of a new series of flexible molecules of 3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-1,3,5-thiadiazine-2-thione (THTT) derivatives depending upon incorporation of 2-aminoethanol as a part of the polar moiety in this nucleus. Thirteen derivatives of 3-substituted-5-(2-hydroxyethyl)-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-1,3,5-thiadiazine-2-thione were synthesized by reaction of the appropriate alkyl, cycloalkyl, aralkyl amine, or glycine with carbon disulphide, formaldehyde, and 2-aminoethanol. The structures of the target compounds were elucidated using spectral methods as well as elemental analyses.

Certain new derivatives of 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines were synthesized through the reaction of 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-7-ol with ethyl bromoacetate to afford the ethyl acetate ester, which upon hydrazinolysis gives the corresponding hydrazide. The hydrazide is the key intermediate which was used for the synthesis of the target compounds. The structures of the new compounds were assigned by spectral and elemental methods of analyses.

Several selenolo[2,3-b]quinolines and pyrimido[4',5':4,5]selenolo[2,3-b]quinolines were prepared by annulations via reaction of NaSeH with 2-chloro-3-cyano-4-methylquinoline 1 followed by reactions with aromatic aldehydes, cycloalkanones, and acetic anhydride. Spectroscopic (IR, 1H-NMR, and MS) properties of the synthesized compounds are reported. Some selected compounds 5a, 7b, 7c, 8b-d, 9a, 11b, and 11d were investigated for their anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities; in addition, the most active compounds were tested for their ulcerogenicity and acute toxicity.

A series of new 3-(substituted) 3-hydroxy-propanoic acid ethyl esters 1a-c, hydrazides 2a-c, thiosemicarbazides 3a-f, and semicarbazides 3g, 3h has been synthesized. Cyclization of compounds 3a-d in basic medium yielded 1,2,4-triazole-5-thiones 4a-d. On the other hand, reaction of hydrazides 2a-c with CS(2 )in basic medium afforded 1,3,4-oxadiazole-5-thiones 5a-c.

Some new derivatives of 1,2,4-triazolo[2,3-a]benzimidazoles were synthesized through the reaction of 1,2-diaminobenzimidazole with carbon disulfide. The resulting 1,2,4-triazolo[2,3-a]benzimidazole-2-thione intermediate reacted with one equivalent of the alkyl halide to give the corresponding 2-alkylthio derivative 3a-g. The latters were acylated to afford the 1-acyl-2-alkylthio-1,2,4-triazolo[2,3-a]-benzimidazole derivatives 4-10 in good yields.

Some new derivatives of 1,2,4-triazolo[2,3-a]benzimidazoles were synthesized through the reaction of 1,2-diaminobenzimidazole with carbon disulfide. The resulting 1,2,4-triazolo-[2,3-a]benzimidazole-2-thione intermediate was reacted with one equivalent of alkyl halides to give the corresponding 2-alkylthio derivatives, which were further alkylated through the reaction with another one equivalent of different alkyl halides to afford the target compounds; 1-alkyl-2-alkylthio-1,2,4-traizolo[2,3-a]benzimidazoles. On the other hand, the 1,2-disubstituted derivatives with two identical alkyl substituents were prepared by the reaction of 1,2,4-triazolo[2,3-a]benzimidazole-2-thione with two equivalents of the alkyl halides.

The new title derivatives (4b-h and 5a-i) were synthesized by reaction of the appropriate primary amine, carbon disulphide, and formaldehyde. These derivatives were prepared in order to study the effects of introducing polar groups at N3 or N5 or at both positions on the biological activity. The compounds were tested for their antifungal activity in vitro against pathogenic (Trichophyton rubrum and Candida albicans), phytopathogenic (Penicillum expansum, Trichoderma hazianum, and Fasarium oxysporum), and aflatoxin-producing (Aspergillus flavus) fungi.
