1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives constitute a group of biologically important compounds that have been used as analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antifungal, antispasmodic, or psychotropic drugs in addition to their role plant growth regulation and monoamine oxidase inhibition. This study focused on the use microwaves synthesis oxadiazole containing thiazolidinediones, which are promising...

A series of biaxial V-shaped, shape-persistent molecules has been synthesised by stepwise coupling of phenylene ethynylene arms to an oxadiazole bending unit. Studies of their thermotropic nematic phases point to phase biaxiality.

In the title mol-ecule, C(25)H(19)N(3)O(3)S(3), the tetra-hydro-pyridine ring adopts a half-chair conformation. The dihedral angle between the least-squares plane through the tetra-hydro-pyridine ring and two thio-phene and two benzene rings are 6.25 (9), 89.49 (9), 76.43 (9) and 84.93 (8)°, respectively, while the dihedral angle between the 1,3,4-oxadiazole and tetra-hydro-pyridine rings is 81...

In the title compound, C(28)H(24)F(2)N(2)O(6)S, the whole mol-ecule is disordered over two sites with refined occupancies of 0.778 (3) and 0.222 (3). The central benzene ring makes dihedral angles of 56.0 (4), 34.5 (4) and 70.9 (4)°, respectively, with the two terminal benzene rings and the 1,3,4-oxadiazole ring in the major component of the disordered mol-ecule. The corresponding angles in the...

Apart from carbon atoms, some cyclic molecules contain other elements and play an extraordinary role in human life. Among these systems, 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives deserve special attention due to their biological properties such as antibacterial, antifungal, antitumor, anti-inflammatory properties. They are commonly used pharmacology, well fungicidal, herbicidal, insecticidal agricultural ap...

Parasitic flatworms cause serious infectious diseases that affect humans and livestock in vast regions of the world, yet there are few effective drugs to treat them. Thioredoxin glutathione reductase (TGR) is an essential enzyme for redox homeostasis in flatworm parasites and a promising pharmacological target. We purified to homogeneity and characterized the TGR from the tapeworm Mesocestoides...

The title compound, C(14)H(8)N(4)O(6), a new 1,2,5-oxadiazole N-oxide derivative, was formed by dimerization of 4-nitro-benz-al-de-hyde oxime. The compound crystallizes with two independent mol-ecules per asymmetric unit. The N-oxide O atom is disordered over two sites in each mol-ecule; site occupancy factors are 0.57/0.43 and 0.5/0.5. The mean planes through the two benzene rings are inclined...

Metabolites of a G protein-coupled receptor modulator containing 1,2,4-oxadiazole and piperazine substructures were identified in vitro in human, rat, and dog hepatocyte incubates and in vivo in rat plasma, bile, urine, and feces by using 14C-radiolabeled parent compound. Exposure coverage for the major circulating metabolites in humans at steady state and in preclinical species used in drug sa...

A series of 3,4-diaryl-1,2,5-oxadiazoles and 3,4-diaryl-1,2,5-oxadiazole N-oxides were prepared and evaluated for COX-2 and COX-1 binding affinity in vitro and for antiinflammatory activity by the rat paw edema method. p-Methoxy (p-OMe) substituted compounds 9, 21, 34, 41, 42 showed COX-2 enzyme inhibition higher than that showed by compounds with other substituents. 3,4-Di(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,2...

The glycosylation of 1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiones has been performed with peracetylated β-pyranosyl bromide in the presence of potassium carbonate. Deprotection of acetylated thioglycosides was necessary for increasing their antibacterial effects. The structures of nucleosides were confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS. The anomeric protons of nucleosides c1-4 were assigned to the doublet, confir...
