ABSTRACT. The aim of present study was the uses a series α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds (chalcones), in synthesis pyridine, pyran, thiophene, thiazole, together with their heterocyclic synthesis. work has resulted variety 2,5-dihydropyridine, hydrazide-hydrazone, thiophene derivatives, coumarin, pyran and thiazolo[4,5-d]thiazole derivatives. antitumor activities newly synthesized products w...

The synthesis, characterization, and functional in vitro assay in cardiac and smooth muscle (vascular and nonvascular) of a series of 4-imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole-1,4-dihydropyridines are reported. To define the calcium blocker nature of the imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole-1,4-DHPs and their selectivity on Cav1.2 and Cav1.3 isoforms, we performed binding studies on guinea pig atrial and ventricular membrane...

Thiasporine A (1), the first natural product with a 5-hydroxy-4H-1,3-thiazin-4-one moiety, along with two new thiazole derivatives, thiasporines B and C (2 and 3), were isolated from the marine-derived Actinomycetospora chlora SNC-032. The structures of 1-3 were established on the basis of comprehensive spectroscopic analysis and chemical methods. Thiasporine A showed cytotoxicity against the n...

Fourteen new thiazolyl hydrazone derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their anticandidal activity using a broth microdilution assay. Among the synthesized compounds, 2-[2-((5-(4-chloro-2-nitrophenyl)furan-2-yl)methylene)hydrazinyl]-4-(4-fluorophenyl)thiazole and 2-[2-((5-(4-chloro-2-nitrophenyl)furan-2-yl)methylene) hydrazinyl]-4-(4-methoxyphenyl)thiazole were found to be the most eff...

The characterization of a three-gene operon (the thiC operon) at 331 min, which is involved in thiamine biosynthesis in Bacillus subtilis, is described. The first gene in the operon is homologous to transcription activators in the lysR family. The second and third genes (thiK and thiC) have been subcloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli. ThiK (30 kDa) catalyzes the phosphorylation of 4-me...

a new 2-[(4-substituted-phenyl-3-chloroazetidin-2-one)-5-(2'-methylamino 4-phenyl-1', 3'-thiazolyl-]-1, 3, 4-thiadiazoles, 5(a-n) were synthesized from 2-substituted-benzylideneamino-5-[2'-methylamino-4'-phenyl-1',3'-thiazolyl]-1,3, 4-thiadiazole, 4(a-n) using 2-amino-4phenyl-1, 3-thiazole as a starting material. the synthesised compounds have been screened in vitro for their antimicrobial acti...

This study aimed for the synthesis of new heterocyclic compounds incorporating sulfamoyl moiety suitable for use as antimicrobial agents via a versatile, readily accessible N-[4-(aminosulfonyl)phenyl]-2-cyanoacetamide (3). The 2-pyridone derivatives were obtained via reaction of cyanoacetamide with acetylacetone or arylidenes malononitrile. Cycloaddition reaction of cyanoacetamide with salicyal...

BACKGROUND The Escherichia coli peptide antibiotic microcin B17 (MccB17) contains four oxazole and four thiazole rings, and inhibits DNA gyrase. The role of individual and tandem pairs of heterocycles in bioactivity has not been determined previously. RESULTS The two tandem 4,2-bisheterocycles in MccB17 were varied by expression of MccB17 or mutants containing altered sequences at Gly39-Ser40...

Four novel paulomycin derivatives have been isolated from S. albus J1074 grown in MFE culture medium. These compounds are structural analogs of antibiotics 273a2α and 273a2β containing a thiazole moiety, probably originated through an intramolecular Michael addition. The novel, thiazole, moiety-containing paulomycins show a lower antibiotic activity than paulomycins A and B against Gram-positiv...

Thiamin is synthesized by most prokaryotes and by eukaryotes such as yeast and plants. In all cases, the thiazole and pyrimidine moieties are synthesized in separate branches of the pathway and coupled to form thiamin phosphate. A final phosphorylation gives thiamin pyrophosphate, the active form of the cofactor. Over the past decade or so, biochemical and structural studies have elucidated mos...
