It is well known that phenolate anions react with benzo[1,2-c]1,2,5-oxadiazole N-oxides (benzofuroxans) to afford phenazine N,N-dioxide derivatives. These are obtained through an heterocycle expansion process by reaction of the corresponding 1,2,5-oxadiazole system with the phenolate carbanion generated in basic medium attacking one of the heterocyclic nitrogen (Figure 1). When substituted benz...

In the title compound, C(16)H(14)N(2)O(3), the essentially planar 1,3,4-oxadiazole ring [maximum deviation = 0.0021 (11) Å] is inclined at dihedral angles of 8.06 (6) and 11.21 (6)° with respect to the two benzene rings; the dihedral angle between the latter rings is 11.66 (5)°. In the crystal, short inter-molecular C⋯O inter-actions [2.9968 (15) Å] connect adjacent mol-ecules into chains propa...

Poly(1,3,4-oxadiazole-ether) with reactive carboxylic acid pendants was synthesized from solution polymerization via nucleophilic displacement polycondensation among 2,5-bis(4-fluorophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (BFPOx) and 4,4'-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl) valeric acid (BHPA). Without altering the polymeric segments, benzimidazole modified poly(1,3,4-oxadiazole-ether)s were prepared by varying stoichiometr...

In the title compound, C(10)H(8)Cl(2)N(2)O(2)S·0.5H(2)O, the atoms in the oxadiazole ring are essentially coplanar (r.m.s. deviation 0.010 Å). The crystal structure is stabilized by inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds involving the water mol-ecule, which is situated on an a twofold rotation axis, and two organic mol-ecules, leading to a thione tautomer in the solid state. The C atom attached t...

Benzodiazepines are useful drugs for treatment of sleep disorders, anxiety, seizure cases and skeletal muscle cramps. Some derivatives of 2-(2-Phenoxy) phenyl-1, 3, 4-oxadiazole were synthesized as benzodiazepine receptor agonists. Conformational analysis and superimposition of energy minima conformers of the compounds on estazolam, a known benzodiazepine agonist, reveal that the main proposed ...

The carbohydrazide 1 was used as the precursor for the synthesis of a number of new aromatic C-nucleosides containing 1,3,4-oxadiazole 7, [1,3,4]oxadiazolo[2,3-a]isoindole 10b and pyrazole units 18. On the other hand, the thiosemicarbazone 20 was used as the key intermediate for synthesis of 1,3,4-oxadiazole  and 1,2,4-triazole-3-thione derivatives 21 and 23. The antioxidant activities of the p...

In the title compound, C(36)H(44)N(4)O(4)S, the dihedral angles between the central thio-phene ring and the pendent oxadiazole rings are 12.7 (2) and 13.7 (2)°, and the dihedral angles between the oxadiazole rings and their adjacent benzene rings are 6.1 (2) and 17.5 (2)°. An intra-molecular C-H⋯O inter-action may help to establish the conformation.

In the title compound, C(14)H(16)ClN(3)O(2)S, the dihedral angle between the 4-chloro-phenyl and 1,3,4-oxadiazole rings is 67.1 (1)° and the orientation of the amide N-H and C=O bonds is anti. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by N-H⋯O and N-H⋯S hydrogen bonds.

The systematic synthesis and photophysical, electrochemical and computational studies on an extended series of triphenylamine-[C≡C-1,4-C6H2(OR)2]n-C≡C-diphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole dyad molecules (the OR groups are at 2,5-positions of the para-phenylene ring and R = C6H13; n = 0-5, compounds 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, respectively) are reported. Related molecules with identical end groups, triphenylamine-C≡...
