Twelve new triazole derivatives of Phrymarolin were prepared from Phrymarolin I and the structures of all the derivatives were fully characterized by (1)H-NMR, (13)C-NMR and MS spectral data analyses. Larvicidal activities against 4rd instar larvae of Culex pipiens pallens of these Phrymarolin analogues were assayed. Although the triazole derivatives of Phrymarolin showed certain larvicidal act...

A combination of experimental methods, photoelectron-imaging spectroscopy, flowing afterglow-photoelectron spectroscopy and the flowing afterglow-selected ion flow tube technique, and electronic structure calculations at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level of density functional theory (DFT) have been employed to study the mechanism of the reaction of the hydroxide ion (HO-) with 1H-1,2,3-triazole. Fo...

A number of new substituted 1,2,4-triazole, 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]1,3,4-thiadiazole and 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]1,3,4-thiadiazine derivatives were synthesized and tested for their antimicrobial activity against Bacillus subtilis (Gram-positive), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Gram-negative), and Streptomyces species (Actinomycetes). The synthesized compounds displayed different degrees of antimicrobial ac...

In the title triazolothia-diazine derivative, C(20)H(16)N(6)O(3)S {systematic name: 3-(4-methyl-phen-yl)-4-[3-(phen-oxy-meth-yl)-7H-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thia-diazin-6-yl]-1,2,3-oxadiazol-3-ium-5-olate}, an S(6) ring motif is generated by an intra-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bond. The 3,6-dihydro-1,3,4-thia-diazine ring adopts a twist-boat conformation. The dihedral angle between the 1,2,3-o...

Protein phosphorylation is a ubiquitous post-translational modification, and protein kinases, the enzymes that catalyze the phosphoryl transfer, are involved in nearly every aspect of normal, as well as aberrant, cell function. Here we describe the synthesis of novel, red-shifted 8-hydroxyquinoline-based fluorophores and their incorporation into peptidyl kinase activity reporters. Replacement o...

Recently described biphenyl analogues of the antituberculosis drug PA-824 displayed improved potencies against M. tuberculosis but were poorly soluble. Heterobiaryl analogues of these, in which the first phenyl ring was replaced with various 5-membered ring heterocycles, were prepared with the aim of identifying potent new candidates with improved aqueous solubility. The compounds were construc...

The synthetic pathway for 6-substituted phenyl-2-[{(4'-substituted phenyl-5'-thioxo)-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl}-methyl]-2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyridazin-3-one compounds was achieved by a sequence of reactions starting from respective aryl hydrocarbons and is illustrated in Scheme 1. All the compounds were tested for their in vitro antifungal activity on five fungal species, namely Candida albicans, Trichop...

New chiral (S,E)-γ-N,N-dibenzylated nitroalkenes 2a-c were synthesized from natural L-(α)-amino acids in five steps with overall yields of 68-88%. The conjugate addition of hydride, methoxide, nitronate and azide nucleophiles to 2a-c led to the corresponding chiral 1,3-nitroamines in 74-90% yield. The conjugate addition of cyanide anion to 2a,b was followed by HNO2 elimination affording chiral ...

A series of S-glucosides 11a-14a and their benzamido derivatives 11b-14b have been synthesized by reacting D-glucose with thiol groups of 5-(2’-aminophenylene)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2thioles 7(a,b), 5-(2’-aminophenylene)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiols 8(a,b), 5-(2’-aminophenylene)-1,2,4triazole-3-thiols 9(a,b) and 5-(2’-aminophenylene)-4-N-amino-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiols 10(a,b). The thiols 7(a,b)-10(a,b)...

The title triterpene, C(35)H(53)N(3)O(4), is a C-28 carbamate derivative of 3β-acet-oxy-betulin prepared in a one-step reaction from the commercially available 1,1'-carbonyl-di(1,2,4-triazole) (CDT), crystallized from acetone/n-hexane. All rings are trans fused. The carbamate and acetate substituents are in axial and equatorial positions, respectively. A quantum chemical ab initio Roothaan Hart...
