The novel racemic secondary alcohol (±)-2-{[4-(4-bromophenyl)-5-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl]sulfanyl}-1-phenyl-1-ethanol (12) has been successfully synthesized through S-alkylation of 4-(4-bromophenyl)-5-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol (10) in alkaline medium with 2-bromo-1-phenylethanone followed by reduction the corresponding ketone 11. All compounds were characterized IR, 1D (1H, 13C, DEPT...
