Purpose: In this study, we have focused on antibacterial effect of newly synthesized thiazole, imidazole, and tetrahydropyrimidine derivatives in Iran on listeria monocytogenes. Materials and Methods: For evaluation of antibacterial effect, the disk diffusion method was applied to measure the growth inhibition zone diameter and broth micro dilution was performed to determine the minimum inhibit...

It has now been firmly established by several groups of workers (1-10) that in yeast thiamine is enzymatically synthesized from pyrimidine pyrophosphate and thiazole monophosphate. However, there is little information about the biosynthetic pathways of pyrimidine and thiazole themselves. Thiamine was found as the first natural com pound containing a thiazole ring. Recently, the presence of the ...

A series of ethyl 2-[2-arylamino-4-(thiophen-2-yl)thiazol-5-yl] acetates (5a-5k) and ethyl 2-[2-(arylhydrazino)-4-(thiophen-2-yl)thiazol-5-yl] acetates (9a-9g) were synthesized and screened for their anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antioxidant activities. In vivo test results showed that the compounds with halogen substitution (5c, 5g, 5h, 5i and 5j) at the para position on the 2-aryl amino g...

Detailed structural and noncovalent interactions in two thiazole derivatives (N-(4-Bromophenyl)-2-(methylthio)thiazole-5-carboxamide Ethyl-5-((4-bromophenyl)carbamoyl)thiazole-4-carboxylate) are investigated by single crystal X-ray diffraction study computational approaches. The structure investigation revealed that various like C-H…O, N-H…O, N-H…N hydrogen bonds Br…Br involved constructing rin...

2-Hydrazino-4-(5-nitro-2-furyl)thiazole , 2-(2 , 2-dimethyihy drazi no)-4-(5-nitro-2-furyl)thiazole, 2-hydrazino-4-(4-nitro phenyl)thiazole, and 2-hydrazino-4-(4-aminophenyl)thiazole were fed to female Sprague-Dawley rats, and all were found to be potent carcinogens. Each induced chiefly carcinomas of the mammary gland (32/35 , 30/3 1, 27/34, 34/35 , respec tively), as well as a lower incidence...

In the search for new and effective prodrugs against the herpes simplex virus, a series of acyclovir analogues with a thiazole ring containing amino acids (glycine, alanine, valine, leucine) has been investigated. The chemical stability of some of the compounds containing different residues was studied at pH 1 and pH 7.4 at a temperature of 37°C. An HPLC method was developed for quantification ...

[reaction: see text] The chiral disphosphines with tunable dihedral angles (TunaPhos) have been used for asymmetric hydrogenation of enol acetates and dihedral-angle-dependent enantioselectivities were observed. C2-TunaPhos has been proved to be effective for Ru-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of electron-deficient and other enol acetates.

This review discusses the tertiary phosphines possessing various chiral skeletons that have been used in asymmetric nucleophilic organocatalytic reactions, including annulations of allenes, alkynes, and Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) acetates, carbonates, and ketenes with activated alkenes and imines, allylic substitutions of MBH acetates and carbonates, Michael additions, γ-umpolung additions, an...

The biosynthesis of thiamine appears to be accomplished with the initial formation of the pyrimidine and thiazole moieties by independent biosynthetic pathways, followed by a final step in which 2-methyl-4-amino-5-hydroxymethylpyrimidine and 4methyl-5-(/3-hydroxyethyl) thiazole are joined together to give thiamine. This conclusion was indicated originally from the observations that certain thia...
