This study demonstrates the first enantioselective synthesis of hydroxyalkyl- and aminoalkyl-substituted imidazoles, oxazoles, and thiazoles. The approach developed utilizes a highly effective one-pot reaction cascade that consists of either an organocatalytic epoxidation or aziridination of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes coupled with a [3+2]-annulation, in which amidines, ureas, or thioureas act as...

ABSTRACT: Mastitis causes significant economic losses to the dairy cattle industry. The present study aimed evaluate antibacterial properties of 39 heterocyclic derivatives (1,3-thiazoles and 4-thiazolidinones) against clinical mastitis isolates from cows. Milk samples were collected cows with bacterial species identified by PCR. Antibacterial activity was assessed using broth microdilution met...

Bartnicki-Garcia, S. (Rutgers, the State University, New Brunswick, N. J.), and Walter J. Nickerson. Thiamine and nicotinic acid: Anaerobic growth factors for Mucor rouxii. J. Bacteriol. 82:142-148. 1961.-Mucor rouxii requires preformed thiamine and nicotinic acid for anaerobic growth. Such requirements are not manifested during aerobic incubation. Aerobically, the fungus was shown to be able t...

Thiazoles and thiazolyl-pyrazole derivatives have been efficiently synthesized under neat reaction conditions in excellent yields. Condensation of 3-(2-bromoacetyl)-4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one (1), thiosemicarbazide (2) and various carbonyl compounds (3 & 5) gave corresponding thiazole (4) and thiazolylpyrazole derivatives (6) in excellent yields by using Hantzsch-Thiazole synthesis. The ...

BACKGROUND Thiazoles and 1,3,4-thiadiazoles have been reported to possess various pharmacological activities. RESULTS A novel series of thiazoles carrying 1,3,4-thiadiazole core were designed and prepared via the reaction of the 2-(4-methyl-2-phenylthiazole-5-carbonyl)-N-phenylhydrazinecarbo-thioamide with the appropriate hydrazonoyl chlorides. The structures of the newly synthesized compound...

Thiazoles, oxazole and their corresponding reduced derivatives, thiazolines and oxazolines, are found in marine sources exhibiting significant biological activities. The isolation, synthetic, and biological studies of these natural products, covering literature from January 2007 to June 2010, are summarized.

Endothiopeptides can easily be obtained via Ugi reaction using thio acids as acid components. If isonitriles with an acetal group are applied, the endothiopeptides can directly be converted into thiazoles using TMSCl-NaI under microwave irradiation.
