Reductive ring contraction of 1,3-diphenyl-1,4-dihydrobenzo[e][1,2,4]triazin-4-yls (Blatter's radicals) using zinc powder (2 equiv.) in acetic acid heated to ca. 118 °C gives 1,2-diphenylbenzimidazoles in high yield. 1,3-Diphenylbenzo[e][1,2,4]triazin-7(1H)-one and the zwitterionic tetraphenylhexaazaanthracene (TPHA) also undergo reductive ring contractions to give 1,2-diphenylbenzimidaz-6-ol a...

A series of 5H-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ones were synthesized by the cyclization reactions of S-alkylated derivatives in concentrated H₂SO₄. Upon treatment of S-alkylated derivatives at different temperatures, intramolecular cyclization to 7-(substituted phenylamino)-5H-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ones or sulfonation of cyclized products to sulfonic acid derivatives occurred. The structures of...

epilepsy is the most frequnt nearological affiction and afflicts 1% about of the worlds population. currently there is an urgent need for the development of novel anticonvulsants with higher levels of potency and lower levels of toxicity. in this paper, a series of new 6-(substituted-phenyl)thiazolo[3,2-b][1,2,4]triazole derivatives were synthesized and tested for their anticonvulsant activity ...

44,081 R.P., or 2-[(1,5,10,10a-tetrahydro-3H-thiazolo[3,4-b]isoquinolin- 3-ylidine)amino]-4-thiazole acetic acid, is a compound which selectively inhibits rhinovirus in cell cultures. The compound, which was unable to inactivate infectivity of virions, appeared to act prior to RNA and protein synthesis without affecting adsorption or penetration of virus in MRC5 cells. In contrast, it protected...

In the title compound, C(21)H(24)N(2)O(3)S(2), the three five-membered rings adopt envelope conformations. The dihedral angle between the two aromatic rings is 68.4 (1)°. C-H⋯O inter-actions link the mol-ecules into a chain and the chains are cross-linked via C-H⋯π inter-actions involving the meth-oxy-phenyl ring.

Two regiodivergent approaches to intermolecular cyclization of 2-aminobenzothiazoles with β-ketoesters and amides have been developed, controlled by the reagents employed. With the Brønsted base KOt-Bu and CBrCl3 as radical initiator, benzo[d]imidazo[2,1-b]thiazoles are synthesized via attack at the α-carbon and keto carbon of the β-ketoester moiety. In contrast, switching to the Lewis acid cat...

anticonvulsant activity of 7-phenyl-5h-thiazolo[5,4-e][1,2,3,4]tetrazolo[5,1-c]pyrrolo[1,2-a][1,4]diazepine (5) and 7-phenyl-5h-thiazolo[5,4-e][1,3,4]triazolo[5,1-c]pyrrolo[1,2-a][1,4]diazepines (6a-d) was measured against pentylenetetrazole (ptz)-induced seizures in mice. intraperitoneal injections of different doses (12.5, 25 and 50 mg/kg, i.p.) of test compounds decreased ptz-induced seizure...

Anticonvulsant activity of 7-phenyl-5H-thiazolo[5,4-e][1,2,3,4]tetrazolo[5,1-c]pyrrolo[1,2-a][1,4]diazepine (5) and 7-phenyl-5H-thiazolo[5,4-e][1,3,4]triazolo[5,1-c]pyrrolo[1,2-a][1,4]diazepines (6a-d) was measured against pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced seizures in mice. Intraperitoneal injections of different doses (12.5, 25 and 50 mg/kg, i.p.) of test compounds decreased PTZ-induced seizure...

Intramolecular dipolar cycloaddition of bicyclic münchnones, 5H,7H-thiazolo[3,4-c]oxazol-4-ium-1-olates, derived from cyclodehydration of 2-substituted-N-acylthiazolidine-4-carboxylic acids are reported. A range of new pyrrolo[1,2-c]thiazole derivatives (7, 14, 15, 20, 23, and 26) were obtained as single enantiomers from 2-phenylthiazolidines, 2-benzoylthiazolidines, and 2-methylthiazolidine-4-...
