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...

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...

The study of the effectiveness of several potential copper corrosion inhibitors in acidic media was studied. The investigated thiazole derivative functional groups contain heterocyclic atoms such as nitrogen, sulfur, and oxygen. Thiazole derivatives, 5-benzylidene-2,4-dioxotetrahydro-1,3-thiazole (BDT) 5-(4′-isopropylbenzylidene)-2,4-dioxotetrahydro-1,3-thiazole (IPBDT), 5-(3′-thenylidene)-2,4-...

The photophysical properties and excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) processes for 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl)-4-chloromethylthiazole (1), 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl)-4-phenylthiazole (2), 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl)-4-hydroxymethyl-thiazole (3) were studied at the TD-B3PW91/6–31 + G(d, p)/IEFPCM level. structures of 1–3 fully optimized corresponding structural parameters, infrared spectra electron...

Fungus growth methods for estimating either vitamin B1 thiazole or vitamin B1 pyrimidinel have been used by Robbins and Kavanagh (l), Kavanagh (2), and Krampitz and Woolley (3), and a fermentation stimulation method has been described by Schultz, Atkin, and Frey (4). A procedure utilizing the synthesis of vitamin B1 by yeast from thiazole and pyrimidine has been used in this laboratory to estim...

Treatment of N-substituted 2-(methylamino)naphthoquinones 3 and -anthracene-1,4-diones 4 with S2Cl2 and DABCO in chlorobenzene gave the corresponding 2,3-dihydronaphtho[2,3-d][1,3]thiazole-4,9-diones 1 and 2,3-dihydroanthra[2,3-d][1,3]thiazole-4,11-diones 2 by triethylamine addition, in high to moderate yields. The DABCO replacement for N-ethyldiisopropylamine in the reaction of anthracene-1,4-...

A series of novel thiazole derivatives (A, A1, A2) were synthesized starting from 1-(3-methoxy phenyl) ethanone and thiourea. The compound (A) was obtained by heating 1-(3-methoxy phenyl) ethanone with thiourea in iodine. Compound (A) on treatment with 4-nitrobenzaldehyde afforded (Z)-4-(3-methoxyphenyl)-N-(4-nitrobenzylidene) thiazole-2-amine (A1). Acylation of compound (A) with 4-nitrobenzoyl...

The present paper describes the biosynthesis of the thiamin thiazole in Bacillus subtilis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The two pathways are quite different: in B. subtilis, the thiazole is formed by an oxidative condensation of glycine, deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate and a protein thiocarboxylate, whereas, in S. cerevisiae, the thiazole is assembled from glycine, NAD and Cys205 of the thiazole s...
