The preparation of a series of analogs of 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol linked to a 1,3,4-oxadiazole or 1,3,4-thiadiazole via an ethylene or methyleneoxy spacer is discussed.     

2-Amino-5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole and 2-amino-5-ethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole

The structures of 2-amino-5-methyl-1,3,4-thia­diazo­le, C₃H₅N₃S, and 2-amino-5-ethyl-1,3,4-thia­diazo­le, C₄H₇N₃S, have been determined for comparison with unsubstituted 2-amino-1,3,4-thia­diazo­le. Despite their different space groups (P2₁/n and Pbca, respectively), the packing modes of the methyl and ethyl derivatives are similar, with comparable three-dimensional hydrogen-bonding associations. This is in contrast to the hydrogen-bonding network in 2-amino-1,3,4-thia­diazo­le, which is one-dimensional and has denser packing. It is shown that both packing forms are different polymorphs of a specific subunit of each array.     

Thermally stable silarylene-1,3,4-oxadiazole polymers

The effects of incorporating a p-phenylene- (or m-phenylene)-1,3,4-oxadiazole fragment into the backbone of poly[1,4-phenylene(diphenylsilyl)-1,4-phenylene-2,5-(1,3,4-oxadiazole)], which was developed by the authors, was investigated. Bis[(p-carbohydrazidophenyl)]diphenylsilane was copolymerized with dipentachlorophenyl terephthalate or isophthalate to produce the prepolymers poly[N-(p-diphenylsilylbenzoyl)-N′N″-(terephthaloyl)-N″′-(p-benzoyl)dihydrazide] and poly[N-(p-diphenylsilylbenzoyl)-N′,-N″-(isophthaloyl)-N″′-p-(benzoyl) dihydrazide], respectively. The polyhydrazides were converted by thermal dehydration into poly[1,4-phenylene(diphenylsilyl)-1,4-phenylene-(1,3,4-oxadiazole-2,5-diyl)-1,4-phenylene-2,5-(1,3,4-oxadiazole)] and poly[1,4-phenyl-ene(diphenylsilyl)-1,4-phenylene-(1,3,4-oxadiazole-2,5-diyl)-1,3,4-(oxadiazole)]. The new polymers were soluble in organic solvents. Films cast from these solutions exhibited good adhesion to glass and metal surfaces. Thermal analysis showed that the heat stability of all these polymers was about the same and that they were resistant to decomposition when heated in air to about 400°C. The results also indicated that these polymers were somewhat less heat-resistant than samples of poly-[1,4-phenylene(diphenylsilyl)-1,4-phenylene-2,5-]1,3,4-(oxadiazole) synthesized from bis(p-carbohydrazidophenyl)diphenylsilane and bis-(p-carbopentachlorophenoxy-phenyl)diphenylsilane.     

Ring-opening reaction of 1,3,4-oxadiazolone and 1,3,4-oxadiazolinethione: Reaction of 2-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazolin-5-one and 2-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoline-5-thione with amines

The ring-opening abilities of amines toward 1,3,4-oxadiazolines, 2-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazolin-5-one ( 1a ) and 2-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoline-5-thione ( 1b ), were investigated with relation to their basicities or pK_b values. Oxadiazolines 1a and 1b were easily reacted with amines such as benzylamine and aniline, but not with p-nitroaniline, to form the corresponding ring-opening adducts. The reactions of both 1a and 1b with o-phenylenediamine produced benzodiazoles with the liberation of benzoylhydrazide, whereas the reactions with o-aminobenzamide furnished quinazolines with the liberation of ammonia. o-Aminophenol and o-aminothiophenol were also reacted with 1a and 1b both of them giving 1,5-dibenzoylcarbohydrazide from 1a and 1,2-dibenzoylhydrazine from 1b. From the conditions affording the corresponding ring-opening adducts or reaction products, the ring-opening abilities of the amines toward 1a and 1b are in good correlation with the strength of their basicities or pK_b values. The ring-opening of oxadiazolines were proved to occur with anilines. Therefore, the other reactions are also supposed to proceed via the ring-opening steps.     

Reactions of trichloromethylarenes with hydrazine derivatives. Synthesis of 2,5-disubstituted 1,3,4-oxadiazoles and 1,3,4-thiadiazoles

The effect of the solvent on the course of the reaction between trichloromethylarenes and thioacylhydrazines or acylhydrazines has been considered. In alcohols as solvents, alkyl arenecarboxylates form as a result of alcoholysis, while 2,5-disubstituted 1,3,4-thiadiazoles (1,3,4-oxadiazoles) form as minor products. In pyridine solutions, the major or sole products are those of reductive condensation,i.e., the correspondingN-substituted hydrazones of arenecarbaldehydes. 1,3,4-Thiadiazole or 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives are obtained in good yield when the reaction is carried out in a pyridine-alkanol mixture.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis of 1,3,4-thiaza- and 1,3,4-oxazaphosphol-2-lines based onN-phosphorylated (thio)ureas

The reactions ofO-phenyl chloromethylisothiocyanatothioxophosphonate andO-phenyl chloromethylisocyanatophosphonate with trimethylsilyldiethylamine lead to the formation of 1,3,4-thiazaphosphol-2-ine and 1,3,4-oxazaphosphol-2-ine, respectively. Phosphorylation ofN-methyl-N-phenyl-N,N-bis(trimethylsilyl)urea withO-phenyl chloromethylchlorophos phonate gives 1,3,4-diazaphospholidin-2-one.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 7, pp. 1857–1859, July, 1996.     

Cyclic condensations of 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds

The reactions of 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds are described. 2,4-Pentanedione gave 2-thiocyanato-4,6-dimethylpyrimidine while diethylmalonate and ethyl acetoacetate yielded 5-hydroxy-7H-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-7-one and 7-methyl-5H-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one, respectively. The structure of the latter compound was confirmed by a synthesis of the alternative isomeric structure (5-methyl-7H-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrirnidin-7-one) from 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole and α-bromocrotonic acid.     

Reactivity of 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles. Nucleophilic behaviour of some 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles: Model compounds

The ambident nucleophilic behaviour of some 2-amino-5-H-1,3,4-thiadiazoles in alkylation, acylation and nitrosation reaction has been verified. The structures assigned to the 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles ( 1a-i ) and to the Δ²-1,3,4-thiadiazolines ( 2a-e ) agree with the spectral data.     

Saturated heterocycles,part 161 [1]. Synthesis of 2-hydroxycycloalkyl-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazoles, 1,3,4-thiadiazoles and 1,2,4-triazoles

A number of 2-hydroxycycloalkyl-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole, 1,3,4-thiadiazole and 1,2,4-triazole derivatives were prepared by different methods from cis- and trans-2-hydroxy-1-cycloalkanecarbohydrazides and their isocyanate or isothiocyanate adducts. In contrast with the related ring-closure reactions of 2-aminobenzoylhydrazides, no condensed skeleton heterocycles were formed in this case.     

Synthesis of heterocycles. Part VII Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of some 7H-s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazine and s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole derivatives

The cyclization of 4-amino-5-aryl-3-cyanomethylthio-1,2,4-triazoles II in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid yields 7H-6-amino-s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazines III . Cyclization of 4-amino-5-aryl-1,2,4-tria-zole-3-thiones I with phenacyl chloride yields 7H-3-aryl-6-phenyl-s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazines IV . Similarly, compounds I condensed with cyanogen bromide, phenyl isothiocyanate and carbon disulfide to give the corresponding cyclized products 6-amino-3-aryl-s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles V , 3-aryl-6-phenyl-amino-s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles VI and 3-aryl-striazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazol-6(5H)thiones VII , respectively. Also in the presence of phosphoryl chloride, compounds I underwent cyclization with monocarbo-xylic acids and oxalic acid to 3,6-diaryl-s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole VIII and 6,6′-bis(3-aryl-s-triazolo-[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles) IX . The above compounds were screened for their antimicrobial activity.     

Synthesis of 1,3,4-thiadiazoles containing the trifluoromethyl group

The following compounds have been synthesized: 2-Amino-5-trifluoromethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole; N-(5-trifluoromethyl - 1,3,4-thiadizol-2-yl)benzenesulfonamide; N¹-(5-trifluoromethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)sulfanilamide, its N⁴-acetyl, N⁴-succinyl, and N⁴-pathalyl derivatives; o - m - and p-trifluoromethylbenzoylthiosemicarbazide, their corresponding 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles, their corresponding sulfanilamides, their N⁴-acetyl, N⁴-succinyl and N⁴-phthalyl derivatives; 3-o-trifluoromethylphenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiol. Preliminary in-vitro assays show that synthesized sulfanilamide derivatives have antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus.     

Acylation of 5-amino-3H-1,3,4-thiadiazolin-2-one

Acylation of 5-amino-3H-1,3,4-thiadiazolin-2-one (2) was undertaken selectively at either the 3-NH position or at 5-amino group depending on reaction conditions. The 3-NH is highly acidic and acylation takes place with acid anhydrides at this position in high yields in the presence of pyridine or triethylamine. The diacylation of both the 3-position and the 5-amino group was only possible via the 5-amino-3-acyl-1,3,4-thiadiazolin-2-one intermediates 4 . Under neutral conditions, acylation only occurs at the 5-amino group with acyl chlorides forming 5-acylamino-3H-1,3,4-thiadiazolin-2-ones 5 . 5-Acetylamino-3H-1,3,4-thiadiazolin-2-one can also be synthesized by the thermal transformation of 5-amino-3-acetyl-1,3,4-thiadi-azolin-2-one in acetic acid.     

Tetrazoles: XLVI. 3H-1,3,4-Benzo- and Pyrido[6,7-b][1,3,4]triazepines from 5-Aryltetrazoles. Synthesis and Chemical Properties

2,5-Disubstituted 3H-1,3,4-benzotriazepines were synthesized by heating of N-imidoyltetrazoles in toluene at 110°C. Alkylation of these compounds, as well as of 3H-pyrido[6,7-b][1,3,4]triazepines with alkyl halides in THF in the presence of potassium tert-butoxide gave the corresponding 1-alkyl derivatives in good yield and with high regioselectivity.     

Synthesis of 5-aroylamino-3H-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiones and their tautomerism

5-Aroylamino-3H-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiones 2 have been synthesized by acylation of 5-amino-3H-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thione 1 . 5-Aroylamino-3H-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiones can exist in two tautomeric forms — a thiol form and a thione form. On the basis of the ¹³C nmr spectra and additional experimental information, it has been established that the thione form is the stable form in which these compounds exist.     

Synthesis and characterization of 1,3,4-oxadiazole-containing polyazomethines

Novel 1,3,4-oxadiazole-containing polyazomethines were synthesized by the polycondensation of diamines, 2,5-bis (m-aminophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (BMAO) and 2,5-bis (p-aminophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (BPAO), with aromatic dialdehydes, isophthalaldehyde and terephthalaldehyde, in m-cresol at 20°C. These polymers were yellow to orange in color and had reduced viscosities up to 1.13 dL/g and electric conductivity as high as 10^?11?10^?12 S cm^?1. All the polyazomethines were insoluble in common organic solvents but dissolved in concentrated sulfuric acid. Thermogravimetry showed that thermal degradation started at around 400°C in air and nitrogen atmospheres. Doping with iodine markedly increased the conductivity and produced the black-colored semiconductive polyazomethines with a maximum conductivity of the order of 10^?6 S cm^?1. Electronic spectra of the undoped polymers indicated a large bathochromic shift of the absorption maxima due to C?N bonds of the monomer diamines (285 nm for BMAO and 315 nm for BPAO). This suggests that π-electrons of the polymers are extensively delocalized along the main chain.     

Synthesis and characterization of mono- and bicyclic heterocyclic derivatives containing 1,2,4-triazole, 1,3,4-thia-, and -oxadiazole rings

A series of new N- and S-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives were synthesized. 5-Pyridin-3-yl-3-[2-(5-thioxo-4,5-dihydro-l,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)ethyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2(3H)-thione and 5-[(5-(pyridin-3-yl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylthio)methyl]-N-phenyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amine were formed by cyclization of 3-(5-pyridin-3-yl-2-thioxo-1,3,4-oxadiazol-3(2H)-ylpropanimidohydrazide and 2-[(5-pyridin-3-yl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)thio]thiosemicarbazide with CS₂ and H₂SO₄. On the other hand, a number of new bicyclic 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole derivatives were synthesized. 6-Pyridin-3-ylbis[1,2,4]‐triazolo[3,4-b:4′,3′-d][1,3,4]thiadiazole-3(2H)-thione was synthesized by reaction of 6-(hydrazino)-3-pyridine-3-yl[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole with CS₂/KOH/EtOH. The structures of the newly synthesized compounds were elucidated by the spectral and analytical data IR, Mass, and ¹H NMR spectra. Correspondence: Adel A.-H.

One-potCuAAC synthesis of (1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)methyl-1,3,4/1,2,4-oxadiazoles starting from available chloromethyl-1,3,4/1,2,4-oxadiazoles

The one-pot CuAAC synthesis of (1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)methyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole and (1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)methyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives via three-component reaction of consequent nucleophilic substitution of chlorine, with azide, and its further “click” reaction, with alkynes, in the presence of CuI was studied. The utility of newly synthesized 2-(azidomethyl)-1,3,4/1,2,4-oxadiazoles and chloromethyl-1,3,4/1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives was explored, and their limitations were determined. Novel 5-([4-aryl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl]methyl)-3-(aryl)-1,2,4-oxadiazoles, 2-([4-aryl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl]methyl)-5-(aryl)-1,3,4-oxadiazoles were obtained in good yields.     

Synthesis and debenzoylation products of two perbenzoylated 2-substituted 5-D-galactosyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles

The synthesis of 2-(p-chlorophenyl)-5-[1′,2′,3′,4′,5′-penta-O-benzoyl-D-galactopentitol-1-yl]-1,3,4-oxadiazole is described. Its debenzoylation gave an equilibrium mixture of the 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivative without protection of the hydroxyl group and the N-benzoyl-D-galactono-1,4-lactonehydrazone. A similar equilibrium was observed by debenzoylation of 2-phenyl-5-[1′,2′,3′,4′,5′-penta-O-benzoyl-D-galactopentitol-1-yl]-1,3,4-oxadiazole. The ¹H, ¹³C nmr and ms spectra of these compounds are presented.

A series of N′-(5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-yl) actylthioureas have been synthesized from p-chlorophenoxyacetic acid, and then substituted 2-amino-5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles reacting with acylthiocyanoester, which are derived from the second step, are used. Their structures are confirmed by Infrared, ¹H nuclear magnetic resonance, and elementary analysis. From biological testing, it is found that some of these compounds have good fungicidal activity.

Synthesis and biological activities of benzothiazole derivatives bearing a 1,3,4-thiadiazole moiety

A series of benzothiazole derivatives bearing a 1,3,4-thiadiazole moiety were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral activities. The bioassay results indicated that most of target compounds showed good antiviral activities against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and antibacterial activities against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) and Ralstonia solanacearum (Rs). Especially, the anti-Xoo effect of title compounds 5k (N-(5-methoxybenzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-2-((5-(2-tolyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)thio)acetamide) and the anti-Rs effect of title compounds 5a (N-(5-nitrobenzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-2-((5-(4-(trifluorom ethyl)phenyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)thio)acetmide) respectively reached 52.4% and 71.6% at 100?µg/mL, which are superior to that of bismerthiazol (32.0% and 52.3%). In addition, the protective and inactivation activities of title compound 5i (N-(5-methoxybenzo [d]thiazol-2-yl)-2-((5-(4-nitrophenyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)thio)acetamide) against TMV were 79.5% and 88.3%, respectively, which are better than that of ningnanmycin (76.4% and 86.8%). The above research showed that benzothiazole derivatives bearing a 1,3,4-thiadiazole moiety may be used as potential molecular templates in searching for highly-efficient antiviral and antibacterial agents.
