Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Some Heterocyclic Compounds from Salicylic Acid Hydrazide

On the other hand, direct cyclization of 2‐hydroxy benzohydrazide 2 with one carbon cyclizing agent gave a new derivative of 1,3,4‐oxadiazole 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 . Heating of hydrazide hydrazone 3 with thioglycolic acid in pyridine gave thiazolidinone 12 . When 2‐hydroxy benzohydrazide 2 reacted with aliphatic carboxylic acids such as formic acid or acetic acid, it gave the corresponding N‐formyl or N‐acetyl derivatives 6 . Subsequent cyclization of 6 using phosphorous pentasulphide in pyridine gave 1,3,4‐thiadiazoles 13 . Cyclization of 2‐hydroxy benzohydrazide with ethyl acetoacetate gives pyrazolone derivative 14 .

Two bicyclic dinuclear complexes generated from 3,3′‐[1,3,4‐thiadiazole‐2,5‐diyldi(thiomethylene)]dibenzoic acid (L) and dimethylformamide (DMF): [Cu(L)(DMF)]2 and [Zn(L)(DMF)]2

A new 1,3,4‐thiadiazole bridging ligand, namely 3,3′‐[1,3,4‐thiadiazole‐2,5‐diyldi(thiomethylene)]dibenzoic acid (L), has been used to create the novel isomorphous complexes bis{μ‐3,3′‐[1,3,4‐thiadiazole‐2,5‐diyldi(thiomethylene)]dibenzoato}bis[(N,N‐dimethylformamide)copper(II)], [Cu₂(C₁₈H₁₂N₂O₄S₃)₂(C₃H₇NO)₂], (I), and bis{μ‐3,3′‐[1,3,4‐thiadiazole‐2,5‐diyldi(thiomethylene)]dibenzoato}bis[(N,N‐dimethylformamide)zinc(II)], [Zn₂(C₁₈H₁₂N₂O₄S₃)₂(C₃H₇NO)₂], (II). Both exist as centrosymmetric bicyclic dimers constructed through the syn–syn bidentate bridging mode of the carboxylate groups. The two rings share a metal–metal bond and each of the metal atoms possesses a square‐pyramidal geometry capped by the dimethylformamide molecule. The 1,3,4‐thiadiazole rings play a critical role in the formation of a π–π stacking system that expands the dimensionality of the structure from zero to one. The thermogravimetric analysis of (I) indicates decomposition of the coordinated ligands on heating. Compared with the fluorescence of L in the solid state, the fluorescence intensity of (II) is relatively enhanced with a slight redshift, while that of (I) is quenched.
