Taking into consideration the biological activity of the only natural products containing a 1,2,4-oxadiazole ring in their structure (quisqualic acid and phidianidines A and B), the natural product analogs 1-(4-(3-tert-butyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl)phenyl)pyrrolidine-2,5-dione (4) and 1-(4-(3-tert-butyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl)phenyl)-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione (7) were synthesized starting from 4-(3-tert-...

Drugs used to treat various disorders target GABA A receptors. To develop alpha subunit selective compounds, we synthesized 5-(4-piperidyl)-3-isoxazolol (4-PIOL) derivatives. The 3-isoxazolol moiety was substituted by 1,3,5-oxadiazol-2-one, 1,3,5-oxadiazol-2-thione, and substituted 1,2,4-triazol-3-ol heterocycles with modifications to the basic piperidine substituent as well as substituents wit...

In the title compound, C(20)H(17)N(7)O(2)S (systematic name: 3-(4-methyl-phen-yl)-4-{3-[(phenyl-amino)-meth-yl]-7H-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thia-diazin-6-yl}-1,2,3-oxadiazol-3-ium-5-olate), the 3,6-dihydro-2H-1,3,4-thia-diazine ring adopts a half-boat conformation. The oxadiazol-3-ium ring makes dihedral angles of 57.99 (6) and 54.48 (6)° with the phenyl and benzene rings, respectively, whil...

Decomposition mechanisms, activation barriers, Arrhenius parameters, and reaction kinetics of the novel explosive compounds, 3,4-bis(4-nitro-1,2,5-oxadiazol-3-yl)-1,2,5-oxadiazole (BNFF-1), and 3-(4-amino-1,2,5-oxadiazol-3-yl)-4-(4-nitro-1,2,5-oxadiazol-3-yl)-1,2,5-oxadiazole (ANFF-1) were explored by means of density functional theory with a range of functionals combined with variational trans...

The reaction of carboxylic acids with Mitsunobu reagents, prepared by the reaction of triphenylphosphine with dialkyl azodicarboxylates, followed by heating at 180-190 °C under solvent-free conditions, afforded 3-alkyl-5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-ones. This facile and convenient method readily provides the 1,3,4-oxadiazolone ring systems in good yields using a one-pot protocol starting from th...

The complete molecule of the compound, C(6)H(4)N(8)O(3), is generated by a crystallographic twofold rotation axis that runs through the central ring. The flanking ring is twisted by 20.2 (1)° with respect to the central ring. One of the amino H atoms forms an intra-molecular N-H⋯N hydrogen bond; adjacent mol-ecules are linked by N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds forming a chain running along [10-2].

A number of new functionalized 4,5-dihydropyrazolo[1,5- a ]thieno[3,2- e ]pyrimidine derivatives were obtained by the domino reaction thienylhydrazonyl chlorides with (1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl)acetonitrile. In organic synthesis, much attention has been recently paid to tandem and reactions. The advantage such reactions concerns high selectivity, ease performance, reduction intermediate steps, atom ...

We have successfully obtained 1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-one bioisoteres of Am580 or Tazarotene-like retinoids. In particular compound 4 displays an EC(50) of 26nM on RAR-beta.

A series of new clubbed aryl oxadiazole-1,2,4-triazine derivatives (6a-l) were designed and synthesized using appropriate chemical routes. The structures to have the required structural elements for any compounds be potential anticonvulsant. Preliminary screening anticonvulsant activity was performed maximal electroshock seizure (MES), subcutaneous pentylenetetrazole-induced (scPTZ) behavioral ...
