Azomethine ylides were generated from Schiffs bases of S-allylcysteine methyl ester and their intramolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions were studied. These reactions led to the synthesis of thieno[3,4b]pyrrole derivatives in good yield.

Generation and cycloaddition of less- or non-stabilized azomethine ylides, or nitrile ylide equivalents, via unprecedented 1,4-stannatropy of N-(tributylstannylmethyl)thioamides were achieved. The reactions with dipolarophiles, such as electron-deficient alkenes and alkynes, afforded corresponding pyrrolidine and pyrrole derivatives effectively.

Three novel new compounds derived from antiparasitic precursors have been synthesized and tested for their antiamoebic and antigiardial activities. The condensation of 2-(2-methyl-5-1H-nitroimidazolyl)ethylamine (6) with 5-nitro-2-furylacrylic acid (7) gave 3-(5-nitrofuran-2-yl)-N-[2-(5-nitroimidazol-1-yl)ethyl]acrylamide (8). Condensation of 7 with 7-chloro-4-(piperazin-1-yl)quinoline (9) affo...

Wittig reaction has recently been applied also in the preparation of 5-nitrofuran derivatives of ethylene [1—5]. The quoted syntheses were accomplished starting either from 5-nitrofurfuryl halides which were converted into 5-nitrofurfurylidenephosphoranes and subsequent condensation of the latter with carbonyl compounds [1—4], or the intermediate phosphoranes were prepared from other furfuryl h...

A series of (5-nitrofuran-2-yl)-1, 3, 4-thiadiazole-2-yl derivatives 6a–6e have been synthesized and screened for in vitro anti-leishmanial activity against the promastigote form of L. major. The structure of Schiff bases were confirmed by 1H NMR, IR. Screening results indicate that all of the designed and synthesized final compounds (6a-6e) significantly reduced the viability of promastigotes ...

A method was developed for simultaneous qualitative and quantitative analysis of five metabolites of nitrofuran antibiotics, including 3-amino-2-oxazolidinone (AOZ), 5-morpholino-methyl-3-amino-2-oxazolidinone ( AMOZ ), semicarbazide ( SEM ), 1-aminohydantoin (AHD) and 3, 5-dinitrosalicylic acid hydrazide (DNSH) in aquatic products by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).
