1,3-Thiazolidin-4-one analogues are important because of its versatile biological actions. In the present study, benzohydrazide (1) on condensation with different aromatic aldehydes (2a-g) in presence of catalytic amount of concentrated hydrochloric acid in absolute ethanol yield N'-[(E)(substitutedphenyl)methylidene]benzohydrazide (3a-g), which on cyclisation with 2sulfanylpropanoic acid in dr...

A series of novel N-[2-(substitutedphenyl)-5-methyl-4-oxo-1,3-thiazolidin-3-yl]benzamides (4a-g) were synthesized and structurally confirmed by elemental analysis, IR, H NMR and MS spectral data. Further, the antiviral screening of N-[2-(substitutedphenyl)-5-methyl-4-oxo-1,3-thiazolidin-3-yl]benzamides (4a-g) against a broad panel of DNA and RNA viral strains indicated that N-[2-(4-chlorophenyl...
