Tetrazoles represent a class of five-membered heterocyclic compounds with polynitrogen electron-rich planar structural features. This special structure makes tetrazole derivatives useful drugs, explosives, and other functional materials with a wide range of applications in many fields of medicine, agriculture, material science, etc. Based on our research works on azoles and other references in ...

Several substituted-benzimidazole 3-(4-{5-Amino-6-fluoro-1-[2'-(1H-tetrazole-5-yl)-biphenyl-4ylmethyl]-1H-benzoimidazol-2-yl}-phenyl) -2-(substituted)thiazolidin-4-one were synthesized by condensation of various steps with various substituted aryl aldehydes reaction. Elemental analysis, IR, 1HNMR and mass spectral data confirmed the structure of the newly synthesized compounds. Synthesized and ...

Bio-orthogonal chemistry has been widely used for conjugation of polymer molecules to proteins. Here, we demonstrate the conjugation of polyethylene glycol (PEG) to bovine beta-lactoglobulin (BLG) by photo-induced cyclo-addition of tetrazole-appended PEG and allyl-modified BLG. During the course of the investigation, a significant side-reaction was found to occur for the conjugation of PEG-tetr...

N-C bonded (non-bridged) 5-(1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)tetrazoles were synthesized by the Cu(I)-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar azide-alkyne cycloaddition click reaction using 5-azido-N-(propan-2-ylidene)-1H-tetrazole (1). For example, the click reaction of 1 in the presence of CuSO(4)5 H(2)O and Na ascorbate at 65-70 degrees C for 48 h in CH(3)CN/H(2)O co-solvent was found to be limited to only terminal alkynes...

We report a tetrazole-based, photoclick chemistry that can be employed to selectively functionalize an alkene genetically encoded in a protein inside E. coli cells. The reaction involved the treatment of E. coli cells with cell-permeable tetrazoles followed by a brief photo irradiation at 302 nm (4 min) and an overnight incubation at 4 degrees C. This in vivo alkene functionalization procedure ...

Ethyl (3-methyl-7-substituted-2-oxoquinoxalin-1(2H)-yl) acetates 2a-c are prepared by the condensation of ethyl chloroacetate with 3-methyl-7-substituted quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones 1a-c. The reaction of 2a-c with hydrazine hydrate furnished 2-(3-methyl-7-substituted-2-oxoquinoxalin-1(2H)-yl) acetohydrazides 3a-c, which on cyclisation with substituted aromatic carboxylic acids in the presence of phos...
