Recently there has been increased interest in high nitrogen content “green” energetic materials which are designed to produce relatively non-toxic decomposition products as part of a push to decrease the environmental impact of energetic materials through all phases of their existence. With the use of a T-Jump/Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometer (T-Jump/TOFMS) capable of high heating rates (up to ...

Eleven oxytocin analogues substituted in position 4, 5 or 9 by tetrazole analogues of amino acids were prepared using solid-phase peptide synthesis method and tested for rat uterotonic in vitro and pressor activities, as well as for their affinity to human oxytocin receptor. The tetrazolic group has been used as a bioisosteric substitution of carboxylic, ester or amide groups in structure-activ...

O-Perbenzoylated 5-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)tetrazole was reacted with N-benzyl carboximidoyl chlorides to give the corresponding 4-benzyl-3-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)-5-substituted-1,2,4-triazoles. Removal of the O-benzoyl and N-benzyl protecting groups by base catalysed transesterification and catalytic hydrogenation, respectively, furnished a series of 3-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)-5-substituted-1,2,4-triazol...

Azoles are generally fungistatic, and resistance to fluconazole is emerging in several fungal pathogens. In an attempt to find novel azole antifungal agents with improved activity, a series of tetrazole ring bearing acylhydrazone derivatives were synthesized and screened for their in vitro antifungal activity. The mechanism of their antifungal activity was assessed by studying their effect on t...

In the current study, a magnetic inorganic–organic nanohybrid material (HPA/TPI-Fe3O4) was produced and used as an efficient, highly recyclable and eco-friendly catalyst for the one-pot and multicomponent synthesis of 3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-amine, diazepine-tetrazole and benzodiazepine-2-carboxamide derivatives with high yields and in a short range of time (20–35 min)...

The Pd-catalyzed N-arylation method for the synthesis of eighteen N,1-diaryl-1H-tetrazol-5-amine derivatives is reported. By running reactions at 35 °C, compounds were isolated as single isomers since undesired Dimroth rearrangement was completely suppressed. Furthermore, N,1-diaryl-1H-tetrazol-5-amines rationalized by conducting comprehensive experiments and NMR analysis well density functiona...

We report here the first study of the protonated, neutral form of tetrazoles as anion binding functional groups. Our studies reveal them to be capable of binding anions with extremely high potency in polar solutions. In studying carboxylic acid-containing congeners, we find a remarkable discrepancy: a strictly analogous acid-containing host binds anions > or = 50,000-fold more weakly than the t...
