Riyadh %J Molecules %D 2011 %I MDPI AG %R 10.3390/molecules16108244 %X Microwave-assisted synthesis of some novel compounds, namely, 3-(2-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)-6-aryl-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles 5a,b was accomplished via bromination of 2-methyl-3-[4-(arylideneamino)-5-mercapto-4H-[1,2,4]triazol-3-yl]-1H-indoles 3a,b. Also, new [1,3,4]thiadiazoles 12a,b, [1,2,4]triazoles 15a,b and [1,3,4]oxadiazoles 19a,b, with indole moieties, were prepared by cyclization of 1-[(2-methyl-1H-indole)-3-carbonyl]thiosemicarbazides 8a,b under microwave irradiation using different reaction conditions. Moreover, reaction of acid hydrazide 7 with ethyl 2-(N-phenylhydrazono)-3-oxobutanoate (20) gave the respective phenylhydrazonopyrazole derivative 21 under the reaction conditions employed. The structures of the synthesized compounds were assigned based on elemental analyses and spectral data (IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, MS). The antifungal and antibacterial activities of the new products were also evaluated. %K [1 %K 2 %K 4]triazolo[3 %K 4-b][1 %K 3 %K 4]thiadiazoles %K diazoles %K Schiff¡¯s bases %K microwave irradiation and antimicrobial activity %U http://www.mdpi.com/1420-3049/16/10/8244
