- Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Oxadiazole Clubbed Thiadiazole Derivatives as Antimicrobial Agents
-
A series of 1,3,4-oxadiazole clubbed 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives were synthesized and assessed in vitro for their activity as antimicrobial agents. The target compounds 2-(5-(substituted aryl)-1, 3, 4-oxadiazol-2-ylthio)-N-(5-(substituted aryl)-1, 3, 4-thiadiazol-2-yl) acetamides (5a-5s) were synthesized using a basic condensation reaction between 5-(substituted aryl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiol and 2-chloro-N-(5-(substituted aryl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)acetamide in presence of K2CO3 as a scavenging agent and acetone as reaction solvent. The titled compounds synthesized here, exhibited excellent to moderate antimicrobial activity against a broad panel of antibacterial strains of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and fungi.

- Antibacterial and Antiviral Activities of 1,3,4-Oxadiazole Thioether 4H-Chromen-4-one Derivatives
-
Various 1,3,4-oxadiazole thioether 4H-chromen-4-one derivatives were conceived. The title compounds demonstrated striking inhibitory effects againstXac,Psa, andXoo. EC50data exhibited that A8 (19.7 μg/mL) had better antibacterial activity againstXoothan myricetin, BT, and TC. Simultaneously, the mechanism of action of A8 had been verified by SEM. The results of anti-tobacco mosaic virus indicated that A9 had the bestin vivoantiviral effect compared with ningnanmycin. From the data of MST, it could be seen that A9 (0.003 ± 0.001 μmol/L) exhibited a strong binding capacity, which was far superior to ningnanmycin (2.726 ± 1.301 μmol/L). This study shows that the 1,3,4-oxadiazole thioether 4H-chromen-4-one derivatives may become agricultural drugs with great potential.

- Development of Novel (+)-Nootkatone Thioethers Containing 1,3,4-Oxadiazole/Thiadiazole Moieties as Insecticide Candidates against Three Species of Insect Pests
-
To improve the insecticidal activity of (+)-nootkatone, a series of 42 (+)-nootkatone thioethers containing 1,3,4-oxadiazole/thiadiazole moieties were prepared to evaluate their insecticidal activities against Mythimna separata Walker, Myzus persicae Sulzer, and Plutella xylostella Linnaeus. Insecticidal evaluation revealed that most of the title derivatives exhibited more potent insecticidal activities than the precursor (+)-nootkatone after the introduction of 1,3,4-oxadiazole/thiadiazole on (+)-nootkatone. Among all of the (+)-nootkatone derivatives, compound 8c (1 mg/mL) exhibited the best growth inhibitory (GI) activity against M. separata with a final corrected mortality rate (CMR) of 71.4%, which was 1.54- and 1.43-fold that of (+)-nootkatone and toosendanin, respectively; 8c also displayed the most potent aphicidal activity against M. persicae with an LD50 value of 0.030 μg/larvae, which was closer to that of the commercial insecticidal etoxazole (0.026 μg/larvae); and 8s showed the best larvicidal activity against P. xylostella with an LC50 value of 0.27 mg/mL, which was 3.37-fold that of toosendanin and slightly higher than that of etoxazole (0.28 mg/mL). Furthermore, the control efficacy of 8s against P. xylostella in the pot experiments under greenhouse conditions was better than that of etoxazole. Structure-activity relationships (SARs) revealed that in most cases, the introduction of 1,3,4-oxadiazole/thiadiazole containing halophenyl groups at the C-13 position of (+)-nootkatone could obtain more active derivatives against M. separata, M. persicae, and P. xylostella than those containing other groups. In addition, toxicity assays indicated that these (+)-nootkatone derivatives had good selectivity to insects over nontarget organisms (normal mammalian NRK-52E cells and C. idella and N. denticulata fries) with relatively low toxicity. Therefore, the above results indicate that these (+)-nootkatone derivatives could be further explored as new lead compounds for the development of potential eco-friendly pesticides.

- Ultrasound-assisted, low-solvent and acid/base-free synthesis of 5-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiols as potent antimicrobial and antioxidant agents
-
Abstract: One of the goals of green chemistry is to use environmentally friendly solvents or remove and reduce the volume of harmful spent solvents. In this study, a novel process for the synthesis of 5-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiol derivatives was proposed via ultrasound-assisted reaction of aryl hydrazides with CS2 (1:1 molar ratio) in some drops of DMF in the absence of basic or acidic catalysts. They were produced in good to excellent yields under easy workup and purification conditions. In order to prove the usefulness of the prepared compounds, their antioxidant, antibacterial, and antifungal potentials were screened by DPPH free radical scavenging, serial twofold microdilution and streak plate methods. Acceptable to significant inhibitory activities were observed with synthesized heterocycles. The results showed that 5-(4-fluorophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiol (3c) is an broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent. Many of them displayed remarkable antioxidant properties comparable to standard controls (ascorbic acid and α-tocopherol). Synthesized 1,3,4-oxadiazoles are also potent candidates to treat cancer, Parkinson, inflammatory, and diabetes diseases. Graphic Abstract: Eighteen 5-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiol derivatives as potent antimicrobial and antioxidant agents were prepared via a new, efficient and green procedure.[Figure not available: see fulltext.].

- Efficient formation of C–S bond using heterocyclic thiones and arynes
-
Phenylthio heterocyclic compounds are widely used because of their diverse biological activities and medicinal prospects. Here, a facile method was reported. An arylation of 1,3,4-oxa(thia)diazol-2-thiones reacting with arynes to build C(aryl)-S bonds in the presence of CsF had good yields and excellent selectivity. The reaction was completed in short time without using expensive reagents and catalysts. Present reaction system is an efficient procedure to process phenylthio heterocyclic compounds and reveals a sustainable method and better application prospects in future organic synthesis.

- Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of new challenging thalidomide analogs as potential anticancer immunomodulatory agents
-
Thalidomide and its analogs are immunomodulatory drugs that inhibit the production of certain inflammatory mediators associated with cancer. In the present work, a new series of thalidomide analogs was designed and synthesized to obtain new effective antitumor immunomodulatory agents. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxic activities against a panel of four cancer cell lines (HepG-2, HCT-116, PC3 and MCF-7). Compounds 33h, 33i, 42f and 42h showed strong potencies against all tested cell lines with IC50 values ranging from 14.63 to 49.90 μM comparable to that of thalidomide (IC50 values ranging from 32.12 to 76.91 μM). The most active compounds were further evaluated for their in vitro immunomodulatory activities via estimation of human tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), human caspase-8 (CASP8), human vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and nuclear factor kappa-B P65 (NF-κB P65) in HCT-116 cells. Thalidomide was used as a positive control. Compounds 33h and 42f showed a significant reduction in TNF-α. Furthermore, compounds 33i and 42f exhibited significant elevation in CASP8 levels. Compounds 33i and 42f inhibited VEGF. In addition, compound 42f showed significant decrease in levels of NF-κB p65. Moreover, apoptosis and cell cycle tests of the most active compound 42f, were performed. The results indicated that compound 42f significantly induce apoptosis in HCT-116 cells and arrest cell cycle at the G2/M phase.

- Synthesis and anticancer evaluation of new lipophilic 1,2,4 and 1,3,4-oxadiazoles
-
A series of1,2,4- and 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their anticancer activity. Halogenated 1,2,4-oxadiazoles were obtained from benzonitrile and coupled either lipophilic amines or with aminoalcohols. Lipophilic 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives were obtained through the Mannich reactions between 5-(aryl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiol and alkylated or acylated amines. The in vitro cytotoxic effects were evaluated against 4T1– mammary carcinoma and CT26 – colon cancer cells. The best results were obtained for the 1,3,4-oxadiazole coupled to alkylated piperazine with 10–14 carbon chain moiety, with IC50 values ranging from 1.6 to 3.55μΜ for the 4T1 cell line, and from 1.6 to 3.9 μM for the CT26.WT cell line, and selectivity index up to 19. The most potent compounds were investigated with AnnexinV and PI staining as indicative of apoptosis induction.

-
An electrophile, 2-bromo-N-(5-methyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)acetamide, was synthesized by the reaction of 5-methyl-1,3-thiazol-2-amine and bromoacetyl bromide in an aqueous medium. In a parallel scheme, a series of (un)substituted benzoic acids was converted sequentially into respective esters, acid hydrazides, and then into 1,3,4-oxadiazole heterocyclic cores. The electrophile was coupled with the aforementioned 1,3,4-oxadiazoles to obtain the targeted bi-heterocyles. Structural analysis of the synthesized compounds was performed by IR, EI-MS, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR. The enzyme inhibition study of these molecules was carried out against four enzymes, namely, acetylcholinesterase, butyrylcholinesterase, α-glucosidase, and urease. The interactions of these compounds with respective enzymes were recognized by their in silico study. Moreover, their cytotoxicity was also determined to find out their utility as possible therapeutic agents.

- Synthesis and Biological Activity of Anthranilic Diamide Derivatives Incorporating 1,3,4-oxadiazole or Nitrogen-containing Saturated Heterocyclic Moieties
-
A series of novel anthranilic diamide derivatives incorporating 1,3,4-oxadiazole or nitrogen-containing saturated heterocyclic moieties were synthesized, characterized, and evaluated for bacteriostatic activity against three phytopathogenic bacteria Xanthomonas oryzae pv. Oryzae (Xoo), Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. Citri (Xac), Ralstonia solanacearum (R. solanacearum). The preliminary biological results indicated that most compounds exhibit bacteriostatic activity against three phytopathogenic bacteria. Among these compounds, compounds 6g, 6f, and 6i displayed better antibacterial activity. In the test with concentration of 200 μg/mL, antibacterial activity of compound 6i and 6j was 96%. In particular, the bacteriostatic activity displayed by compound 6h against Xoo is similar to the one displayed by commercial drug bismerthiazol.

Owing to valuable biological activities of 1,3,4-oxadiazole, sulfamoyl and piperidine functionalities, some new 1-(4-{[(5-substituted-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl) thio]methyl}benzene sulfonyl)-4-methylpiperidine (6a-o) derivatives have been introduced. The target molecules were synthesized from different aralkyl/aryl carboxylic acids, 1a-o, through a series of steps. First the compounds, 1a-o, were converted to heterocyclic 1,3,4-oxadiazole nucleophiles, 4a-o. Second an electrophile as 1-(4-bromomethylbenzenesulfonyl)-4-methylpiperidine (5) was synthesized from 4-methylpiperidine. Finally the target compounds, 6a-o, were prepared by reacting 4a-o with 5 in DMF and LiH. The final compounds were structurally elucidated by spectral data of IR, 1H-NMR and EI-MS. All the compounds were screened for their antibacterial evaluation and found to exhibit valuable results.

An electrophile, 1-(4-(bromomethylbenzenesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperidine, was synthesized by the reaction of 2-methylpiperidine (2-pipecoline) and 4-bromomethylbenzenesulfonyl chloride in a weak basic medium under pH control. A series of nucleophiles, 5-aryl/aralkyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-thiols, were synthesized from corresponding carboxylic acids in three steps. The title molecules were synthesized by coupling the electrophile to nucleophiles in an aprotic medium using LiH as an activator. The structures of all synthesized compounds were corroborated through IR, 1H NMR, and EI-MS techniques. All the compounds were screened for their pharmacological behavior, particularly, antibacterial and enzyme inhibitory activities. Notably efficient results were obtained against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial strains. Regarding enzyme inhibition, compounds were efficient against acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase.

- Synthesis and biological evaluation of 1,2,4-triazole-3-thione and 1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thione as antimycobacterial agents
-
Resistance among dormant mycobacteria leading to multidrug-resistant and extremely drug-resistant tuberculosis is one of the major threats. Hence, a series of 1,2,4-triazole-3-thione and 1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thione derivatives (4a–5c) have been synthesized and screened for their antitubercular activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra (H37Ra). The triazolethiones 4b and 4v showed high antitubercular activity (both MIC and IC50) against the dormant H37Ra by in vitro and ex vivo. They were shown to have more specificity toward mycobacteria than other Gram-negative and Gram-positive pathogenic bacteria. The cytotoxicity was almost insignificant up to 100?μg/ml against THP-1, A549, and PANC-1 human cancer cell lines, and solubility was high in aqueous solution, indicating the potential of developing these compounds further as novel therapeutics against tuberculosis infection.

- Development of 3,5-Dinitrobenzylsulfanyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles and Thiadiazoles as Selective Antitubercular Agents Active Against Replicating and Nonreplicating Mycobacterium tuberculosis
-
Herein, we report the discovery and structure-activity relationships of 5-substituted-2-[(3,5-dinitrobenzyl)sulfanyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazoles and 1,3,4-thiadiazoles as a new class of antituberculosis agents. The majority of these compounds exhibited outstanding in vitro activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis CNCTC My 331/88 and six multidrug-resistant clinically isolated strains of M. tuberculosis, with minimum inhibitory concentration values as low as 0.03 μM (0.011-0.026 μg/mL). The investigated compounds had a highly selective antimycobacterial effect because they showed no activity against the other bacteria or fungi tested in this study. Furthermore, the investigated compounds exhibited low in vitro toxicities in four proliferating mammalian cell lines and in isolated primary human hepatocytes. Several in vitro genotoxicity assays indicated that the selected compounds have no mutagenic activity. The oxadiazole and thiadiazole derivatives with the most favorable activity/toxicity profiles also showed potency comparable to that of rifampicin against the nonreplicating streptomycin-starved M. tuberculosis 18b-Lux strain, and therefore, these derivatives, are of particular interest.

- Rational design, synthesis and biological evaluation of 1,3,4-oxadiazole pyrimidine derivatives as novel pyruvate dehydrogenase complex E1 inhibitors
-
On the basis of previous study on 2-methylpyrimidine-4-ylamine derivatives I, further synthetic optimization was done to find potent PDHc-E1 inhibitors with antibacterial activity. Three series of novel pyrimidine derivatives 6, 11 and 14 were designed and synthesized as potential Escherichia coli PDHc-E1 inhibitors by introducing 1,3,4-oxadiazole-thioether, 2,4-disubstituted-1,3-thiazole or 1,2,4-triazol-4-amine-thioether moiety into lead structure I, respectively. Most of 6, 11 and 14 exhibited good inhibitory activity against E. coli PHDc-E1 (IC50 0.97-19.21 μM) and obvious inhibitory activity against cyanobacteria (EC50 0.83-9.86 μM). Their inhibitory activities were much higher than that of lead structure I. 11 showed more potent inhibitory activity against both E. coli PDHc-E1 (IC50 50 50 = 0.97 μM) and cyanobacteria (EC50 = 0.83 μM). The possible interactions of the important residues of PDHc-E1 with title compounds were studied by molecular docking, site-directed mutagenesis, and enzymatic assays. The results indicated that 11d had more potent inhibitory activity than that of 14d or I due to its 1,3,4-oxadiazole moiety with more binding position and stronger interaction with Lsy392 and His106 at active site of E. coli PDHc-E1.

Aseries of biphenyl-2-carbonitile clubbed 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives have been synthesized by the condensation of biphenyl-2-carbonitrile with various substituted 2-mercapto-5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles. Structures of the newly synthesized compounds IVa IVh were characterized using FTIR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, mass spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. All the compounds were screened for their antimicrobial properties against a broad spectrum of bacteria and fungi. It was very clearly noted from SAR study that the derivatives bearing electron-withdrawing functional groups (-NO2, -Cl) were more promising than the derivatives with electron-donating group (-CH3) as antimicrobial agents.

Thymidine phosphorylase (TP) inhibitors have attracted great attention due to their ability to suppress the tumors formation. In our ongoing research, a series of 1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thione (1-12) has been synthesized under simple reaction conditions in good to excellent yields (86-98%) and their TP inhibition potential has also been evaluated. The majority of synthesized compounds showed moderate thymidine phosphorylase inhibitory activity with IC50 values ranging from 38.24 ± 1.28 to 258.43 ± 0.43 μM, and 7-deazaxanthine (7DX) was used as a reference compound (IC50 38.68 ± 4.42). The TP activity was very much dependent on the C-5 substituents; among this series the compound 6 bearing 4-hydroxyphenyl group was found to be the most active with IC50 38.24 ± 1.28 μM. Molecular docking studies revealed their binding mode.

- Synthesis and evaluation of novel azoles as potent antifungal agents
-
Using a rational approach to the design of antifungal agents, a series of azole agents with 1,3,4-oxadiazole side chains were designed and synthesized. The results of preliminary in vitro antifungal tests with eight human pathogenic compounds showed that all of the title compounds exhibited excellent activities against all of the tested fungi except Aspergillus fumigatus. Compounds 11e and 11f were found to be the most effective, with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 0.0039 μg/mL, followed by voriconazole, which has a MIC of 0.0625 μg/mL. The 1,3,4-oxadiazole side chain is not the major contributor but plays a role in eliciting the observed antifungal activity.

- Synthesis and spectral characterization of Zn(II) microsphere series for antimicrobial application
-
Microsphere series have been synthesized by reacting zinc(II) acetate dihydrate with Schiff bases derived from 2-hydrazino-5-[substituted phenyl]-1,3,4-thiadiazole/oxadiazole/triazole with salicylaldehyde. Elemental analysis suggests that the complexes have 1:2 and 1:1 stoichiometry of the type [Zn(L)2(H2O)2] and [Zn(L′)(H 2O)2]; LH = Schiff bases derived from 2-hydrazino-5- [substituted phenyl]-1,3,4-thia/oxadiazole with salicylaldehyde; L′H 2 = Schiff bases derived from 3-(substituted phenyl)-4-amino-5- hydrazino-1,2,4-triazole and salicylaldehyde and were characterized by elemental analyses, IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectral data. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that synthesized materials have microsphere like structure and there EDX analysis comparably matches with elemental analysis. For the antimicrobial application Schiff bases and their zinc(II) complexes were screened for four bacteria e.g. Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhi, Streptococcus pyogenes and four fungi e.g. Cyrtomium falcatum, Aspergillus niger, Fusarium oxysporium and Curvularia pallescence by the reported method. Schiff base and Zn(II) compounds showed significant antimicrobial activities. However, activities increase upon chelation. Thermal analysis (TGA) data of compound (10) showed its stability up to 300 °C.

-
A series of 2-mercapto-5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives have been condensed with different phenyl acetamide derivatives possessing fluorine atom at meta position; resulting in the formation of 2-(5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2- ylthio)-N-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)acetamide (5a-j) and N-(4-chloro-3- fluorophenyl)-2-(5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylthio)acetamide (5k-t) derivatives. The antimicrobial properties of the synthesized entities (5a-t) measured as their MIC (Minimum Inhibitory Concentration) values were evaluated by using the broth dilution method against Gram-positive bacteria (S. aureus and E. faecalis), Gram-negative bacteria (E. coli and P. aeruginosa) and fungi (C. albicans and A. niger). The results of antimicrobial activities (in μg/ml) revealed the fact that the compounds 5a and g bearing a maximum number of fluorine atoms showed the highest potency among the synthesized compounds against the broad panel of bacterial and fungal strains. The presence of fluorine atom at the meta position in the phenyl ring of final derivatives (5a-t) brought about an enhancement of their antimicrobial properties to a notable extent.

- Structure-based optimization of oxadiazole-based GSK-3 inhibitors
-
Inhibition of glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) induces neuroprotective effects, e.g. decreases β-amyloid production and reduces tau hyperphosphorylation, which are both associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). The two isoforms of GSK-3 in mammalians are GSK-3α and β, which share 98% homology in their catalytic domains. We investigated GSK-3 inhibitors based on 2 different scaffolds in order to elucidate the demands of the ATP-binding pocket [1]. Particularly, the oxadiazole scaffold provided potent and selective GSK-3 inhibitors. For example, the most potent inhibitor of the present series, the acetamide 26d, is characterized by an IC50 of 2 nM for GSK-3α and 17 nM for GSK-3β. In addition, the benzodioxane 8g showed up to 27-fold selectivity for GSK-3α over GSK-3β, with an IC 50 of 35 nM for GSK-3α. Two GSK-3 inhibitors were further profiled for efficacy and toxicity in the wild-type (wt) zebrafish embryo assay to evaluate simultaneously permeability and safety.

- Novel 1,3,4-oxadiazole thioether derivatives targeting thymidylate synthase as dual anticancer/antimicrobial agents
-
A series of novel 1,3,4-oxadiazole thioether derivatives (compounds 9-44) were designed and synthesized as potential inhibitors of thymidylate synthase (TS) and as anticancer agents. The in vitro anticancer activities of these compounds were evaluated against three cancer cell lines by the MTT method. Among all the designed compounds, compound 18 bearing a nitro substituent exhibited more potent in vitro anticancer activities with IC50 values of 0.7 ± 0.2, 30.0 ± 1.2, 18.3 ± 1.4 μM, respectively, which was superior to the positive control. In the further study, it was identified as the most potent inhibitor against two kinds of TS protein (for human TS and Escherichia coli TS, IC50 values: 0.62 and 0.47 μM, respectively) in the TS inhibition assay in vitro and the most potent antibacterial agents with MIC (minimum inhibitory concentrations) of 1.56-3.13 μg/mL against the tested four bacterial strains. Molecular docking and 3D-QSAR study supported that compound 18 can be selected as dual antitumor/antibacterial candidate in the future study.

- Synthesis, characterization and pharmacological evaluation of n-substituted derivatives of 5-(4-nitrophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2yl-2-sulphanyl acetamide
-
A series of new N-substituted 5-(4-nitrophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-yl-2- sulphanyl acetamides was synthesized and enzyme inhibiting activity was screened for all these chemical entities. Structural characterization of all these compounds was made by IR, EI-MS and 1H NMR. All derivatives demonstrated different extent of activity for lipoxygenase (LOX), acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE). Compounds 6j exhibited excellent lipoxygenase inhibitory potential but against acetylcholinesterase the inhibitory potential is not appreciable and it is inactive against butyrylcholinesterase. Similarly compound 6e have good inhibitory potential against lipoxygenase with IC50 value 50.41 ± 0.12 ?M while for acetylcholinesterase IC50 value is 174.21 ± 0.11 ?M and 6e does not show any inhibitory potential for butyrylcholinesterase. Compound 6o showed good inhibition against acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase but for lipoxygenase its inhibitory activity is the least.

- THE ACIDITIES AND THE TAUTOMERIC STRUCTURE OF 5-ARYL-2-MERCAPTO-1,3,4-OXADIAZOLES
-
The acidity constants of a series of substituted 5-phenyl-2-mercapto-1,3,4-oxadiazoles were determined by potentiometric and spectrophotometric methods in 80percent (vol.) ethanol-water at 25 deg C.The data obtained by the two methods are in good agreement.The pKa values correlate with the ?*XC6H4 constants of the substituted phenyl group (p = -0.985, r = 0.936), however, a better correlation of the pKa data with the Hammett substituent constants ?X (p = -0.983, r = 0.959) was obtained.These linear correlations exclude the possibility of the presence of the thiol tautomer 1 in eqiulibrium with the thioamide tautomer 2 and indicate that the ionization of the compounds takes place in the form of the thioamide tautomer 2.According to the results of the HMO calculations, the thioamide form 2 is more stable than the thiol tautomer 1.A satisfactory correlation between the observed pKa values and the difference between the ?-electronic energies (ΔE?) of the thioamide tautomer and of the common resonance-stabilized anion was obtained, thus supporting the assigned tautomeric structure 2 for the series under study.
