Dodecanoyl thiosemicarbazide derivatives as useful synthons in the synthesis of 1,2,4-triazole, 1,3,4-thiadiazole, and 1,3-benzothiazole derivatives

ABSTRACT

A convenient synthesis of the dodecanoyl thiosemicarbazide derivatives 3a, b has been achieved from the reaction of 2-benzamido-3-arylacryloylhydrazides 1a, b and lauroyl isothiocyanate (2). The thiosemicarbazide derivative 3a is used as precursor for synthesis of 1,2,4-triazole, 1,3,4-thiadiazole, and 1,3-benzothiazole derivatives. The antimicrobial activity of some of the synthesized compounds was tested.
