ABSTRACT
A new green protocol was developed for the S-alkylation of 2-mercapto-1,3,4-oxadiazole by the reaction of 5-substituted-2-mercapto-1,3,4-oxadiazole with propargyl bromide in sodium bicarbonate in water. The newly synthesized 5-[(substitutedphenoxy)methyl]-2-[(prop-2-yn-1-yl)sulfanyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazole when reacted with azidomethyl coumarins underwent regioselective reaction yielding 4-(((4-((5-((substitutedphenoxy)methyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)sulfanylmethyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)methyl)-6-methyl)-2H-chromene-2-one or 1-((4-((5-((substitutedphenoxy)methyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)sulfanylmethy)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl-)methyl)-3H-benzo[f]chromene-3-one. Structures of the newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by spectral and analytical data. The compounds were screened for their in-vitro antioxidant property.
