Synthesis of novel seco-acyclo-N-diazolyl-thione nucleosides analogous derived from acetic acid: characterization, complex formation with ions Pb(II), Hg(II) and antibacterial activity

ABSTRACT: Three diazoles namely 5-methyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole -2(3H)-thione, 5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-thione and 4-amino-5-methyl-2H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol were synthesized from acetic acid or ethyl acetate. Seco-acyclo-N-nucleoside analogous was synthesized by condensation of 1,3-benzylidine-glyceryl-2-tosylate with the three diazoles. Structural proof was based upon IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR spectroscopy and MS measurements. The tendency to form complex between 1,3,4-oxadiazole and 1,3,4-thiadiazoles and Pb(II) and Hg(II) ions was achieved, and their structures were assigned by observing some changes in physical properties such as, MP, coloration, Rf (TLC), IR and UV spectroscopy. Most compounds were tested in vitro against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and showed variable activity. Hg2+ complexes of oxadiazole and thiadiazole derivatives exhibited appreciable antibacterial effect at lower MIC, compatible to the reference vancomycin. Similarly, oxadiazole-nucleoside exhibited high effect on Gram-positive bacteria.
