A study on ester thiosemicarbazones

Acta Pol Pharm. 1997 Jul-Aug;54(4):307-12.

Abstract

The cyclization of ester thiosemicarbazones to two different heterocycles was studied for some new thiosemicarbazones, and only the formation of 1,2,4-triazol-5-thiols was attributed to the regioselectivity of the ring closure reaction, due to a steric hindrance of bulky groups. Next, some of the new compounds were tested for their in vitro antimicrobial and antitumor activities.
