Abstract
1, 3, 4-oxadiazole and its derivatives have significant anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial property. Their precise mechanism of action is not known but it is postulated that they act by inhibiting the biosynthesis of certain prostaglandins. 1, 3, 4-oxadiazoles are a class of heterocyclic compounds with wide variety of biological and pharmacological activities. They have been reported to possess analgesic, antimicrobial, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory properties. These compounds are also active against a number of other inflammatory conditions such as arthritis, gout etc. A wide variety of these compounds have been synthesized and some of them are under clinical trials. In this review article, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activity of the 1, 3, 4- oxadiazole shall be discussed.
期刊介绍:
Current Organic Synthesis publishes in-depth reviews, original research articles and letter/short communications on all areas of synthetic organic chemistry i.e. asymmetric synthesis, organometallic chemistry, novel synthetic approaches to complex organic molecules, carbohydrates, polymers, protein chemistry, DNA chemistry, supramolecular chemistry, molecular recognition and new synthetic methods in organic chemistry. The frontier reviews provide the current state of knowledge in these fields and are written by experts who are internationally known for their eminent research contributions. The journal is essential reading to all synthetic organic chemists. Current Organic Synthesis should prove to be of great interest to synthetic chemists in academia and industry who wish to keep abreast with recent developments in key fields of organic synthesis.
