New S-alkylated 1,2,4-triazoles incorporating diphenyl sulfone moieties with potential antibacterial activity

摘要

Alkylation of the 5-{4-[(4-bromophenyl)sulfonyl]phenyl}-4-(3/4-methylphenyl)- 2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiones 3a,b with various alkylation agents, i.e., ethyl bromide, phenacyl bromide and ethyl chloroacetate, afforded the S-substituted 1,2,4-triazoles 4-6a,b. The structures of these new compounds were elucidated by elemental analysis and IR, UV, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and MS spectroscopy. The newly synthesized products were tested for their antibacterial effects.
