Synthesis, antimicrobial and anti-HIV activity of some novel benzenesulfonamides bearing 2,5-disubstituted-1,3,4-oxadiazole moiety

摘要

Twelve novel primary (4a-c, 5a-c) and secondary (4d-f, 5d-f) benzenesulfonamides bearing 2,5-disubstituted-1,3,4-oxadiazole moiety have successfully been prepared by direct chlorosulfonation of phenyl substitutent present on the 2-position of 5-mercapto-1,3,4-oxadiazoles 2a-c and their methylhio derivatives 3a-c using chlorosulfonic acid under anhydrous conditions. Structures of the synthesized compounds were established by their physical and spectral data. Some of the synthesized compounds have been screened in vitro for their antimicrobial and anti-HIV activity; the results were in accordance with SAR.
