Synthesis of some series of 1,3-thiazolidin-4-ones and indoles incorporating furoxan moiety starting with anethole isolated from star anise oil

摘要

Some series of 1,3-thiazolidin-4-ones and indoles incorporating furoxan moiety were synthesized from anethole, a main component of star anise oil. The structure of these compounds and the intermediates was examined by elemental and spectral data. Ten compounds were screened against some bacteria and fungi.
