Synthesis, antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of substituted pyrazoles, isoxazoles, pyrimidine and thioxopyrimidine derivatives

Abstract

A new class of heterocycles, substituted pyrazoles, isoxazoles, pyrimidines, thioxopyrimidines were prepared from Michael adducts, 2-(1,2-diaroylethyl)malononitrile and 2-(1,2-diarylsulfonylethyl)malononitrile by cyclocondensation with appropriate nucleophiles. The lead compounds were screened for the antimicrobial and antioxidant activities.
