Purpose: The triazole nucleus is an important part of the therapeutically interesting drug candidate as antimicrobial, analgesic, anticancer, anticonvulsant and anti-inflammatory agents. Methods: Therefore, in this study, twelve 4,5-disubstituted-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiols were synthesized by the reaction of substituted isothiocyanates and hydrazides using the common method of base catalysed intramolecular dehydrative cyclization of substituted thiosemicarbazides 3(a-f) and 4(a-f). The structures of these compounds were characterized by means of FT-IR, 1H-NMR, and elemental analysis data. All these compounds were screened for antibacterial, antioxidant, antitumor and cytotoxic activities. Results: Among these compounds: 5c, 5f and 6f were found active against gram positive cocci, the compounds 5a, 5b, 5d, 6a and 6f showed 85% free radical scavenging effect at 3 ppm when tested for antioxidant activity, 75% tumors inhibition was recorded using 5c, 5d and 6a and brine shrimps lethality assay declared 5a, 5b and 6d was 129.62 μg/ml, 161.577 μg/ml and 81.56 μg/ml respectively. Conclusion: Compounds carrying significant bioactivity can be further studied using animal models to establish their safety profile prior to initiating clinical trials.

5-Nitro-1,2,4-triazole-3-one:A Review of Recent Advances

The 3?Nitro?1,2,4?triazole?5?one(NTO)is a high energy density materials of keen interest for both commercial and scientific worlds owing to its reduced sensitivity,better thermal stability and high performances. It plays a significant role to replace the current energetic ingredients. In this review,we summarize various strategies involved in the synthesis of NTO as well as the existing approaches to tailor its particle morphology and sizes. The most prominent properties of NTO,such as insensitivity and performance,which are usually required to produce efficient formulations,have been concisely discussed. In addition,this overview reports on some newer forms of NTO including derivatives and co?crystals available in the literature,which can enhance the NTO features and extend its applications. The advantages and shortcomings of various NTO forms for specific and potential use are also highlighted together with the attempts made to overcome these issues. Therefore,efforts will certainly continue to improve characteristics and performances of NTO either by chemical modification or by co?crystallization in order to produce promising formulations for widespread applications in the near future.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of 5-(p-Tolyl)-4-[2-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)acetamido]-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione Ethyl Acetate Solvate

A novel compound 5-（p-tolyl）-4-[2-（2,4-dichlorophenoxy）acetamido]-1,2,4-tria zole- 3-thione 2a has been synthesized by the reaction of 5-（p-tolyl）-4-amino-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione 1 with 2-（2,4-dich/orophenoxy）acetyl ch/oride. Interestingly, the title compound 2 was obtained when 2a crystallizes from a mixed solution of petroleum ether and ethyl acetate, and it has been characterized by elemental analysis, IR, ^1H NMR spectra and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal belongs to the triclinic system, space group P1 with a = 9.780（5）, b = 10.876（6）, c = 11.615（6） /A, a = 104.822（7）, β= 94.105（6）, ）, = 94.305（6）°, V= 1185.7（11）/A3, Z = 2,μ = 0.397 mm^-1, Mr= 497.39, Dx= 1.393 g/cm^3, F（000） = 516, S = 1.097, the final R = 0.0730 and wR = 0.2133 for 4111 unique reflections （Rint = 0.0525） with 3212 observed ones. The dihedral angles made by the triazole ring with the methyl- and chloro-substituted benzene rings are 43.5（7） and 50.2（9）°, respectively. Some intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonds together with C-H…π interactions existing in the lattice stabilize the crystal structure.

Raman Spectra of 1,2,4-Triazole-3-carboxylate Solution

Raman spectra of 1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxylate (TC- anion) and its ring-deprotonated deriva- tive (dpTC2- dianion) in aqueous solutions were measured respectively. The density func- tional theory calculations were performed using MN15 functional and PCM solvent model to investigate their structures, as well as the vibrational frequencies and Raman intensi- ties. With the aid of the calculated spectra, all the observed Raman bands of dpTC2- were clearly assigned, with taking into account the deuteration shifts. Moreover, various protonic tautomers of TC- anion were compared in the present theoretical calculations, and 2H- tautomer was found more stable. The experimental Raman spectrum of TC- solution was roughly consistent with the calculated spectrum of the monomeric 2H-tautomer of TC-, but some splits existed for a few bands when compared to the calculated spectra, which might be contributed by the hydrogen-bonding dimers of TC-.

A simple and efficient procedure for the synthesis of optically active s-triazolothiadiazole derivatives

A series of novel s-triazolothiadiazoles 3a-h were prepared by condensation reaction of substituted amino triazoles 1a-b with N-phethaloyl-L-amino acids 2a-d in the presence of the phosphoroxy chloride （POC13） as an anhydrous reagent. The structure of all synthesized compounds was confirmed by IR, 1H NMR, arid 13C NMR spectroscopy.
