Synthesis of New of 4-Thiazolidinone and Thiazole Derivatives Containing Coumarin Moiety with Antimicrobial Activity

Abstract

Synthesizing hybrid molecules is one of the best manners to achieve novel promising agents. Consequently, series of new thiazoles having coumarin nucleus were synthesized from 3-acetylcoumarin thiosemicarbazones. Cyclization of thiosemicarbazone derivatives with ethyl 2-chloroacetate, 1-chloropropan-2-one and 2-bromo-1-phenylethanone afforded the corresponding 4-thiazolidinones, 4-methylthiazoles and 4-phenylthiazoles, respectively. The expected antimicrobial proprieties for the synthesized thiosemicarbazone and thiazole derivatives were investigated. The thiosemicarbazones and thiazolidin-4-ones showed moderate activities against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.
