Synthetic Methods and Pharmacological Potential of Different Oxazine Analogs

Abstract

: Oxazine analog is a vital class of heterocyclic compounds and has attracted synthetic interest owing to their wide range of biological activities. Oxazine analogs are valuable in medicinal organic chemistry and exhibit different varieties of biological activities such as antimicrobial, anticancer, antimalarial, antitubercular, sedative, anticonvulsant, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, etc. Oxazine can be derived from benzene by appropriate substitution of carbon atoms of the ring by nitrogen and oxygen atoms. Nowadays, the development of drug resistance is a key problem, and to defeat this problem, it is crucial to synthesize novel compounds. So, novel oxazine analogs may play a crucial role to overcome these problems. Oxazine analogs are prepared by reaction of chalcone derivatives with thiourea in the presence of alcohol and sodium hydroxide. The present aims of this review are to give an outline of some different synthetic methods and different types of biological activities of oxazine analogs. We hope that this review will be motivating for researchers concerned with oxazine analogs.
