Synthesis and antiviral activity of some new bis-1,3-thiazole derivatives.

Treatment of 3-phenyl-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one derivative 1 with phenylisothiocyanate in DMF, in the presence of potassium hydroxide, at room temperature gave the non-isolable potassium salt 2. The in-situ reaction of 2 with differently substituted N-aryl hydrazonoyl chlorides 3, 7a-d and 14a-d afforded the corresponding 2-(pyrazolyl)thiazolylimino-5-(thiadiazolylidene)thiazolidin-4-one derivatives 6, 10a-d and 17a-d, respectively. Reaction of 2 with further α-haloketones yielded the 4-(pyrazolyl)thiazolylimino-bis-thiazolidine derivatives 22, 25 and 26. Single crystal X-ray analysis was used in structure elucidation of the products. The in-vitro antiviral screening against four viruses (Poliovirus, Influenza A (H1N1) virus, Hepatitis B virus and Hepatitis C virus) for the obtained compounds was examined. Structure activity relationship (SAR) was also studied. The goal of the work was achieved in discovering a very active compound 10a as anti HCV agent (EC50 0.56 μM).
