Abstract

The S-(5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl) O-alkyl carbonothioate (4-9) and the alkyl 2-((5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)thio) acetate (10-15) were synthesized by interaction of 5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiones with alkyl esters of chloroformic acid and chloroacetic acid. The yields of target compounds (7-9) obtained with isobutyl chloroformate were 69-73%, compounds (4-6) with propyl chloroformate - 74-79% and compounds (10-15) with alkyl esters of chloroacetic acid - 86-92%, respectively. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by IR, UV, 1H and 13C NMR spectra. The antibacterial and antifungal activities of these compounds were investigated. The results of in vitro antimicrobial activity tests showed that S-(5-phenyl(2-chlorophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl) O-propyl carbonothioate (4-5) and S-(5-phenyl(2-chlorophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl) O-isobutyl carbonothioate (7-8) exhibited weak, but selective antibacterial activity against gram-positive bacteria (Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus). At the same time, no activity was shown by compounds with two chlorine atoms in the aromatic ring (13-15) and alkyl 2-((5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl) thio) acetate (10-15).
