Article: Synthesis and biological evaluation of 2-amino-5-sulfanyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives as antidepressant, anxiolytics and anticonvulsant agents
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A new series of 2-amino-5-sulfanyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives has been synthesized. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by analytical and spectral methods. Compounds were screened for central nervous system activity. Compounds 1, 5, 7, 10, 14 exhibited significant antidepressant, anxiolytic and anticonvulsant activity in comparison to the reference drugs.

Article: 2-Amino-5-sulfanyl-1,3,4-thiadiazoles: a new series of selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors.
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A new series of cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors with 2-amino-5-sulfanyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole as the central scaffold unit has been synthesized. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by analytical and spectral methods. Compounds were screened for cyclooxygenase inhibitory activity by the colorimetric COX (ovine) inhibitor screening assay, anti-inflammatory activity by the carrageenean induced rat paw oedema test and analgesic activity by the tail flick method. Some compounds exhibited significant biological activity.Acta Pharmaceutica 58(3):317-26. · 0.91 Impact Factor
