Synthesis, Type II Diabetes Inhibitory Activity, and Antimicrobial Tests of Benzothiazole Derivatives Bridged with Indenedione by Methylenehydrazone

Resumo

Benzothiazolyl hydrazones are synthesized and tested as hypoglycemic and antimicrobial agents. Condensation of 2-acyl-(1H)-indene-1,3(2H)-diones with 2-hydrazinylbenzo[d]thiazole/2-hydrazinyl-6-substitutedbenzo[d]thiazoles gives the corresponding hydrazones in high yields. Preliminary biological assay of the products reveals significant antidiabetic and antimicrobial activities. The α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibition assay is used for determination of Type II diabetes inhibitory activity.
