摘要

The synthesis of a novel series of substituted 5-(aminomethylene)thiazolidine-2,4-diones was achieved using a wide range of heterocyclic models derived from eight drug-like molecules. The primary aim of this study was to combine medicinally known, biologically active molecules bearing a 2A degrees amine functionality, such as terbinafine, fluoxetine, atomoxetine, cetirizine, risperidone, aripiprazole, ziprasidone, and clopidogrel, with a thiazolidinedione ring via an amino-methylene linker. By targeting this synergistic approach to compounds with skeletal, functional, and stereochemical diversity, we have developed a simple synthetic concept to enrich the thiazolidinedione collection with various biological activities. The biological activities of the newly synthesized 5-(aminomethylene)thiazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives were explored. All compounds were found to have antibacterial activity, with compounds bearing pyridine or piperazine moieties showing good to excellent antibacterial activity. Compounds with piperazine moieties were also found to show good antifungal activity, whereas none of the synthesized compounds showed high cytotoxic activity.
