“…Thioureas, isothiouronium compounds and their derivatives constitute an important class of compounds which exhibit a wide range of antibacterial, fungicidal, herbicidal, antiviral, and plant growth regulatory activities, and play important roles in many chemical and biological processes [3,4,5,6,7], but also act as potential anticancer and anti-HIV drugs [8,9,10,11]. The activity of isothiouronium groups may be due to the enhanced acidity of the NH moieties, thereby functioning as a better binder than the thiourea group [12,13,14,15,16,17]. Several synthetic isothiouronium compounds were synthesized to obtain more potent and less toxic therapeutic agents [18].…”
