moiety. Representative compounds of the synthesized series were tested and evaluated as antioxidants. Two of the tested compounds (pyrazole and thiophene derivatives) showed antioxidant activity nearly equal to that of ascorbic acid.Pyrazole derivatives are both important synthetic intermediates and compounds with interesting biological and pharmacological activities [1,2]. They are useful as starting materials for the synthesis of several polysubstituted fused pyrazoles [2,3]. For instance, 5-aminopyrazoles have been extensively used as precursors in the preparation of other fused heterocyclic systems like pyrazolotriazinones, pyrazolotriazepinones, and pyrazolopyrimidinones [2, 3]. We have recently reviewed the methods for preparation and the chemical reactivity of 5-amino-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamide as a building block for the synthesis of polyfunctionalized heterocyclic compounds with pharmacological interest [4].Pyrazolopyrimidinones, being purine analogs, are of considerable chemical and pharmacological importance. Literature survey reveals that they have antibacterial [5,6], antiproliferative [7, 8], CNS modulating [9], antiviral [10], antifungal [11], anticancer [12] and anti-inflammatory [13] activities. These molecules have shown affinity towards adenosine receptors [14] and 5HT-6 and CRF-1 [15] receptors.Further, it has been found that substitution of the pyrazole 1-NH proton of the pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine ring system with other bioactive moieties leads to interesting pharmacological properties probably by increasing the π-stacking [16][17][18][19][20][21]. In view of the above-mentioned facts and in continuation of an ongoing program aimed at finding new structural leads with potential chemotherapeutic activities [22][23][24], we report herein the synthesis and antioxidant activity of some novel structure hybrids incorporating the pyrazolo[3,4-d]-pyrimidin-4-one moiety joined with the thiazole, tetrazole, thiophene, chromene, pyridine or pyrazole ring systems through different linkages. This combination was suggested as a means of discovering a new lead structure that would have a significant antioxidant activity.
