“…Several 1,2,4-triazole derivatives show anti-inflammatory [18], vasodilatory [19] and psychotropic properties [20]. Recently, our interest in the synthesis of various substituted heterocyclic systems, which could be adapted for the preparation of small libraries, has been the subject of several publications from our laboratory [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31]. During our investigation, we have found that acid hydrazides can be used as useful intermediates leading to the formation of several heterocycles of potential biological activity such as 1,2,4triazoles, 1,3,4-oxadiazoles and 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazines [23,32].…”
