“…The bacterial ureases can also be inhibited by the five‐membered heterocycles like 1,2,4 triazoles and 1,3,4 oxadiazoles [30–35] . It is documented that some of the 1,3,4 oxadiazoles derived Mannich bases decrease inflammation and prevent fungal growth and they also possess analgesic, antiulcer, antibacterial, anti‐HIV, anti‐convulsant, anti‐tuberculosis and anticancer activities and as inhibitors of various other enzymes and are used in many other applications [36–39] . The broad therapeutic applications of oxadiazoles and Mannich bases have prompted us to synthesize Mannich bases of 1,3,4‐oxadiazole‐2‐thiones and evaluate their antiurease activity.…”
