ABSTRACT

1,3,4-Oxadiazoles form a biologically important group of compounds having activities like analgesic, anti-inflammatory, bactericidal, antifungal, anticonvulsant, psychotropic, plant growth regulating and mono amine oxidase inhibition. This research has focused on the incorporation of the oxadiazole moiety into isoniazid because of their versatile biological action, to get 2-aryl-5-(4-pyridyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole to explore the possibilities of some altered biological action. 1,3,4-Oxadiazole derivatives were synthesized by microwave-assisted synthesis and screened for their analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities. The synthesized compounds were characterized by melting point, thin layer chromatography, infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, etc. Almost all the synthesized compounds possessed good activity as compared to the standard.
