A new method for the preparation of 5-acylidene and 5-imino substituted rhodanine derivatives and their antioxidant and antimicrobial activities
Versatile syntheses of 5-imino or 5-acylidene substituted 1,3-thiazolidin-4-one derivatives are reported from α-dioxothiazole systems and phosphoranes via Wittig reactions. Antimicrobial and antioxidant activity of the compounds were evaluated. 5-Carbonyl
