The syntheses of a number of 2-substituted 4-trifluoromethylimidazoles and 3-substituted 5-(4-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazoles are described. The trifluoromethylimidazoles were prepared from 3,3-dibromo-1,1,1-trifluoroacetone after hydrolysis with aqueous sodium acetate solution and condensation with an aldehyde in the presence of ammonia. Basic hydrolysis of the trifluoromethyl group was found to provide a facile method for the synthesis of imidazole-4-carboxylic acids. In the imidazole series a 2-aryl substituent and a free imino group were required for xanthine oxidase inhibitory activity. The triazoles were obtained through the reaction of an aroylhydrazine and an imino ether followed by thermal ring closure of the intermediate acylamidrazone. As in the imidazole series, a free imino group is an absolute requirement for in vitro activity. Additional structure-activity relationships of these compounds are presented.

Triazoles substituted at the 3 and 5 positions having an optional substituent in the 1 position are provided. Methods of preparing the novel substituted triazoles are described. The substituted triazoles are useful as anti-gout and anti-hyperuricemic agen
