Thirty new pyrazoline derivatives were synthesized by cyclization of Mannich bases with thiosemicarbazides being substituted by different cyclic and aromatic amines. The structures of the compounds were elucidated by elemental analyses, UV, IR, 1H and 13C NMR and ESI-MS spectral data. The in vitro antiamoebic activity was evaluated against Entamoeba histolytica in comparison with metronidazole used as reference substance. Out of the 30 compounds screened for antiamoebic activity, 10 (5, 6, 15, 18, 25-30) were found to be better inhibitors of E. histolytica since they showed lesser IC50 values than metronidazole. The preliminary results indicated that the presence of 3-chloro or 3-bromo substituent on the phenyl ring at position 3 of the pyrazoline ring enhanced the antiamoebic activity as compared to unsubstituted phenyl ring. The study suggests that the preliminary activity of these compounds may further be explored for the development of new targets for amoebiasis.

The cyclization of chalcone with N-4 substituted thiosemicarbazides under basic condition led to the formation of new compounds, thiocarbamoyl bis-pyrazoline derivatives. The structure of the compounds were elucidated by UV, IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and ESI-MS spectral data and thermogravimetric analysis, and their purities were confirmed by elemental analyses. The antiamoebic activity of these complexes was evaluated by microdilution method against HM1:IMSS strain of Entamoeba histolytica and the results were compared with the standard drug, metronidazole. Structure-activity relationship shows that the compound with aromatic substituents at the thiocarbamoyl group was more active than those with the cyclic groups. However, it was clear from the IC50 values that the compounds 15 and 20 are more active and both showed a structural resemblance having an electron withdrawing groups attached to the phenyl ring. MTT assay showed that all the compounds are non-toxic to human kidney epithelial cell line.
Synthesis, spectral studies and in vitro antibacterial activity of steroidal thiosemicarbazone and their palladium (Pd (II)) complexes

We investigated the antibacterial activity of some new steroidal thiosemicarbazone and their Pd(II) metal complexes. Metal complexes were prepared from the reaction of steroidal thiosemicarbazone with [Pd(DMSO)2Cl2]. Coordination via
Synthesis and antiamoebic activity of 3,7-dimethyl-pyrazolo[3,4-e][1,2,4] triazin-4-yl thiosemicarbazide derivatives

A series of 3,7-dimethyl-pyrazolo[3,4-e][1,2,4]triazin-4-yl thiosemicarbazide derivatives 3-22 were prepared and evaluated in vitro against HM1:1MSS strain of Entamoeba histolytica, to identify the compounds for antiamoebic activity. They exhibited antiamoebic activity in the range (IC 50 = 0.81-7.31 μM). The results were compared to the activity of known drug metronidazole. It is inferred from the in vitro studies that the compounds 10, 11, 17 and 18 were found to be significantly better inhibitors of E. histolytica since IC50 values in the μM range elicited by these compounds are much lower than metronidazole. Besides, compounds 11 and 17 have shown the most promising antiamoebic activity (IC50 = 0.81 μM of 11, IC50 = 0.84 μM of 17 versus IC50 = 1.81 μM of metronidazole). The study suggests the possibility of developing triazine analogues as potential drug candidates for antiamoebic activity.
