A novel series of analogues based on 5-(1-(4-chloro-3-methoxyphenyl)piperidin-4-yl)-4-phenyl-2H-1,2,4-triazole-3(4H)-thione core have been synthesized and their potential as antibacterial, antifungal and antitubercular agents was examined. The structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies of these derivatives 5 (a-k) clearly indicate the vital role of lipophilicity as a major factor in enhancing the biological activity of these compounds. Among the compounds screened, 5a, 5c, 5d, 5j and 5k displayed significant activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv strain.

A modified synthetic approach to the synthesis of heterocyclic food mutagens, 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PHIP) and 2-amino-1,6-dimethylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (DMIP) is reported. This route highlights an optimized palladium catalysed Buchwald cross-coupling of 2-halo-1-methyl-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine with benzophenoneimine followed by acidic hydrolysis to yield compound 7. Using finely tailored conditions, Suzuki cross-coupling reactions with highly efficient catalytic systems were performed as the final step on 8 to introduce the aryl group and methyl group on the heterocyclic core.
