Isatin (indole 2,3-dione) and its 5-chloro and 5-bromo derivatives have been reacted with 3-(4'-pyridyl)-4-amino-5-mercapto-4-(H)-1,2,4-triazole to form Schiff bases and the N-Mannich bases of these compounds were synthesised by reacting them with formaldehyde and several secondary amines. Their chemical structures have been confirmed by means of their IR, 1H-NMR data and by elemental analysis. Investigation of antimicrobial activity of compounds was done by agar dilution method against 27 pathogenic bacteria, 8 pathogenic fungi and anti-HIV activity against replication of HIV-1 (III B) in MT-4 cells. Among the compounds tested 1-(piperidinomethyl) 5-bromo 3-[3'-(4"-pyridyl)-5'-mercapto-4'-(H)-1',2',4'-triazol 4'-yl]imino isatin showed the most favourable antimicrobial activity.

Combretastatin A-4 (CA-4) is one of the most potent antimitotic and antiangiogenic agents of natural origin. It has displayed potent antitumor effect in a wide variety of preclinical tumor models. Till date various CA-4 analogs have been synthesized and evaluated for anticancer activity. This review is an attempt to compile the medicinal chemistry of various synthesized CA-4 analogs.
