“…In the area of medicinal chemistry, five-membered heterocyclic compounds, especially heterocycles having more than one hetero atom, have shown a diverse range of biological activities. Among them, thiazolidinone, which bears a sulfur atom at 1-position, a nitrogen atom at 3-position and a carbonyl group at 2-, 4-, or 5-positions, has received a great deal of attention over the years since it is a significant and versatile moiety that has occupied a prominent position in medicinal chemistry [15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24]. Derivatives containing a thiazolidinone moiety have demonstrated a wide range of pharmacological properties, including anti-HIV, anti-malarial, anti-inflammatory and hypoglycaemic activities [25,26,27].…”
