Abstract:Some novel derivatives of 2-(9<em>H</em>-Purin-6-ylsulfanyl)acetohydrazide were synthesized by reacting it with respective aldehydes in ethanol. The antithyroid effect of these compounds was ascertained <em>in vitro</em> by studying their complexation with iodine spectrophotometrically. <em>In vivo</em>, the hormonal as well as histological variations in male Wistar rats demonstrated significant antithyroid potential (p ≤ 0.05) of these compounds.
