A couple of new N-3-chloropropyl-benzothiazole-2-amine derivatives (Compound B1, B2) and N-benzothiazol-2-yl)-2-chloroacetamide derivatives (Compound A1, A2) were the focus of the current investigation. In the presence of TEA, 2-aminobenzothiazole and 2-chloroacetyl chloride were combined to form the intermediate molecule N-benzothiazol-2-yl)-2- chloroacetamide, also known as Intermediate X1. Through the reaction of Intermediate X1 with sulfanilic acid and sulphanilamide, the final compounds (Compounds A1 and A2) were produced. 2-Aminobenzothiazole and 1-Bromo-3-chloropropane were combined with TEA to form the intermediate chemical N-3-chloropropyl-benzothiazole-2-amine, also known as Intermediate Y1. Intermediate Y1 was reactated with sulfanilic acid and sulphanilamide to produce the final chemicals (Compound B1, B2). The spectroscopic approach was used to characterize the synthesized compounds, and TLC and melting point were used to evaluate the purity of all the compounds. The anti-microbial activity of the produced compounds was tested. According to the findings, most compounds exhibited a smaller or nonexistent zone of inhibition against bacteria in comparison to the gold standard medication, Norfloxacin. Out of all the compounds that were produced, at concentrations. In comparison to the gold standard antibiotic Norfloxacin, compound A1 had a smaller zone of inhibition (ZOI) against gram-positive Bacillus subtilis (22 mm, 28 mm, and 33 mm diameter, respectively), measuring 38 mm, 42 mm, and 48 mm diameter. The compound A2 exhibited the largest zone of inhibition (21 mm, 26 mm, and 33 mm diameter) when tested against the gram-positive Bacillus subtilis bacteria at concentrations. However, this was still lower than the standard drug Norfloxacin, which had ZOIs of 38 mm, 42 mm, and 48 mm diameter, respectively. Compound B1 exhibited the largest zone of inhibition (20 mm, 24 mm, and 26 mm diameter) when tested against Bacillus subtilis (a gram-positive bacterium) at concentrations. However, this was lower than the standard drug Norfloxacin (ZOI-38 mm, 42 mm, and 48 mm diameter). Compound B1 had the largest zone of inhibition (22 mm, 25 mm, and 28 mm diameter) out of all the synthesized compounds tested with a diameter of 26 mm, 32 mm, and 36 mm, respectively), but not as effective as the gold standard antibiotic Norfloxacin against gram- inhibition (ZOI) against Escherichia coli (a gram-negative bacteria) at concentrations of 100 µg/ml, 200 µg/ml, and 300 µg/ml, with respective diameters of 20 mm, 22 mm, and 25 mm respectively
Heterocyclic compounds, also called heterocycle, it is major class of an organic chemical components identify by the fact some or all the molecules in that atoms are joined in rings containing at least one or more molecule an atom other than carbon. Some hetero atoms such as nitrogen, oxygen and sulphur1. Heterocyclic system is used in building blocks for new materials for chemical and biological properties. There are number of compounds such as vitamins, hormones, essential amino acids, alkaloids, dyes, and various types of drugs that have heterocyclic ring systems2. There was various number of basic heterocyclic compounds such as pyrrole, pyrrolidine, pyridine, pyrimidine, furan, having important application in drug design3.
Medicinal chemistry plays a vital role in drug design and discovery. Medicinal chemistry mainly focus on new drug discovery, design and development. Medicinal chemists also focus on finding the basis of an disease with the help of biochemistry. After the identification of the chemical structure of the targets, it becomes easy to design new drugs for the treatment of disease4. 2-aminobenzothiazoles is an important heterocyclic compound shows the biological activity.
There is the major problem that we are facing in the content of infectious disease is the spreading of the antimicrobial resistance. The studies of new series of 2-aminobenzothiazole derivatives for infectious disease such as the antimicrobial activities. This the heterocyclic nuclei such as 2-aminobenzothiazole hence they are the basically two main rings are present like benzene ring and thiazole ring5. Thiazole are the five membered ring and one benzene ring also be attached with amine group named as 2-amino benzothiazole because amine group as 2- position in thiazole ring. In the present study on 2-amino benzothiazole derivatives and they are fused heterocyclic compound. 2-aminobenzothiazole derivatives are the reported for some diversified activity to seen such as antimalarial, anthelmintic, antitumor, anticonvulsant activities show these biological activities6.
These are highly reactive compound and its utilized-on reaction intermediate to synthesized different derivatives. They are studied as a central muscle relaxant and they have been further studied to found a diverse reactive and broad spectrum of biological activities.
