2,2'-(4,4'(Butane-1,4-diyl/hexane-1,6-diyl)bis(3-methyl-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4- triazole-4,1-diyl)) diacetohydrazides 3a,b were obtained via the formation of diethyl 2,2'-(4,4'(butane-1,4-diyl/hexane-1,6-diyl)bis(3-methyl-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazole-4,1- diyl))diacetates 2a,b, obtained starting from di-[3(methyl-2-yl-methyl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-[1,2,4]-triazole-5-one-4yl]-n-alkanes 1a,b in two steps. The synthesis of the compounds 7a,b–9a,b incorporating the 1,3,4-thiadiazole, and 10a,b–11a,b with a 1,2,4-triazole-thiol nucleus as the second heterocycle, was performed by the acidic or basic treatment of compounds 4a,b–6a,b which were obtained from the reaction of 3a,b with several isothiocyanates. Newly synthesized compounds were screened for antimicrobial activities and their antioxidant properties by the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging method. Compounds 4a,b, 5a,b, and 6a,b were found to possess good antioxidant properties. Almost all compounds have significant antimicrobial activities.

A series of symmetric bis-1,2,3-triazole compounds 2–5(a–f) were synthesized as potential antioxidant agents via click chemistry. Their structures were confirmed by 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR. All of the synthesized compounds were subjected to antioxidant and antimicrobial assays. The antioxidant activity of these compounds (AChE inhibition, DPPH and SOD activities) was evaluated. Compound 2f was found to show the highest AChE inhibition activity of all compounds, while compound 3b showed a strong inhibitory effect on DPPH radical and compound 2a was the most effective of all compounds for SOD activity. All synthesized compounds were found to possess moderate antibacterial activity against the bacteria E. coli and Y.pseudotuberculosis.

In this study, the synthesis of metal-free and metallophthalocyanines containing four 4-[2-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethyl]-5-methyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one substituents at the peripheral positions were reported. The structures of compounds were characterized using IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, mass spectroscopies, and UV-Vis. Electrochemistry of the complexes were studied with voltammetric and in situ spectroelectrochemical measurements in different electrolytic systems. MPcs having redox inactive metal centers (H+, Zn+2, Cu+2, and Ni+2) just illustrated similar Pc-based electron transfer reactions. Due to the different effective nuclear charge of the ions in the core of Pc ring, small potential shifts and reversibility differences were observed between the redox processes of these complexes. MPcs having redox-active metal centers (Co+2 and TiO+2) gave metal-based electron transfers in addition to Pc-based processes. Electrolyte type of the measurement system significantly influenced oxidation behaviors of CoPc due to the coordination of polar coordinating solvent molecules to the oxidized CoIII center of CoPc. Spectra and color of the electrogenerated MPc species were determined with in situ spectroelectrochemical measurements.
