ABSTRACT

 

1-(5-Mercapto-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)-2-(pyridine-2-ylamino)ethanone (3), has been synthesized from 2-(pyridine-2-ylamino)acetohydrazide (2). A yellow colored compound (2) was reacted with carbon disulfide and potassium hydroxide in absolute ethanol to obtain the 1-(5-mercapto-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)-2-(pyridine-2-ylamino)ethanone. Structures of the synthesized compounds were supported by means of IR, NMR, MS spectroscopic and elemental analysis. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antimicrobial activity and were expressed as the corresponding minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). A brown colored compound (3) with 90% yield has been successfully synthesized. This compound was found to have significant antimicrobial activity with MIC value ranging from 30.2 - 43.2 μg cm-3. The findings of the present study indicate that cyclization of hydrazide acid group of 2-(pyridine-2-ylamino)acetohydrazide (2) into 1,3,4-oxadiazole nucleus resulted in increased antimicrobial activity.

 

Keywords: 1,3,4-oxadiazoles compound; antimicrobial activity; hydrazide acid

 

ABSTRAK

 

Sebatian (3), 1-(5-merkapto-1,3,4-oksadiazol-2-yl)-2-(piridine-2-ylamino)etanon telah disintesis daripada sebatian (2), 2-(pridin-2-ilamino)asetohidrazida. Sebatian (2) yang berwarna kuning telah ditindakbalaskan dengan karbon disulfida dan kalium hidroksida dalam etanol kontang untuk menghasilkan sebatian 1-(5-merkapto-1,3,4-oksadiazol-2-yl)-2-(piridine-2-ylamino)etanon. Struktur sebatian yang disintesis disokong oleh cerapan daripada instrumen IR, NMR, spektroskopi jisim dan analisis unsur. Sebatian yang disintesis telah dinilai untuk aktiviti antimikrob dan dinyatakan sebagai nilai penghantaran kepekatan penghalangan minima (MIC). Sebatian (3) yang berwarna perang dengan peratusan hasil 90% telah berjaya disintesis. Sebatian ini didapati menunjukkan aktiviti antimikrob yang signifikan dengan nilai MIC dalam julat 30.2 - 43.2 μg cm-3. Kajian ini menunjukkan bahawa proses pengsiklikan kumpulan asid hidrazida dalam sebatian 2-(piridin-2-ylamino)asetohidrazida (2) kepada nukleus sebatain 1,3,4-oksadiazol menyebabkan peningkatan dalam aktiviti antimikrobial.

 

Kata kunci:; aktiviti antimikrob; asid hidrazida; sebatian 1,3,4-oksadiazol
