biological Aspects of 1,3,4 -oxadiazole derivatives
Abstract
Heterocyclic compounds analog have attracted wide attention due to their useful biological properties. Among them, 1,3,4-oxadiazoles have exhibited
a wide range of biological properties including anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-fungal, anti-cancer, anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, anti-hypertensive,
anti-convulsant and anti-diabetic properties. The purpose of this review is to collect the literature work reported by researchers on oxadiazole
derivatives for their various pharmacological activities and also efforts made on this moiety. This review covers the work reported on various
biological activities of oxadiazole derivatives from 2010 to 2014.
Keywords: Anti-cancer, Anti-microbial, 1,3,4-Oxadiazole.
