The synthesis of N0 -(4-substitutedphenylsulfonyl)-2-{4-[2-(1H-indol-yl)ethyl]-3-(4-chlorobenzyl)-5 oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl}acetohydrazides (3a– c), 2-{4-[2-(1H-indol-3-yl)ethyl]-3-(4-chlorobenzyl)-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl}-N0 -aryl methylidene acetohydrazides (4a–f) and 4-[2-(1H-indol-3-yl)ethyl]-5-(4-substitutedbenzyl)-2-[(5-sulfanyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)methyl]- 2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-ones (5a, b) was performed starting from the corresponding acid hydrazides (2a, b) which was reported earlier. The treatment of 1,3,4 oxadiazole derivatives (5a, b) with hydrazine hydrate produced 4-amino-5-sulfanyl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl derivatives (6a, b). Then, compound 6b was converted to the corresponding Schiff base (7) by the treatment with anisaldehyde. The synthesis of 5-(4-chlorobenzyl)-4-[2- (1H-indol-3-yl)ethyl]-2-[(4-benzyl-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)methyl]-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one (8) and 5-(4-methylbenzyl)-4-[2-(1H-indol-3-yl) ethyl]-2-[(4-benzyl-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3 yl)methyl]-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one (10) was carried out by the reaction of acid hydrazides (2a, b) with aryl iso(thio)cyanates either via the formation of the intermediates (9a, b) (for 10) or direct cyclization (for 8).1,3-Oxa(thia)zol-2(3H)-ylidene]acetohydrazide derivatives (11a, b) were obtained by the reaction of 9a, b with 4-chlorophenacyl bromide. All newly synthesized compounds were screened for their antimicrobial activities and some of which was found to be active against the test microorganisms.
