Bp. Kansagra et al., Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of substituted 4-thiazolidinones bearing 2-chloro quinoline nucleus, I J HET CHE, 10(1), 2000, pp. 5-8
2-Chloro-3-formyl-5,8-dimethoxy quinoline (I) has been condensed with aryl
amines to yield azomethines (II) in good yield which were cyclized with thi
oglycolic acid and thiolactic acid to yield corresponding compounds III and
IV. All compounds have been tested for their antibacterial and antifungal
activities.
