Abstract: A series of 2-(5-nitro-2-furyl) and 2-(5-nitro-2-thienyl)-5-substituted-1,3,4-thiadiazoles (5a-d and 6a-j) were synthesized and evaluated against Leishmania major promastigotes using (3)H-thymidine incorporation. Most of the compounds showed activity better than the reference drug sodium stibogluconate (Pentostam). The most active compound was 6c (IC(50)=0.1 microM).
