RESUMO
5-Arylidene-2-thioxo-4-thiazolidinones 3a-f react with each of 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl and alpha-D-galactopyranosyl bromides 4a,b in acetone in the presence of aqueous potassium hydroxide at room temperature to afford N-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranosyl) or N-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-d-galactopyranosyl) 2-thioxo-4-thiazolidinone derivatives 5a-f. Similarly, the reaction of 5-cycloalkylidene-2-thioxo-4-thiazolidinones 7a,b with 4a gave the corresponding N-glucosides 8a,b. Also, 5-pyrazolidene rhodanines 10a-e react with 4a to afford the new N-glucosides 11a-e. Treatment of compounds 15 and 16 with 4a in the presence of few drops of triethylamine or in KOH solution accomplished the mono- and bis-nucleosides 17 and 18, respectively. Some selected products were tested for their antimicrobial activities.
