Abstract
The five-membered heterocyclic moieties comprising three hetero atoms or two hetero atoms (generally āNā and āSā) have gained significant interest among researchers as these compounds displayed significant therapeutic potential. These heterocycles can serve as a building block for the development of novel molecular structures. The chapter comprises the different synthetic strategies which provide diversified molecular libraries containing thiadiazoles, oxadiazoles, isoxazole, and isothiazole moieties. The therapeutic potential of some of the synthesized derivatives is also described in this chapter.
