Synthesis, spectral studies and biological activities of some N-bridged heterocycles derived from 3-arylaminomethyl-4-amino-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazoles.

Synthesis of four 3-arylaminomethyl-4-amino-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazoles starting from substituted anilines is described. These triazoles were employed in the synthesis of some N-bridged heterocycles carrying arylaminomethyl substituents. All the newly synthesized compounds were characterized by analytical, NMR and mass spectral studies. Some of the newly synthesized compounds were screened for their antibacterial and antiviral properties.
