GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND APPLICATIONS

Oxazole is a heterocyclic organic compound that has a five-member ring molecular structure,C3H3ON, containing three carbon atoms, one oxygen atom, and one nitrogen atom. It is a clear to yellowish liquid with a pyridine like odor. It is soluble in alcohol and ether and slightly soluble in water. Benzoxazole is a heterocyclic organic compound that has benzene-fused oxazole ring structure, C7H5NO, containing one oxygen atom, and one nitrogen atom. It is a clear to yellowish low melting solid; insoluble water. Oxazole and its derivatives are used as building block for biochemicals and pharmaceutical as well as in other industrial applications such as pesticides, dyes, fluorescent brightening agents, textile auxiliaries and plastics.

Pyrrole: One of a class of organic heterocyclic compounds of five-membered diunsaturated ring structure composed of four carbon atoms and one nitrogen atom. The simplest member of the pyrrole family is pyrrole itself, a basic heterocyclic compound; colorless to pale yellow, toxic oil with pungent taste and similar to chloroform odor; insoluble in water; soluble in alcohol, ether, and dilute acids; boils at 129 - 131 C; polymerizes in light. Pyrrole ring system is involved in coloured products (green pigment, chlorophyll; red, hemoglobin; , blue, indigo) in nature. Pyrrolidine, the saturated tetrahydropyrrole, is part of the structures of amino acids (proline, hydroxyproline and hygrine). Pyrroline is a pyrrole in which one of the two solid bonds has been hydrogenated. Pyrrole and its derivatives are widely used as an intermediate in synthesis of pharmaceuticals, medicines, agrochemicals, dyes, photographic chemicals, perfumes and other organic compounds. They are also used as catalysts for polymerization process, corrosion inhibitors, preservatives, and as solvents for resins and terpenes. They are used in metallurgical processes. They are useful in the intensive study of transition-metal complex catalyst chemistry for uniform polymerization, luminescence chemistry and spectrophotometric analysis.

  • Triazole: An analog of imidazole. It has three nitrogen atoms and two carbon atoms at nonadjacent positions in the ring system.
  • Pyrrole: An analog of imidazole. It has only one nitrogen atom in the ring system. Pyrrole ring system is involved in coloured products (green pigment, chlorophyll; red, hemoglobin; , blue, indigo) in nature.
  • Pyrroline: A pyrrole in which one of the two solid bonds are hydrogenated.
  • Pyrrolidine: The saturated tetrahydropyrrole, a part of the structures of amino acids (proline, hydroxyproline and hygrine).
  • Pyrazole: 1,2-Diazole (Imidazole isomer). The nitrogen positions are 1 and 2. It is not found in nature
  • Pyrazolone: Pyrazole analog with ketone group at 5 position
  • Oxazole: an analog of imidazole. The nitrogen atom in position 1 is replaced by oxygen.
  • Isoxazole: an analog of pyrazole. The nitrogen atom at position 1 is replaced by oxygen.
  • Isothiazole:an analog of pyrazole. The nitrogen atom at position 1 is replaced by sulfur.
