APPLICATIONS
Thiazole is a heterocyclic organic compound that has a five-member ring molecular structure, C3H3NS, containing three carbon atoms, one sulphur 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. It is parent material for numerous of chemcial compounds icluding sulfur drugs, biocides, fungicides, dyes, chemcal reaction accelerators. Thiazole dyes contain  the color radicals of =C=N- and -S-C= which decide colors to a compound . Azo dyes contain -N=N- radical. Thiazole dyes are useful in dying cotton. Benzothiazole is  thiazole fused to a benzene ring. Benzothiazole derivatives are important in rubber industry. Thiabendazole, substituted derivative of benzimidazole, is used as broad-spectrum anthelmintic and presevative. Some thiazole derivatives, belong to a class of cyclic sulfur organo products containing sulfur atom (S) and often oxygen (O), nitrogen (N), hydrogen (H), as well as other elements, can find application for making biological activitive agents such as antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal , antituberculous, antbody and antifungal agents. Thiazole and its derivatives are also used as thiol flavouring substances. 2-Amino-4-methylthiazole is an intermediate for dyes, photographic chemicals and sulfa drugs.
