A convenient method for the preparation of imidazobenzimidazole 3, imidazoimidazole 5, imidazotriazole 6 and pyrano [2, 3-c] oxazole 7 derivatives is described. This depends on interaction of 2-methyl-4-arylidene-2-oxazolin-5-ones 1 with o-diamines, thiosemicarbazide and/or ethylcyanoacetate. The effect of alcoholic potassium cyanide on axazolinone 1 was studied. Antibacterial activity of the obtained products was studied.

The geometry optimization of oxazole, relevant to the binding of lexitropsin that contains this ring to the base pair (G-C sequence) of minor groove of DNA, is performed with the aid of MM+ and ab initio (Hartree-Fock) calculations. The proton affinity and electronic structure are calculated at the 6-31G and $6-31G^{\ast}$ level for the optimized geometry. The proton affinities are also studied for various substituted oxazoles with the electron-donating and -withdrawing groups to estimate the substituent effect on the proton affinities of oxazoles. It is shown that the electron-donating substituents increase the proton affinity of oxazole, while the electron-withdrawing substituents decrease it. This result can be explained with atomic charge and electron density at oxygen of substituted oxazoles.

Amphibians play a pivotal role in the ecosystem as a mediator between aquatic and terrestrial environment. Currently they are directly exposed to a variety of chemicals in the aquatic environment throughout their life cycle. Azole fungicides have been widely used in medical applications and agricultural activities. The direct exposure of azole fungicides causes an alarming situation for various ecosystem. Recently, teratogenesis and endocrine disruption by azole fungicides have been reported in amphibians. In an effort to provide the current information for amphibian toxicity of azole fungicides and to make the guidelines for safe usage of azole-based materials, the effects of azole fungicides including imidazole, triazole, thiazole, oxazole, and pyrazoleon on early development, differentiation and reproduction of amphibians were reviewed.

The ring-opening isomerization polymerization behavior of 2,5,6,7-tetrahydro-3H-imidazo[2,1-b] [1,3] oxazine(TII) has been studied under various conditions. The present study aimed at improving the low polymerizability of the above monomer (six-membered ring) up to a level comparable to that of 2,5,6-tetrahydroimidazo[2,1-b] [l,3] oxazole(TIO) (five-membered ring). The optimum result could be observed when methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate(MeOTf) and nitrobenzene were used as an initiator and a solvent in the polymerization at $60^{\circ}C$ for 24 h. Polymers were confirmed by$^1H$ NMR과$^{13}C$ NMR, and m measurements. The molecular weight obtained by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) corresponded to the molecular weight theoretically calculated from the feed ratio. The melting temperature ($T_m$) of TII was conspicuously different from that of TIO, because of the difference in the alkyl group.

3-Chloro-1-benzothiophene-2-carbonyl chloride 1 was reacted with glycine in acetone to give 3-chloro-1-benzothiophen-2-yl-carbonylaminoacetic acid 2. Various aldehydes on treatment with compound 2 in acetic anhydride to gave 1,3-oxazol-5-ones 3a-d. These oxazolones was treated with aromatic amines or hydrazides to get various imidazol-4-ones 4a-t or 5a-l. Oxazolones 3a-d was also treated with aromatic hydrazines, expansion of five member oxazole ring to six member triazine ring occurs to yield 1,2,4-triazin-6-ones 6a-h. The structures of all the synthesized compounds were confirmed by spectral data and had been screened for antibacterial activity.

3-Chloro-1-benzothiophene-2-carbonylchloride (1) was allowed to react with glycine to give 3-chloro-1-benzothiophen-2-yl-carbonylaminoacetic acid (2). Various aldehydes were treated with compound (2) in acetic anhydride to get 1,3-oxazol-5-ones (3a-d). These oxazolones were treated with aromatic amines or hydrazides to get various imidazol-4-ones (4a-h or 5al) separately. Oxazolones was also treated with aromatic hydrazine, through which expansion of five membered oxazole ring to six member triazine ring occurs to yield 1,2,4-triazin-6-ones (6a-h). The structures of all the synthesized compounds were confirmed by spectral data and were screened for antibacterial and antifungal activities.

In the course of screening for the tipA promoter-inducing substances, we isolated an active compound, sulfomycin Ia, from the mycelium of a microorganism designated 50634. The producing organism was identified as Streptomyces sp. on the basis of taxonomic studies. Sulfomycin Ia was purified from mycelial extract by silica gel column chromatography, LH-20 column chromatography, silica gel TLC, and preparative HPLC. The molecular weight of sulfomycin Ia was determined to be m/z 1129 (M+Na)$^{+}$ by FAB mass measurement and $^{1}$H NMR spectroscopic analysis. The structure was assigned as a derivative of sulfomycin I with thiazole, methyloxazole, oxazole, and pyridine rings by $^{1}$H NMR spectral data.

The condensation reactions of hippuric acid and tis furyl derivative with salicyladehydes or that of salicylhippuric acid analogues with furadehyde led to the comesponding oxazoles. These wre subsequently treated with hydrazine hydrate, hydroxylamine or subjected to alkaline hydrolysis to yield new o-hydroxyaryl or salicyl containing derivatives. 5-Substituted salicylanilides were treated with piperidine and formaldehyde in a Mannich type reaction affording the corresponding 3-(N-piperidinomethyl) salicylanilides. It was noticed that the presence of an electron donating group in in position 3 in the salicylanilide moiety decrease the mollusicidal activity.

KSM-2690 B (1), a peptide-polyketide hybrid compound, was discovered from an actinomycete strain (CJD 1) isolated from Dong-Baek hill on Jeju Island, Republic of Korea. The chemical structure of 1 was identified by using NMR, MS, and UV spectroscopic analyses. Careful analysis of 1D and 2D NMR data revealed that KSM-2690 (1) has an oxazole ring, a β-lactone-γ-lactam spirocycle ring, and both triene and diene structures. KSM-2690 B (1) showed inhibitory activities against E. coli at 200 ㎍/mL.
