IMIDAZOTHIAZOLES AND THEIR HYDROGENATED ANALOGS: METHODS OF SYNTHESIS AND BIOMEDICAL POTENTIAL

Abstract
The review summarizes and analyzes literature data on the methods of synthesis and biological properties of known types of imidazothiazoles. The classification of existing synthetic methods is based on the principle of the amount of research invested, from the most to the least studied. The bibliography of the review includes 80 references.
Keywords
