Introduction

Thiosemicarbazide is one of the N-amino thiourea compounds and is considered an effective control for rice bacterial leaf blight as a ketone reagent, some metals as arodenticide. Antibiotics have been used in organic chemistry to condense aldehyde or ketone with semicarbazide to form semicarbazone derivatives such as nitrofurazone [1]. Due to their antineoplastic action, thiosemcarbazone derivatives from related aldehydes and 2- formyl pyridine have been of considerable interest [2]. Thiosemcarbazone derivatives are of the broad pharmaceutical interest and exhibit various biological activities such as anticancer, antifungal, Leprosy, and antiviral [3-4].

For various pathological states [15-12] (including antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory, the therapeutic effect of a compound containing 1,3,4-thiadiazole ring has been well studied. Because of their numerous applications as agricultural insecticidal, antidepressants, thiadiazole gained widespread attention. The 4- thiazolidinone class is an essential analogue of heterocyclic thiazolidine compounds. 4-thiazolidinone derivatives have been synthesized by various methods. Enaminones reactions with ethyl-2-bromo propionate [13] are included in this method. Thiosemicarbazones bearing aromatic heterocyclic moiety tens to have improved the biological activities [14,15]. On the other hand, due to their therapeutic and pharmacological activities, heterocyclic compounds containing the dole ring are of considerable importance [16-22].
