Application

Thiazolidine-2-carboxylic acid may be used in the synthesis of azabicycloadducts and 5-aryl-2,3-dihydropyrrolo[2,1-b]thiazole-6,7-dimethanol 6,7-bis(isopropylcarbamates).

General description

Thiazolidine-2-carboxylic acid (β-thiaproline) is a proline analog. It is an important building block of β-lactam antibiotics. Its X-ray photoelectron spectra has been investigated. It has been reported as a physiological substrate of hog kidney D-amino acid oxidase. Thiazolidine-2-carboxylic acid can be synthesized from cysteamine and glyoxylate.

Adducts of glyoxylate with L-cysteine or L-cysteinylglycine were found to be excellent substrates at low concentrations for beef kidney D-aspartate oxidase. Evidence is presented that cis-thiazolidine-2,4-dicarboxylate and its glycine amide are the actual substrates, and that both are converted in

Thiazolidine-2-carboxylic acid, or beta-thiaproline, is a proline analog in which the beta methylene group of proline is substituted by a sulfur atom. It has been deomonstrated that beta-thiaproline is activated and transferred to tRNAPro by Escherichia coli and rat liver

2-Substituted thiazolidine-4(R)-carboxylic acids (TD) were found to increase the concentration of non-protein sulphydryls (NPSH) and the activity of rhodanese (thiosulphate sulphurtransferase, EC 2.8.1.1) and 3-mercaptopyruvate sulphurtransferase (EC 2.8.1.2) in mouse liver. These properties suggest TDs are potentially hepatoprotective compounds. However

Copper complexes with strong anticancer activity are promising new drugs for treatment of patients with metastatic cancer. Copper 8-hydroxyquinoline-2-carboxaldehyde-thiosemicarbazide (CuHQTS) and copper 8-hydroxyquinoline-2-carboxaldehyde-4,4-dimethyl-3-thiosemicarbazide (CuHQDMTS) were found to have strong anticancer activity against cisplatin-resistant neuroblastoma cells and prostate cancer cells.
