Oxadiazoles are a class of heterocyclic aromatic compounds with the molecular formula C2H2N2O, which have special biological activities and thermodynamic properties. Five-membered heterocyclic moieties composed of three or two heteroatoms are of great interest to researchers because these compounds show significant therapeutic potential. These heterocycles can serve as a building block for the development of novel molecular structures.
1,2-Benzoisoxazole is an aromatic organic compound with the molecular formula C7H5NO containing a benzene-fused isoxazole ring structure. The compound itself has no general application; however, functionalized benzoxazoles and benzoisoxazoles have a variety of uses, including therapeutic drugs such as some antipsychotics (including risperidone, paliperidone, cape ketone and iloperidone) and the anticonvulsant azolamide.
