Pyrrolidine, also known as tetrahydropyrrole, is a saturated five-membered heterocyclic ring, which is miscible with water. Pyrrolidine exists in many alkaloids and drug molecules, such as kappa opioids, antagonists of dopamine D4 receptors, and HIV reverse transcriptase inhibitors.
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.
