Piperazine is an organic compound consisting of a six-membered ring containing two nitrogen atoms in opposite positions in the ring. The chemical formula of piperazine is C4H10N2, and it is an important pharmaceutical intermediate. Pyrimidines and piperazines are known to be the backbone of many bulk compounds and important core structures for approved drugs; studies have shown that combining a pyridine ring with a piperazine moiety within a single structural framework enhances biological activity.
Tetrazoles are doubly unsaturated five-membered aromatic heterocycles consisting of one carbon atom and four nitrogen atoms. Tetrazole derivatives are a major class of heterocyclic compounds that are important for medicinal chemistry and drug design because of their not only isosteric properties with carboxylic acid and amide moieties, but also metabolic stability and other beneficial physicochemical properties.
