Abstract
Triazoles and oxadiazoles are nitrogen and nitrogen-oxygen containing heterocycles, respectively that belong to the azoles family. They have gained much attention of the synthetic and medicinal chemists as some of the natural products containing azole moiety contribute towards the development of some effective chemotherapeutic candidates. Therefore, this review mainly focuses on the existence of triazole and oxadiazole derivatives in natural sources, their isolation and biological importance besides highlighting the synthetic pathways to achieve these compounds. It covers the literature upto 2014 and would certainly provide a great insight to scientific community to bring further developments in the isolation and synthetic methodologies for triazole and oxadiazole based novel bioactive agents.
Keywords: Biological activities, isolation, natural products, oxadiazole, synthesis, triazole.

Ayurvedic medicinal therapeutic approaches for inflammatory and neurodegenerative disorders
Usually, in our elderly population, neurodegenerative disorders occur due to neuron death. Alzheimer?s disease (AD) is an irreversible and progressive neurodegenerative disease. Dementia is the leading cause of AD, which affects about 30 million people worldwide. According to the World Alzheimer report 2018, a new case of dementia develops every ...read more
Recent Advances in Biotransformation of Bioactive Terpenoids using Aspergillus niger
Biotransformation is the reaction catalyzed by biological catalysts of either isolated enzymes or whole cell cultures of microorganisms. This process has been extensively applied in the conversion of bioactive terpenoids with high regio- and stereospecifity. This process has been also applied in the lead discovery and development. Aspergillus niger has ...read more
