| Abstract | ||
| A literature survey revealed that the thiouracil derivatives and their condensed heterocycles have occupied a marked position as synthon for various biologically active compounds. They have a wide range of therapeutic uses that include anti-cancer, anti-microbial, molluscicidal, anti-leishmanial, anti-oxidant, anti-viral as anti-HIV and anti-HCV, and anti-thyroid activities. Numerous methods for the synthesis of thiouracils offer enormous scope in the field of medicinal chemistry. The review article aims to review the work reported for the synthesis and the biological activities of thiouracils and fused thiouracils from the past to recent years. | ||
