Synthesis and Diverse Pharmacological Actions of Thiosemicarbazide Analogs: A Review

Background: Thiosemicarbazide is an important substance in the synthesis of pharmacological and bioactive substances, and it is commonly used in the discovery of new medications. Multiple synthetic approaches exist for the creation of different thiosemicarbazide analogs, which are then discovered to treat a variety of diseases. Objective: This review paper aims to determine the growing importance of thiosemicarbazide analogs in various types of sickness by examining various unique synthetic methods that have been described to manufacture them. Methods: To incorporate published research and review papers, a comprehensive review of the literature from many sources during the past 24 years was conducted. Results: This paper summarises the findings of a literature review about the synthesis and biological activity of thiosemicarbazide and thiosemicarbazone derivatives. Conclusion: Numerous new studies on the role of thiosemicarbazide and thiosemicarbazone derivatives, as well as their methods of production and biological activity for various forms of the disease, are discussed in this review article.
