title: Synthesis and biological activity of some di(nitrothienyl)- and di(acetylaminothienyl)sulfones.
abstract: Some new di(nitrothienyl)- and di(acetylaminothienyl)sulfones were synthesized. Compounds (I)-(VI) were active against several Gram-positive bacteria, in vitro. Di(5-acetylamino-2-thienyl)sulfone (VII) showed a mild antimalarial activity against a drug-sensitive strain of P. berghei in mice.
