Biological Application of Thiourea Derivatives

Thioureas have great medicinal applications as well as non-medicinal activities in industry, analytical chemistry and metallurgy. This review is a glimpse of methods of synthesis and applications of thioureas in the field of medicine and agriculture. Thioureas have a number of medicinal applications and a number of thioureas are in clinical use. Medicinal applications of thioureas are increasing with the passage of time. In the field of agriculture, thioureas are used as insect growth regulator, anti-fungal agents and herbicides. My focus is on the structure and activity of these derivatives over the past five years, highlighting the significant progress made in the field of organic synthesis. Additionally, I evaluate the current state of research in this area and provide an overview of the latest trends and future prospects. This review will prove to be beneficial for researchers, academics and industry professionals involved in drug development and organic synthesis
