Description

2,5-Diphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole is an aromatic hydrocarbon that has a linear structure. It has been shown to have potent inhibitory activity against rat liver microsomes and human liver. The mechanism of this inhibition is not yet fully understood. However, it has been suggested that the molecule may be acting as a luminophore, absorbing radiation and emitting it in the form of fluorescence. This hypothesis is supported by the observation of a strong fluorescence when 2,5-diphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole is irradiated with light of wavelength between 380 nm and 500 nm. 2,5-Diphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole may also be acting as an electron donor or acceptor in a transfer reaction with benzoylhydrazone. This reaction generates radicals which react with oxygen to produce singlet oxygen molecules that can react with other radicals
