A variety of novel 5-[(Z)-arylidene]-2-[(2-(E)-arylidene)hydrazono]4-imidazolidinones 1a-c to 4a,b and 5-[(Z)-arylidene]-2-[(2-(E)-polyhydroxyalkylidene)hydrazono]-4- imidazolidinones 5a-c to 7a-c were prepared from the reaction of 5-[(Z)-arylidene]-2-methylmercaptohydantoins 8a-c with 2-(E)-arylidene hydrazones 13a-d and/or 2-(E)-monosaccharides hydrazones 16a-c. The linear structure, and not that of the angular isomer, has been selected for the products. This structure has been confirmed from a model study of the condensation of 5-[(Z)-2-thienylidene]-2-hydrazono-4-imidazolidinone 9a with benzaldehyde and D-galactose, respectively. The acetylation and benzoylation reactions of compounds 1-7 have been studied. All the new compounds were tested for their potential antiviral and antitumor activities.
