ABSTRACT: 1,2,3-Benzotriazole (BTA) is a heterocyclic compound with three nitrogen atoms. The enormous investigations on derivatives of benzotriazole reveals wide applicability of this molecules for tagging and delivering huge number of heterocyclic nuclei. This molecule has been used for the analytical determination of silver as well as a restrainer in photographic emulsions. The effectiveness of 1,2,3-Benzotriazole (BTA) as drug precursors have been drawing attention for a long period. The derivatives of benzotriazole act as agonists for many biologically active proteins. For instance, corozole and alizapride have the inhibitory properties against different proteins and Benzotriazole esters have been reported to work as mechanism-based inactivators for severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) 3CL protease. The various derivatives synthesized by different research workers showed antimicrobial activities such as antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, anthelmintics, antiprotozoal and antimycobacterial activity. The present article throws light on the different derivatives of benzotriazole and their related biological activity, and is reported chronologically. The chronologic development in the synthesis of its derivatives and related changes in therapeutic activity opens new channels for the researchers to work on benzotriazole molecules to develop some highly effective lead molecules.

Benzotriazole, Antibacterial, Antifungal, Antiviral, Anthelmintics, Antiprotozoal And Antimycobacterial Activity
INTRODUCTION: As the micro-organisms are rapidly undergoing genetic changes and developing resistance against many antibiotics and therapeutic agents for various diseases more quickly than new drugs are being made available so the war against the infectious diseases has become a never ending process. Over the past few decades, there are great interest of triazole class arising due to their wide use in industry and agriculture. Benzotriazole and its derivatives have great significance in medicinal chemistry.
Benzotriazole derivatives are nitrogen containing bicyclic ring system and have been demonstrated for many biological activities, such as antibacterial, antifungal, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antimalarial and antitubercular activity 1. Benzotriazole derivatives also possess antihelminthics and antiprotozoal action. For example, 5, 6-dimethyl-1H-benzotriazole and 5,6-dibromo-1H-benzotriazole are antiprotozoal and active against Acanthamoeba castellani, N-heteroaryl benzotriazole derivatives are anti helminthics, 5-arylidene – 2 – aryl - 3- benzotri azoloacetamidyl) - 1,3-thiazolidin-4-ones are antibacterial, 1-[3-(4-benzotriazol-1/2-yl- 3-fluoro -phenyl) - 2 - oxooxazolidin -5- yl methyl] - 3 –substituted thiourea derivatives are reported antitubercular activity 2. Benzotriazole derivatives act as agonists for many proteins.
Benzotriazoles are often used as corrosion inhibitors, radioprotectors, and photo stabilizer in the production of plastic, rubber and chemical fiber 3. Along with these activities, benzotriazole is also important as a precursor in the synthesis of peptides, acid azides, preparation of 3-hydroxymethyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofurans and 3-hydroxymethylbenzofurans 2.
Benzotriazole have three tautomers, namely two 1H-forms and one 2H-form. In solution, the equilibrium lie almost entirely on the side of the 1H-forms 4. Benzotriazole is an extremely weak base, but with a pKa = 8.2, it is a stronger NH-acid than indazole, benzimidazole or 1,2,3-triazole 5.
The literature survey reveals that heterocyclic compounds bearing benzotriazoles as part of main molecule showed versatile biological activities particularly antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, anticonvulsant and anticancer activity. Benztriazole derivatives have effectively been proven as antimicrobials.
Synthesis: Benzotriazoles are synthesized by cyclocondensation of o-phenylenediamines with sodium nitrite in acetic acid (Fig. 1). The reaction involved the simple heating the reagents together. Conversion of the diamine into the mono-diazonium derivative is followed by spontaneous cyclization 6.

CONCLUSION: The present review of benzotriazole derivatives is focussed on screening of biological activities such as antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, antiprotozoal, anthelmentic, anti-inflammatory, anticonvulsant etc. in which benzotriazole is act as a tagging molecule to deliver other pharmacologically active heterocyclic nuclei. Now it can be reasonable to expect that benzotriazole as tagging molecule will definitely play a remarkable role in medicinal chemistry. The investigated reports in this review definitely suggests the possibility to develop a lead compound in which benzotriazole is used as a tagging molecule to emerge new chemical entities (NCE’s) of benzotriazole having potential pharmacological activity.
