New 5-alkyl and 3-(2,4-dimethylphenyl) substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thione derivatives were synthesized by the ring closure reactions of various acylhydrazides with carbon disulphide. Mannich bases for some of these compounds were also synthesized by condensation with benzaldehyde and primary amines. All new compounds were characterized by spectral data. Most of them were tested for their antibacterial and antituberculostatic activity.
