Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plays an important role in industry; however, due to its uncontrolled accumulation in the environment, the methods for its utilization are of high demand. Herein we wish to report an approach for the utilization of PVC via its use as a carrier for some azole-based drugs, such as 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (multi-activity drug), 4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-pyrazolo[5,1-c]-1,2,4-triazine-3,8-dicarboxylic acid diethyl ester (antidiabetic drug) and 5-methyl-6-nitro-7-oxo-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidinide (antiviral drug). The abovementioned approach involves the reaction between PVC and potassium or sodium salts of these azole-based drugs either in solution or under ball-milling conditions. The as-obtained PVCs modified with azole-based drugs were isolated for the first time and characterized by means of 1H NMR-spectroscopy as well as gel-permeation chromatography (GPC).
