Abstract

The present work describes the synthesis, characterization, and evaluation of the antibacterial activity of a new poly azo compound resulting from the coupling of a previously reported N -arylsuccinimid precursor 5 with the diazonium ion of aniline. This azo compound was characterized using its physical, elemental, and 1D and 2D spectroscopic data. The novel azo compound 7 (minimum inhibitory concentration [MIC] = 16–32 μg/mL) showed higher antibacterial activity than its precursor 5 (MIC = 32–64 μg/mL), although it was low compared to the reference drug ciprofloxacin (MIC = 0.5–4 μg/mL).

Abstract

A series of novel 4,6-dimorpholinyl-1,3,5-triazine derivatives 6a–6r were obtained through N -substitution and Claisen-Schmidt condensation. 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR, and mass spectrometry were used to characterize the molecular structures of the derivatives. The in vitro antiproliferation activity of derivatives was evaluated using the MTT assay against SW620 (human colon cancer cells), A549 (human nonsmall cell lung cancer cells), HeLa (human cervical cancer cells), and MCF-7 (human breast cancer cells). Compound 6o bearing a pyridyl group exhibited good cytotoxicity against four cancer cells, with IC 50 values of 8.71, 9.55, 15.67, and 21.77 μM, sequentially. In addition, compound 6a showed some selectivity against SW620. Graphical abstract The chalcone structure was introduced into the 4,6-dimorpholinyl-1,3,5-triazine molecule through the C-N bond, and a series of new compounds were obtained. Among them, the pyridyl-containing 6o exhibits anti-proliferation activity similar to that of cisplatin on SW620. Interestingly, the phenyl-containing 6a exhibits a certain selectivity for the anti-proliferation activity of SW620.

Abstract

In the drug chemistry industry, synthesizing a talented exclusive series of aza-polyheterocyclic compounds was crucial. Aminopyrimidine nucleus reacted with two equivalents of benzaldehyde in the presence of KOH as a starting material to bring about imidazopyrimidine derivative, which experienced intermolecular cyclization using carbon disulfide, Br 2 /AcOH, and/or HNO 2 to produce thiazole, thieno, and/or nitro pyrimidine derivative, respectively. Accordingly, the nucleus of Aminopyrimidine was prepared and used to develop the novel polyheterocyclic systems acylated with two moles of succinic anhydride to furnish the imidazolopyrimidine derivative. Benzylidene ethyl cyanoacetate and aminopyrimidine undergo (3 + 4) intermolecular cycloaddition 1,3 H shift followed by hydrolysis and after CO 2 evolution provided diazepine derivative. The diazepine derivative was attained due to the cyclo-condensation of the starting material and acetylacetone. Moreover, the structure of the novel synthesized compound series was exploited and verified via spectroscopic approaches. The synthesized series were tested for antimicrobial activity against gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial strains and antifungal activity. The thienopyrimidine derivatives and diazepine exhibited unusual antimicrobial activity. Furthermore, the molecular docking studies confirmed the biological studies with Molecular Operating Environment and petro orisis molinspiration studies, which proved the activity of compounds 4, 5, 7, 10, 13 , and 16 .

Abstract

Due to the chemical properties of Group VIII transition metals and their importance in catalytic processes, the reactions of rhodium and its neighboring organic complexes have received much attention as model systems. In the present experiments, we successfully prepared two new rhodium complexes named [Rh(cod)(TTP)Cl] and [Rh(cod)(CDP)Cl] using tri( o -tolyl)phosphine and clohexyldiphenylphosphine as ligands, respectively, and the proofs of their structures were completed using 1 H NMR and 13 C NMR. Subsequently, it was applied to the polymerization reaction of phenylacetylene (PA), and the effects of different solvents, time, and temperature on the yield and molecular weight of the polymerization reaction products were discussed. The experimental results show that both complexes can play a catalytic role in the polymerization of PA. From the point of view of polymer molecular weight, the best reaction conditions for both catalysts were 3 h at 20°C in THF solvent (molecular weight up to 2.40 × 10 5 ). From the point of view of yield, the best reaction conditions for both catalysts were 4 h at 35°C in THF solvent (yield up to 89.2%).

Abstract

In this study, metal–organic nanofibers (MONFs) and reduced graphite oxide (rGO) nanocomposite were used to modify the surface of glassy carbon electrode, and the electrochemical sensor was applied to the differential pulse voltammetry determination of hypoxanthine, the oxidation intermediate of human purine degradation metabolism. The preparation of MONFs/rGO nanocomposite is simple, efficient, and environmentally friendly. The morphology and structure of MONFs/rGO nanocomposite were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The results show that the improved sensor has a significant increase in current density, with linear ranges of 0.1–10 and 20–100 μM. Detection limit 0.01 μM ( S / N = 3). Under the optimized conditions, the improved sensor shows very good stability, selectivity, and improved accuracy.

Abstract

N -Substituted-2-propanamide analogues of 1,3,4-oxadiazole have been synthesized using a multi-step synthetic protocol to explore new therapeutic anti-enzymatic agents. Herein, we have merged sulfonyl, piperidine, oxadiazole and amide into a single unit to synthesize a library of unique compounds, 8a–n . The molecular structures of all synthesized compounds were verified by 13 C-NMR, 1 H-NMR, HRMS and IR spectroscopy. Furthermore, the compounds were screened for their inhibition potential against acetylcholinesterase (AChE), urease and lipoxygenase (LOX) enzymes. A considerable inhibition potential was observed for three compounds against LOX with quercetin as a reference standard, two compounds against urease with thiourea as a reference standard and two compounds against AChE with eserine as a reference standard. Through molecular docking investigations, we were able to correlate the overall impact and inhibition criteria by the structure–activity relationship via the interactions between synthesized compounds and active sites of enzymes. Pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics and in vivo studies may be investigated further for the most active compounds to substantiate them as potential anti-enzymatic medications.

Abstract

Novel acyl pyrazoles and acyl triazoles have been prepared by means of the oxidative amidation of aldehydes in the presence of the requisite azole. Yields range from modest to good in both cases, and some limitations of the substrate scope have been discovered. Acyl pyrazoles were prepared by treatment of a mixture of aldehyde and pyrazole with an oxoammonium salt bearing the nitrate anion. In the case of acyl triazoles, the oxidative functionalization was performed using sodium persulfate as a terminal oxidant in the presence of a catalytic quantity of a nitroxide.

Abstract

Lung cancer shows a high rate of incidence and mortality. This study aimed to investigate the influence of octreotide (OCT) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced apoptosis and metabolome expression in A549 cells. After A549 cells were treated by LPS or co-cultured with LPS and OCT, cell apoptosis was tested by flow cytometry, and gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC/MS) and high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometer (LC/MS) were subjected to determine the differently expressed metabolites, and the interaction network was constructed. Results found that OCT promoted the apoptosis of A549 cells and significantly affected LPS-regulated cell apoptosis. Following the further investigation by orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA), the metabolites with different expression levels were obtained, and most of which belong to amino acids, phospholipids, organic acid, and saccharides. Fourteen components with the role of the marker metabolites included serotonin, indole, threonine, serine, glucose, phenylalanine, lactose, fumarate, 4-hydroxyphenyllactate, aspartate, asparagine, putrescine, proline, and succinate. It is indicated that OCT promotes apoptosis through five metabolism pathways and 14 key metabolism elements in A549 cells.

Abstract

Cervical cancer is a typical cancer characterized by abnormal cell growth in the cervical area. Ginkgo biloba L. is a deciduous tree of the genus Ginkgo , possessing anti-cancer effects. The aim of this study was to explore the effect of strain J1 from Ginkgo biloba L. on apoptosis of cervical cancer cells. Bacteriostatic activity test, MTT assay and Flow cytometry were used in this study. Crude extract of J1 fermentation reduced cell growth in cervical cancer. The crude extract of the fermentation broth of strain J1 had a good inhibitory effect on Staphylococcus aureus . The crude extract of the J1 fermentation had no toxic effect on normal WISH cells in the range of anti-cervical cancer concentration. Crude extract of J1 fermentation induced apoptosis and regulated cell cycle in cervical cancer. The active compounds were separated and identified by preparative chromatography, and more than ten compounds were obtained. Our study suggests that the crude extract of J1 fermentation from Endophytic fungi of Ginkgo biloba reduced cell growth, and promoted apoptosis of cervical cancer, and is a potential therapeutic strategy for the treatment of cervical carcinoma.
