- Synthesis of some novel thiocyanotopurine derivatives and investigation of their antimicrobial activity and DNA interactions
-
A series of 6-thiocyanatopurine derivatives introduced with different alkyl groups in position 9 was synthesized. The structures of the synthesized compounds were evaluated via spectroscopic methods and elemental methods of analyses. All the synthesized compounds were screened for their antibacterial activities against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and for their antifungal activities against yeast strains. All the synthesized compounds showed better antibacterial activities against Gram-positive bacteria compared to Gram-negative bacteria. DNA interactions with pBR322 DNA were determined. Most of the compounds caused conformational changes in DNA.

- Quantitative gas-solid reactions with ClCN and BrCN: Synthesis of cyanamides, cyanates, thiocyanates, and their derivatives
-
Gas-solid reaction techniques allow quantitative cyanations with ClCN and BrCN. Three primary and four secondary cyanamides, a cyanimide, four cyanates, and four thiocyanates were all prepared as solids in 100% yield from solid anilines, benzimidazoles, imides, phenolates, and thiolates, respectively. Intramolecular solid-state reactions of cyanated o-aminophenol and of cyanated hydrazides gave heterocyclic compounds. When comparable reactions were performed in solution the reported product yields were considerably less than 100% in all cases. The reasons for the success of the environmentally benign solid-state syntheses are discussed in terms of phase rebuilding, phase transformation, and crystal disintegration. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) of selected systems indicates the occurrence of long-range molecular movements which are governed by the crystal packing. This is evident from the obvious correlations between the molecular movements and the known crystal packing data. A new type of geometric surface feature, a rectangular and a rhombic depression which resembles a swimming-pool basin, was found in the cyanation of o-aminophenol and benzohydrazide.
