Among 28 types of heterogeneous and homogenous catalysts tested, Nb2O5 shows the highest yield for direct amidation of n-dodecanoic acid with a less reactive amine (aniline). The catalytic amidation by Nb2O5 is applicable to a wide range of carboxylic acids and amines with various functional groups, and the catalyst is reusable. A comparison of the results of the catalytic study and an infrared study of the acetic acid adsorbed on the catalyst suggests that activation of the carbonyl group of the carboxylic acid by Lewis acid sites on Nb2O5 is responsible for the high activity of the Nb2O5 catalyst. Kinetic studies show that Lewis acid sites on Nb2O5 are more water-tolerant than conventional Lewis acidic oxides (Al2O3, TiO2). In comparison with the state-of-the-art homogeneous Lewis acid catalyst for amidation (ZrCl4), Nb2O5 undergoes fewer negative effects from basic additives in the solution, which indicates that Nb2O5 is a more base-tolerant Lewis acid catalyst than the homogeneous Lewis acid catalyst.

In this study a series of dodecanoic acid derivatives (1-30) were synthesized and evaluated for in vitro antimicrobial activity against the panel of Gram positive, Gram negative bacterial and fungal strains. 4-Nitro phenyl dodecanoate (4) and quinolin-8-yl dodecanoate (5) emerged as most effective antibacterial agents, and 1-(4-benzylpiperazin- 1-yl) dodecan-1-one (15) was found to be the most effective antifungal agent amongst the synthesized dodecanoic acid derivatives. Quantitative structure activity relationship (QSAR) studies performed by the development of one-target and multi-target models indicated that multitarget model was effective in describing the antimicrobial activity of dodecanoic acid derivatives as well demonstrated the importance of topological parameter, zero-order molecular connectivity index (0X).

A series of N-substituted morpholines 2-20 was synthesised by reacting various acid chlorides and alkyl halides with morpholine (1). All of the synthesised compounds 2-20 were screened for their leishmanicidal effects using amphotericin B (IC50 = 0.24 μg L-1) and pentamidine (IC50 = 2.56 μg mL-1) as standards and a structure-activity relationship (SAR) study was established. The compounds 2 (IC50 = 48 μg mL-1), 3 (IC50 = 30.0 μg mL-1), 10 (IC50 = 41.0 μg mL-1), 15 (IC50 = 33.0 μg mL-1), 16 (IC50 = 35.0 μg mL-1) and 20 (IC50 = 47.0 μg mL-1) showed weak leishmanicidal activities.
