A new spirobenzopyran derivative (SPNH) was designed and synthesized which was applied in simultaneous colorimetric and NIR fluorescence detections for Cr3+. This spirobenzopyran receptor is normally colorless in aqueous organic media but the formation of merocyanine occurs by Cr3+ showing a yellow color. Here the formation of yellow color in UV-vis spectra and strong NIR fluorescence emission at 675 nm makes SPNH a good sensor for Cr 3+ ion. It is also found to be useful in cell imaging and in construction of logic gate. It shows INHIBIT gate in fluorescence and OR gate in absorption. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of NIR fluorescence emission of a spirobenzopyran derivative by Cr3+ and its application to cell-biology and also in the logic gate.

A new palladium(II) complex, [Pd(PPh3)(4-NO2-BZH)Cl2], bearing 4-Nitrobenzhydrazide and triphenylphosphine ligands has been synthesized and mainly characterized with single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, FT-IR, Raman and NMR spectroscopic methods. Theoretical calculations were performed to explain chemical structure and vibrational properties. The geometric optimization, vibrational wavenumbers and chemical shift values of the title compound were investigated using the DFT/ B3LYP method, 6-311G++(d,p) and LanL2DZ level of theory. An agreement between the experimental and the theoretical results was observed. The high chemical reactivity of the title compound was theoretically examined by calculating the chemical potential, electrophilicity index, chemical hardness and global electrophilicity index.

A new naphthalene based receptor (L) has been designed and synthesized which shows a remarkable color change from colorless to pink on selective binding with acetate. The anion recognition property of the receptor via hydrogen bonding interactions is monitored by UV-vis, fluorescence, and 1H NMR titrations. It is observed that in each case, the receptor shows a specific selectivity toward the acetate ion over other interfering anions. Thus, a significant bathochromic shift in UV-vis spectrum with a sharp pink color in 'naked-eye' makes the receptor suitable for the detection of the acetate ion.

A new C-vinylpyrrole containing aroylhydrazone, ethyl 2-cyano-3-{5-[(4- nitro-benzoyl)-hydrazonom-ethyl]-1H-pyrrol-2-yl}-acrylate (ECNBHPA) derived from ethyl 2-cyano-3-(5-formyl-1H-pyrrol-2-yl)-acrylate and 4-nitro-benzohydrazide has been characterized by various spectroscopic techniques (1H NMR, 13C NMR, Mass, UV-Visible, Emission, FT-IR). TD-DFT has been used to calculate the various electronic excitations and their nature within molecule. The emission spectra of ECNBHPA show photo-luminescent behavior of title molecule. Natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis has been carried out to explore the various conjugative/hyperconjugative interactions within molecule and their second order stabilization energy (E(2)). A combined experimental and theoretical vibrational analysis designates presence of the classical hydrogen bonding N1 AH29- ? N9 between pyrrole NAH as proton donor and N atom of cyanide as proton acceptor. To determine the strength and nature of hydrogen bonding, topological parameters at bond critical points (BCP) have been analyzed by 'Quantum theory of atoms in molecules' (QTAIM) in detail. The result of hydrogen bonding is obvious in 1H NMR, FT-IR and ESP map as down field chemical shift, vibrational red shift and absence of blue colur relative to pyrrole NAH proton, respectively. Global electrophilicity index (o = 6.573 eV) shows that title molecule behaves as a strong electro-phile. The local reactivity descriptors analyses such as Fukui functions (?,f k~), local softnesses (s￡,s^) and electrophilicity indices (cojJ",co^) have been performed to determine the reactive sites within molecule. The first hyperpolarizability (?0) of ECNBHPA has been computed to evaluate the non-linear optical (NLO) response of the investigated molecule.

A series of novel steroidal derivatives with a substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole structure was designed and synthesized, and the target compounds were evaluated for their insecticidal activity against five aphid species. Most of the tested compounds exhibited potent insecticidal activity against Eriosoma lanigerum (Hausmann), Myzus persicae, and Aphis citricola. Compounds 20g and 24g displayed the highest activity against E. lanigerum, showing LC50 values of 27.6 and 30.4 μg/mL, respectively. Ultrastructural changes in the midgut cells of E. lanigerum were detected by transmission electron microscopy, indicating that these steroidal oxazole derivatives might exert their insecticidal activity by destroying the mitochondria and nuclear membranes in insect midgut cells. Furthermore, a field trial showed that compound 20g exhibited effects similar to those of the positive controls chlorpyrifos and thiamethoxam against E. lanigerum, reaching a control rate of 89.5% at a dose of 200 μg/mL after 21 days. We also investigated the hydrolysis and metabolism of the target compounds in E. lanigerum by assaying the activities of three insecticide-detoxifying enzymes. Compound 20g at 50 μg/mL exhibited inhibitory action on carboxylesterase similar to the known inhibitor triphenyl phosphate. The above results demonstrate the potential of these steroidal oxazole derivatives to be developed as novel pesticides.

Tuberculosis (TB) causes millions of deaths every year, ranking as one of the most dangerous infectious diseases worldwide. Because several pathogenic strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) have developed resistance against most of the established anti-TB drugs, new therapeutic options are urgently needed. An attractive target for the development of new antitubercular agents is the salicylate synthase MbtI, an essential enzyme for the mycobacterial siderophore biochemical machinery, absent in human cells. A set of analogues of I and II, two of the most potent MbtI inhibitors identified to date, was synthesized, characterized, and tested to elucidate the structural requirements for achieving an efficient MbtI inhibition and a potent antitubercular activity with this class of compounds. The structure-activity relationships (SAR) here discussed evidenced the importance of the furan as part of the pharmacophore and led to the preparation of six new compounds (IV-IX), which gave us the opportunity to examine a hitherto unexplored position of the phenyl ring. Among them emerged 5-(3-cyano-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)furan-2-carboxylic acid (IV), endowed with comparable inhibitory properties to the previous leads, but a better antitubercular activity, which is a key issue in MbtI inhibitor research. Therefore, compound IV offers promising prospects for future studies on the development of novel agents against mycobacterial infections.

Bacterial infections are a serious threat to human health due to the development of resistance against the presently used antibiotics. The problem of growing and widespread antibiotic resistance is only getting worse with the shortage of new classes of antibiotics, creating a substantial unmet medical need in the treatment of serious bacterial infections. Therefore, in the present work, we report 18 novel hybrid thiazolidine–1,2,4-triazole derivatives as DNA gyrase inhibitors. The derivatives were synthesized by multistep organic synthesis and characterized by spectroscopic methods (1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectroscopy). The derivatives were tested for DNA gyrase inhibition, and the result emphasized that the synthesized derivatives have a tendency to inhibit the function of DNA gyrase. Furthermore, the compounds were also tested for antibacterial activity against three Gram-positive (Bacillus subtilis [NCIM 2063], Bacillus cereus [NCIM 2156], Staphylococcus aureus [NCIM 2079]) and two Gram-negative (Escherichia coli [NCIM 2065], Proteus vulgaris [NCIM 2027]) bacteria. The derivatives showed a significant-to-moderate antibacterial activity with noticeable antibiofilm efficacy. Quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR), ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism, elimination) calculation, molecular docking, radial distribution function, and 2D fingerprinting were also performed to elucidate fundamental structural fragments essential for their bioactivity. These studies suggest that the derivatives 10b and 10n have lead antibacterial properties with significant DNA gyrase inhibitory efficacy, and they can serve as a starting scaffold for the further development of new broad-spectrum antibacterial agents.

A new series of bis([1,2,4]triazolo)[4,3-a:3′,4′-c]quinoxaline derivatives were designed and synthesized to have the main essential pharmacophoric features of VEGFR-2 inhibitors. VEGFR-2 inhibitory activities were assessed for the designed compounds. In addition, cytotoxic activity was evaluated for all derivatives against two human cancer cell lines namely, HepG-2 and MCF-7. The most cytotoxic compound 20 h was subjected to further biological investigations including cell cycle, apoptosis, caspase-3, caspase-9, BAX, and Bcl-2 analyses. Different in silico studies as docking, ADMET and toxicity were carried out. The results exhibited that compounds 20b, 20e, 20h and 20m showed promising VEGFR-2 inhibitory activities with IC50 values of 5.7, 6.7, 3.2, and 3.1 μM, respectively. Moreover, these promising members exhibited the highest antiproliferative activities against the two cell lines with IC50 values ranging from 3.3 to 14.2 μM, comparing to sorafenib (IC50 = 2.17 and 3.43 μM against HepG2 and MCF-7, respectively). Additionally, compound 20h induced cell cycle arrest of HepG2 cells at G2/M phase. Also, such compound increased the progress of apoptosis by 3.5-fold compared to the control. As well, compound 20h showed a significant increase in the level of caspase-3 (2.07-fold), caspase-9 (1.72-fold), and BAX (1.83-fold), and a significant decrease in Bcl-2 level (1.92-fold). The in silico studies revealed that the synthesized compounds have binding pattern like that of sorafenib.

Tumor angiogenesis is mainly regulated by VEGFR-2. In this study, a new series of [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxaline based-derivatives has been designed and synthesized to develop new anti-proliferative and anti-VEGFR-2 members. Anti-proliferative activities of the synthesized compounds were tested against MCF-7 and HepG2 cell lines. Compound 19a exhibited the highest activity towards both MCF-7 and HepG2 cell lines (IC50 = 8.2 and 5.4 μM, respectively), compared to sorafenib (IC50 = 3.51 and 2.17 μM, respectively). Additionally, all compounds were screened to evaluate their effect as VEGFR-2 inhibitors. Compound 19a (IC50 = 3.4 nM) exhibited good activity compared to sorafenib (IC50 = 3.12 nM). Furthermore, compound 19a disrupted the HepG2 cell cycle by arresting the G2/M phase. Also, marked increase in the percentage apoptotic cells was achieved by compound 19a. The induced apoptotic effect of compound 19a in HepG2 cells was assured by increased pro‐apoptotic marker (Bax) expression by 2.33-fold and decreased anti‐apoptotic (Bcl‐2) expression by 1.88-fold, resulting in an elevation of the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio in HepG2 cells. Comparing to the control cells, compound 19a induced an increase in expression of cleaved caspase-3 and caspase-9 by 2.44- and 2.69-fold, respectively. Finally, the binding modes of the target derivatives were investigated through docking studies against the proposed molecular target (VEGFR-2, PDB ID: 2OH4).
