Synthesis and antibacterial evaluation of anziaic acid and its analogues as topoisomerase i inhibitors

Naturally occurring anziaic acid has very recently been reported as a topoisomerase I inhibitor with antibacterial activity. Herein total synthesis of anziaic acid and its structural analogues is described and the preliminary structure-activity relationship (SAR) has been developed based on topoisomerase inhibition and whole cell antibacterial activity.

Liquid crystalline and nonlinear optical properties of bent-shaped compounds derived from 3,4′-biphenylene

The synthesis of different bent-core molecules derived from 3,4′-biphenylene bearing azo, azoxy, imine or ester linkages in their lateral structures is reported. Structure-activity relationships for their liquid crystalline behaviour are discussed. SmCP, USmCP and Colob mesophases are found depending on the type and number of these connecting units. The sequence ester ≈ azoxy > imine > azo can be proposed for the mesophase range, with significant differences observed in terms of mesopahase stabilization. SHG studies on these compounds give nonlinear coefficients in the range of 1-8 pm V-1. The molecular origin for these values is analyzed semi-quantitatively. It was concluded that the SHG performance of bent-core mesogens in general can still be increased substantially. An approach to improve the properties of these materials is briefly outlined.

Silicone-containing derivatives of salicylic acid which have desquamating properties

The invention relates to novel compounds of the organosiloxane and organosilane type, bearing at least one function derived from salicylic acid. These novel products have, in particular, desquamating and/or anti-aging properties and may be used in topical
