Green synthesis and anti-biofilm activities of 3,5-disubstituted isoxazoline/isoxazole-linked secondary sulfonamide derivatives on Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

The search for new classes of antibiotics is a real concern of public health due to the emergence of multi-resistant bacteria strains. We report herein the synthesis and characterization of a new series of 13 molecules combining isoxazoline/isoxazole sulfonamides and hydrazides motives. These molecules were obtained according to a costless eco-friendly procedure, and a one-pot three-step cascade synthesis under ultrasonic cavitation.

Green synthesis, characterization, and biochemical impacts of new bioactive isoxazoline-sulfonamides as potential insecticidal agents against the Sphodroxia maroccana Ley.

Background: Sphodroxia maroccana Ley is a pest of cork oak crops that damages the roots of seedlings and can severely impair cork oak regeneration. Since the banning of carbosulfan and chlorpyriphos, which were widely used against the larvae of Sphodroxia maroccana because of their harmful impact on the environment, until now there has been no pesticide against these pests. Therefore, it is particularly urgent to develop highly effective insecticidal molecules with novel scaffolds.
