Production of benzazepine derivatives via four-component reaction of isatins: study of antioxidant activity.

In current research, benzazepine derivative is synthesized via a new process of four-component reaction of isatin or its derivatives, α-haloketones, activated acetylenic compounds, isoquinoline and potassium fluoride/clinoptilolite nanoparticles (KF/CP NPs) in acidic solution of HO in water at room temperature. Also, antioxidation property of some prepared benzazepines is investigated by employing trapping diphenyl-picrylhydrazine (DPPH) radical and ability of ferric reduction experiment. Among investigated compounds, compounds 5c have good results relative to BHT and TBHQ as standard antioxidant.

Immobilized TiO nanoparticles on carbon nanotubes: an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the synthesis of chromeno[]pyridine derivatives under ultrasonic irradiation.

A new protocol for the synthesis of chromeno[]pyridine derivatives is described a three-component reaction of 4-aminocoumarin, aromatic aldehydes and malononitrile catalyzed by TiO nanoparticles immobilized on carbon nanotubes (TiO-CNTs) as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst under ultrasonic irradiation in water. The sustainable and economic benefits of the protocol are the high yields of products, short reaction time, simple work-up procedure, and use of a non-toxic and reusable catalyst.

Quantification of Meloxicam in Human Plasma Using Ionic Liquid-Based Ultrasound-Assisted In Situ Solvent Formation Microextraction Followed by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography.

A robust extraction method against the variations of sample ionic strength viz. ionic liquid-based ultrasound-assisted in situ solvent formation microextraction (IL-UA-ISFME) was coupled for the first time with high-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV), and successfully used as a more sustainable approach for the determination of meloxicam (MEL) in human plasma. Herein, a hydrophobic IL (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate) was formed by adding a hydrophilic IL (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate) to aqueous sample solution containing an ion-exchange reagent (sodium hexafluorophosphate).

Synthesis and Antinociception Activities of Some Novel Derivatives of Phencyclidine with Substituted Aminobenzothiazoles.

Background: Phencyclidine (PCP) as well as the analogues has indicated several pharmacological behaviors like analgesic, anticonvulsant, antianxiety, antidepressant depending on the dose and species examined. They interact with some neurotransmitter systems in the central nervous system like particular affinity for PCP sites in NMDA receptors or dopamine uptake blocking or both.

Objective: Due to analgesic properties of aminobenzothiazoles family, piperidine ring of PCP was replaced with electron-donating and electron-withdrawing substituted aminobenzothiazoles (1-4) for obtaining new analogues (II-V) with more analgesic activities.

Ionic liquid phase microextraction combined with fluorescence spectrometry for preconcentration and quantitation of carvedilol in pharmaceutical preparations and biological media.

Background: Carvedilol belongs to a group of medicines termed non-selective beta-adrenergic blocking agents. In the presented approach, a practical and environmentally friendly microextraction method based on the application of ionic liquids (ILs) was followed by fluorescence spectrometry for trace determination of carvedilol in pharmaceutical and biological media.

Methods: A rapid and simple ionic liquid phase microextraction was utilized for preconcentration and extraction of carvedilol.

Removal of Co(II), Cu(II) and Pb(II) ions by polymer based 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate: thermodynamics and desorption studies.

Removal thermodynamics and desorption studies of some heavy metal ions such as Co(II), Cu(II) and Pb(II) by polymeric surfaces such as poly 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (PHEMA) and copolymer 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate with monomer methyl methacrylate P(MMA-HEMA) as adsorbent surfaces from aqueous single solution were investigated with respect to the changes in pH of solution, adsorbent composition, contact time and temperature in the individual aqueous solution. The linear correlation coefficients of Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms were obtained and the results revealed that the Langmuir isotherm fitted the experiment results better than Freundlich isotherm. Using the Langmuir model equation, the monolayer removal capacity of PHEMA surface was found to be 0.

Microwave-assisted solvent-free synthesis of Bis(dihydropyrimidinone)benzenes and evaluation of their cytotoxic activity.

An effective one-pot synthesis of bis(dihydropyrimidinonoe)benzenes using chlorotrimethylsilane (TMSCl) through Biginelli condensation reaction of terephthalic aldehyde, 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds and (thio)urea or guanidine under microwave irradiation conditions is described. Excellent yields of the products and simple work-up are attractive features of this green protocol. Then, the cytotoxic activities of these compounds were evaluated on five different human cancerous cell lines (Raji, HeLa, LS-180, SKOV-3 and MCF7).

Electrochemical synthesis of 4-(dihydroxyphenylthio)-2H-chromen-2-one derivatives.

The 4-(dihydroxyphenylthio)-2H-chromen-2-one derivatives have been synthesized by direct electrochemical oxidation of catechols in the presence of 4-mercaptocoumarin as a nucleophile in water/acetonitrile (50/50) solution, in a one-pot process, at carbon rod electrode, in an undivided cell and in constant current conditions, through an EC mechanism. The products are characterized by spectra data. Besides, the difference in electrochemical oxidation of catechol in the presence of 4-hydroxycoumarin and 4-mercaptocoumarin explained by computational structure, natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis and density functional theory (DFT: B3LYP/6-31G*//B3LYP/6-31G*) based methods, using the GAUSSIAN 98 package of programs.
