New 1-benzimidazole-2-yl hydrazones with combined antiparasitic and antioxidant activity.

Parasitic infections, caused mainly by the species (), are widespread around the world and lead to morbidity and mortality in the population. Meanwhile, some studies have showed that these parasites induce oxidative stress in the infected host. With the aim of developing a class of compounds combining anthelmintic with antioxidant properties, a series of new benzimidazolyl-2-hydrazones 5a-l, bearing hydroxyl- and methoxy-groups, were synthesized.

Experimental and computational studies of the structure and vibrational spectra of 2-[5,5-dimethyl-3-(2-phenyl-vinil)-cyclohex-2-enylidene]-malononitrile.

The FTIR spectra (4000-100 cm(-1)) and Raman spectra (3500-30 cm(-1)) of 2-[5,5-dimethyl-3-(2-phenyl-vinil)-cyclohex-2-enylidene]-malononitrile in solid state were measured. In addition, the structure and harmonic vibrational frequencies of this molecule were theoretically evaluated using B3LYP density functional methods. The computed vibrational frequencies are used to determine the types of molecular motions associated with each of the experimental bands observed.

Experimental and computational studies of the structure and vibrational spectra of pyridinium-betaine of squaric acid.

The FTIR spectra of pyridinium-betaine of squaric acid in 4000-100 cm(-1) frequency region in solid state were measured. In addition, the structure and harmonic vibrational frequencies of this molecule were theoretically evaluated using restricted Hartree-Fock and B3LYP density functional methods. The computed vibrational frequencies are used to determine the types of molecular motions associated with each of the experimental bands observed.
