Synthesis, characterization of poly L(+) lactic acid and its application in sustained release of isosorbide dinitrate.

Poly L(+) lactic acid (PLLA) has become crucial in the biomedical industry for various uses. The direct polycondensation method was used to prepare Poly L(+) Lactic Acid (PLLA). Different catalysts, including metal oxides and metal halides, were used to test the polymerization technique.

Synthesis, Characterization, and Anticancer Potency of Branched Poly (p-Hydroxy Styrene) Schiff-Bases.

A significant issue in cancer biology is finding anticancer therapies that effectively kill cancer cells. Through the use of several aldehydes, Schiff bases based on branched poly (p-hydroxy styrene) are created. The branched polymer is first chloroacetylated, then aminated with 1,4-phenylenediamine, and finally, aldehydes are reacted with the aminated polymer to produce the Schiff base compounds.

New functionalized mercaptoundecahydrododecaborate derivatives for potential application in boron neutron capture therapy: synthesis, characterization and dynamic visualization in cells.

A series of mercaptoundecahydrododecaborate (B12H11SH(2-), BSH) bearing mono- and dicarboxyalkyl derivatives was prepared, characterized, and their reactivity towards amidation and esterification in DMF was evaluated. Symmetrical alkylation of BSH was achieved by treatment with primary haloalkyl carboxylic acids in aqueous acetonitrile to produce S,S-bis(carboxyalkyl)sulfonium-undecahydro-closo-dodecaborate tetramethylammonium salts. Unsymmetrically substituted sulfonium salts were obtained through a similar treatment of cyanoethylthioether-undecahydro-closo-dodecaborate tetramethylammonium salt with haloalkyl carboxylic acid.

Synthesis and antimicrobial activities of a novel series of heterocyclic α-aminophosphonates.

Two series of novel α-aminophosphonates having heterocyclic moieties were synthesized in high yields. The structures of the newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by their elemental analyses, IR, (1)H NMR and MS spectral data. These compounds were screened for their antibacterial activities against Escherichia coli (NCIM2065) as a Gram-negative bacterium, Bacillus subtilis (PC1219) and Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC25292) as Gram-positive bacteria, and Candida albicans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae as fungi.

Synthesis, antimicrobial and anticancer activities of a novel series of diphenyl 1-(pyridin-3-yl)ethylphosphonates.

A novel series of diphenyl 1-(arylamino)-1-(pyridin-3-yl)ethylphosphonates 1-5 was obtained in high yields from reactions of 3-acetyl pyridine with aromatic amines and triphenylphosphite in the presence of lithium perchlorate as a catalyst. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by IR, (1)H NMR spectral data and microanalyses. Compounds 1-5 showed high antimicrobial activities against Escherichia coli (NCIM2065) as a Gram-negative bacterium, Bacillus subtilis (PC1219) and Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC25292) as Gram-positive bacteria and Candidaalbicans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae as fungi, at low concentrations (10-100 μg/mL).
