Aminopyridines belong to a class of compounds that are monoamino and diamino derivatives of pyridine. They work primarily by blocking voltage-gated potassium channels in a dose-dependent manner. Essential heterocycles used extensively in synthetic, natural products, and medicinal chemistry are aminopyridine and its derivatives.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFOcular drug-delivery is one of the most challenging areas owing to nature of ocular tissues. Various nanoformulations have been designed and investigated for drug-delivery to achieve high drug bioavailability. The major focus of these preparations available in market is to utilize nanomaterial as drug-carrier only, with less focus on developing functional-nanomaterials, which is a key knowledge gap in the field.

The review aims to explore the impact of different reinforcing agents on the techno-functional properties of WBF. The incorporation of reinforcing agents, such as polysaccharides, lipids, starch, chitosan, cellulose, essential oils, and hydrocolloid gums, plays a crucial role in shaping the techno-functional properties of WBF.

It earns its limelight from its application by coupling unreactive electrophilic substrates to synthesize a variety of carbon-carbon bonds with various hybridizations (sp, sp, and sp), late-stage functionalization, and bioactive molecules' synthesis. Reductive cross-coupling is challenging to bring selectivity but promising approach.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFA strong synthetic tool for many naturally occurring chemicals, polymers, and pharmaceutical substances is transition metal-catalyzed synthesis. A serious concern to human health is the emergence of bacterial resistance to a broad spectrum of antibacterial medications. The synthesis of chemical molecules that are potential antibacterial candidates is underway.
