Synthesis, Structure, Biological Activity, and Luminescence Properties of a "Butterfly"-Type Silver Cluster with 3-Benzyl-4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazol-5-thiol.

A new silver(I) cluster [AgL(Py)(Pype)]·4Py·11HO () with 3-benzyl-4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazol-5-thiol (L) was synthesized via the direct reaction of AgNO and L in MeOH, followed by recrystallization from a pyridine-piperidine mixture. The compound was isolated in a monocrystal form and its crystal structure was determined via single crystal X-ray diffraction. The complex forms a "butterfly" cluster with triazol-5-thioles.

Novel Derivatives of Quinoxaline-2-carboxylic Acid 1,4-Dioxides as Antimycobacterial Agents: Mechanistic Studies and Therapeutic Potential.

The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that tuberculosis (TB) is one of the top 10 leading causes of global mortality. The increasing incidence of multidrug-resistant TB highlights the urgent need for an intensified quest to discover innovative anti-TB medications In this study, we investigated four new derivatives from the quinoxaline-2-carboxylic acid 1,4-dioxide class. New 3-methylquinoxaline 1,4-dioxides with a variation in substituents at positions 2 and 6(7) were synthesized via nucleophilic aromatic substitution with amines and assessed against a spp.

Kanamycin and Ofloxacin Activate the Intrinsic Resistance to Multiple Antibiotics in .

Drug resistance (DR) in is the main problem in fighting tuberculosis (TB). This pathogenic bacterium has several types of DR implementation: acquired and intrinsic DR. Recent studies have shown that exposure to various antibiotics activates multiple genes, including genes responsible for intrinsic DR.

What are the prospects for using complexes of copper(ii) and zinc(ii) to suppress the vital activity of ?

New complexes of zinc(ii) and copper(ii) with 2-furoic acid (Hfur), acetic acids and N-donor ligands with the compositions [Zn(fur)] (1), [Zn(fur)(NHpy)] (2, NHpy = 3-aminopyridine), [Zn(fur)(neoc)] (3, neoc = 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenantroline), [Zn(OAc)(neoc)] (4, OAc = acetat-anion), and [Cu(fur)(neoc)(HO)] (5) were synthesized. The structures of the compounds were established by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Complexes 1 and 2 are binuclear; whereas 3-5 are mononuclear.

Synthesis and Characterization of Novel 2-Acyl-3-trifluoromethylquinoxaline 1,4-Dioxides as Potential Antimicrobial Agents.

The emergence of drug resistance in pathogens leads to a loss of effectiveness of antimicrobials and complicates the treatment of bacterial infections. Quinoxaline 1,4-dioxides represent a prospective scaffold for search of new compounds with improved chemotherapeutic characteristics. Novel 2-acyl-3-trifluoromethylquinoxaline 1,4-dioxides with alteration of substituents at position 2 and 6 were synthesized via nucleophilic substitution with piperazine moiety and evaluated against a broad panel of bacteria and fungi by measuring their minimal inhibitory concentrations.
