Synthesis, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial evaluation of novel 1-acetyl-3,5-diaryl-4,5-dihydro (1H) pyrazole derivatives bearing urea, thiourea and sulfonamide moieties.

A series of novel 1-acetyl-3-(3,4-dimethoxypheny)-5-(4-(3-(arylureido/arylthioureido/arylsulfonamido) phenyl)-4,5-dihydropyrazole derivatives of biological interest have been prepared by sequential cyclization of 1-(4-nitrophenyl)-3-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-pro-2-ene-1 with hydrazine hydrate, reduction followed by reaction of resulting amine with different arylisocyanates or arylisothiocyanates or arylsulfonyl chlorides. All the synthesized compounds (1-32) have been screened for their pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α and IL-6) and antimicrobial activity (antibacterial and antifungal). Biological evaluation study showed, the compounds 4, 5, 9, 11, 14 and 16 found to have promising anti-inflammatory activity (up to 61-85% TNF-α and 76-93% IL-6 inhibitory activity) at concentration of 10 μM with reference to standard dexamethasone (76% TNF-α and 86% IL-6 inhibitory activity at 1 μM).

Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel piperazine derivatives of flavone as potent anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial agent.

A series of novel 6-methoxy-2-(piperazin-1-yl)-4H-chromen-4-one and 5,7-dimethoxy-2-(piperazin-1-ylmethyl)-4H-chromen-4-one derivatives of biological interest were prepared and screened for their pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α and IL-6) and antimicrobial activity (antibacterial and antifungal). Among all the compound screened (5a-j and 10k-t), the compounds 5c, 5g, 5h, 10l, 10m, 10n and 10r found to have promising anti-inflammatory activity (up to 65-87% TNF-α and 70-93% IL-6 inhibitory activity) at concentration of 10 μM with reference to standard dexamethasone (71% TNF-a and 84% IL-6 inhibitory activities at 1 μM) while the compounds 5b, 5i, 5j, 10s and 10t found to be potent antimicrobial agent showing even 2 to 2.5-fold more potency than that of standard ciprofloxacin and miconazole at the same MIC value of 10 μg/mL.

A novel pyrimidine derivatives with aryl urea, thiourea and sulfonamide moieties: synthesis, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial evaluation.

A series of novel 4-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenylamino-6-(4-(3-arylureiodo/arylthioureido/arylsulfonamido)-pyrimidine derivatives of biological interest were prepared by the sequential Suzuki cross coupling, acid amination, reduction followed by reaction of resulting amine with different arylisocyantes or arylisothiocyantes or arylsulfonyl chlorides. All the synthesized compounds (1-25) were screened for their pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α and IL-6) and antimicrobial activity (antibacterial and antifungal). Biological data revealed that among all the compounds screened, compounds 5, 6, 11, 12, 16 and 20 were found to have moderate to potent anti-inflammatory activity (up to 48-78% TNF-α and 56-96% IL-6 inhibitory activity) with reference to standard dexamethasone at 10 μM.

The novel 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one urea derivatives of N-aryl urea: synthesis, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antifungal activity evaluation.

A series of novel 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one urea derivatives of biological interest were prepared by sequential Bigineli's reaction, reduction followed by reaction of resulting amines with different arylisocynates. All the synthesized (1-23) compounds were screened against the pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α and IL-6) and antimicrobial activity (antibacterial and antifungal). Biological activity evaluation study reveled that among all the compounds screened, compounds 12 and 17 found to have promising anti-inflammatory activity (68-62% TNF-α and 92-86% IL-6 inhibitory activity at 10 μM).

A single, selective and simple validated method for simultaneous estimation of amiloride and hydrochlorothiazide in human plasma by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.

A single, simple and selective method for simultaneous estimation of amiloride and hydrochlorothiazide in human plasma was validated using triamterine and hydrochlorothiazide (13)C,d2 as internal standard. The compounds were separated on a reverse-phase column with an isocratic mobile phase consisting of 2 mm ammonium acetate pH 3.0 and acetonitrile (30:70, v/v) and detected by tandem mass spectrometry with positive/negative ion mode.

A simple, selective and rapid validated method for estimation of anastrazole in human plasma by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry and its application to bioequivalence study.

A rapid, simple and specific method for estimation of anastrazole in human plasma was validated using letrozole as internal standard. The analyte and internal standard were extracted from plasma using simple solid-phase extraction. The compound were separated on a reverse-phase column with an isocratic mobile phase consisting of 0.
