PI3Kδ and mTOR dual inhibitors: Design, synthesis and anticancer evaluation of 3-substituted aminomethylquinoline analogues.

Phosphatidylinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) and the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) have recently been identified as potential cancer targets. In our work, a new family of quinoline analogues was designed, developed, and evaluated as dual inhibitors of PI3Kδ/mTOR. The preliminary biological activity analysis led to the discovery of the lead compounds 5h and 5e.

A novel class of pyrazole analogues as aurora kinase A inhibitor: design, synthesis, and anticancer evaluation.

Pyrazole, as a small molecule, was discovered for higher cytotoxicity and affinity towards Aurora-A kinase. Based on these facts, a novel pyrazole substituted at the 4 position was designed, synthesized, and evaluated against MCF-7, MDA-MB-23, and Vero (non-cancerous kidney cell) cell lines. Compounds5hand5eexhibited greater cytotoxicity in the series against MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231, with GI values of 0.

[Fe(CN)NO]-Based MOIFs for Adsorption of Organic Pollutants and as a Self-Rotatory Motor.

Herein, we report metal-organic ionic frameworks (MOIFs; an ionic product of an anionic complex and an organic cationic head group) for the adsorption of toxic organic pollutants and as a self-rotatory motor. MOIFs were synthesized via the ion-exchange mechanism in water (without use of any toxic organic solvent) using Na[Fe(CN)NO] and [C HN(CH)] and characterized through small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) techniques. Thermal gravimetric (TGA/DTA) and differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) studies of MOIFs have informed their activation energy, enthalpies of crystallization/melting, and specific heat capacity (SHC), which have also been correlated with their structural properties.

From Synthesis to Biological Impact of Pd (II) Complexes: Synthesis, Characterization, and Antimicrobial and Scavenging Activity.

The Pd (II) complexes with a series of halosubstituted benzylamine ligands (BLs) have been synthesized and characterized with different spectroscopic technique such as FTIR, UV/Vis, LCMS, (1)H, and (13)C NMR. Their molecular sustainability in different solvents such as DMSO, DMSO : H2O, and DMSO : PBS at physiological condition (pH 7.2) was determined by UV/Vis spectrophotometer.

Biological Impact of Pd (II) Complexes: Synthesis, Spectral Characterization, In Vitro Anticancer, CT-DNA Binding, and Antioxidant Activities.

A new series of Pd (II) complexes of methyl substituted benzylamine ligands (BLs) has been synthesized and characterized via spectroscopic techniques such as UV/Vis. FTIR, LCMS, (1)H, and (13)C NMR. The UV/Vis study in DMSO, DMSO + water, and DMSO + PBS buffer (pH = 7.
