The present study involves the synthesis of a new series of α-aminophosphonate derivatives in good yields with a simple workup the Kabachnik-Fields reaction using lithium perchlorate (LiClO) as a catalyst to facilitate the reaction. All the newly synthesized compounds were confirmed using various physical, spectroscopic, and analytical data, and the obtained results correlated with the proposed molecular structure. The antimicrobial activities of each compound were evaluated against different clinical isolates.

The present study involves the synthesis of a series of new imidazole-2-ones derivatives and their 2-thione analogs using conventional heating and the environmentally friendly benign technique, the microwave technique. Structure of the compounds was well elucidated by considering the data of both elemental and spectral analyses. The obtained data and theoretical values of the synthesized molecules correlated with the proposed molecular structure.

The present study involves synthesis a new series of α-aminophosphonates 2a-f and 4a-d derivatives in good yield with a simple workup via Kabachnik-Fields reaction in the presence of lithium perchlorate as Lewis acid catalyst. All the newly synthesized compounds were confirmed using various physical, spectroscopic, and analytical data. The in vitro anticancer activities of each compound were evaluated against colorectal carcinoma Colon cancer (HCT-116) and Epdermoid carcinoma (HEP2) and also Human lung fibroblast normal cell line (WI38) compared with Doxorubicin.

An efficient method has been developed for the synthesis of novel α-aminophosphonates (AAP) (3 a-m) through a one-pot three-component reaction of 1,3-disubstituted-1H-pyrazol-5-amine, aromatic aldehydes, and phosphite using lithium perchlorate as catalyst. All newly synthesized compounds were characterized via different spectroscopic techniques. The synthesized compounds' mode of action was investigated using molecular docking against the outer membrane protein A (OMPA) and exo-1,3-β-glucanase, with interpreting their pharmacokinetics aspects.

Microbial resistance is a big concern worldwide, making the development of new antimicrobial drugs difficult. The thiazole and pyrazole rings are important heterocyclic compounds utilized to produce a variety of antimicrobial medications. As a result, a series of new bis-thiazolyl-pyrazole derivatives 3, 4a-c, 5a, b, and 6a-c was synthesized by reacting bis hydrazonoyl bromide with several active methylene reagents in a one-pot reaction.

Fusarium root rot caused by Fusarium oxysporum is an aggressive disease-causing damping-off, root rot, and vascular wilt in all peas growing fields. The disease can cause 100% yield losses under favorable conditions. The present study aims to control Fusarium root rot using Trichoderma harzianum, Pseudomonas fluorescens, and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, singly or in combinations.

Microorganism technologies can provide a potential alternative to traditional methods of removing heavy metals to conserve agricultural soils. This study aimed to identify and characterize heavy metals-resistant bacteria (HM-RB) isolated from industry-affected soil and their desired impact as bioremediators of heavy metals-stressed spinach plants. Three of 135 isolates were selected based on a high level of resistance to heavy metals.

This study focused on two areas (Abu-Zaabal and El-Tal El-Kabir) of the Ismailia canal. The samples represented the effect of the factories' effluent discharge onto the canal. Physical characteristics (water temperature and pH) and chemical characteristics (total hardness, dissolved oxygen, biological oxygen demand and chemical oxygen demand) were measured to identify the water quality in the two areas of the Ismailia canal.
