Humans suffer from various diseases that require more specific drugs to target them. Among the different potent agents, s serve as good antibacterial agents; however, s are resistant to such antibiotics. The present study was designed to prepare efficient inhibitor amides (12-15) from inexpensive, easily accessible, and bioactive precursors; Morita Baylis Hillman (MBH) adducts (5-8).

These nanoparticles due to their smaller size could be very effective as they can improve the antibacterial activity through lysis of bacterial cell wall. In the present research work, ZnO, MgO, NiO, AlO nanoparticles, and MgNiO, and AlZnO composite oxides were synthesized by green method from Ocimum basilicum leaves extract.

The composites of PMMA were prepared with AlI by changing the concentration of the AlI additive from 2% to 10% (/). The PMMA composites with AlI were characterized by TGA, DTG, SEM, FTIR, HBT, and Py-GC-MS techniques.

The methanolic extract was further subjected to synthesize Au nanoparticles. The synthesized nanoparticles were confirmed by UV-Vis through the appearance of a peak at 550 nm which correspond to the existence of Au nanoparticles.

Density functional theory calculations were performed at B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) to gain geometric insight of the compound. Conformational analyses have been performed around three important dihedral angles to explore the lowest energy structure and conformer.

A new isoflavone 7-hydroxy 3'-methoxyisoflavone (1) is isolated from the seeds of Indigofera heterantha. The structure of this new compound was established using spectroscopic techniques such as ID, 2D NMR, and mass spectrometry. Density functional theory calculations are carried out for the first time for geometric, electronic and spectroscopic properties of 1 (isoflavone).
