Acetic acid ethyl esters containing 5-oxo-[1,2,4]triazole ring (2) were synthesized by the condensation of compounds 1a-f with ethyl bromoacetate in basic media. The reaction of compounds 2a-f with hydrazine hydrate led to the formation of acid hydrazides (3a-f). The treatment of compounds 3 with two divers aromatic aldehydes resulted in the formation of arylidene hydrazides as cis-trans conformers (4a,c,e,f, 5a,e,f). The thiosemicarbazide derivatives (6a,c,d,f) were afforded by the reaction of corresponding compounds 3 with phenylisothiocyanate. The treatment of compounds 6a,c,d,f with sulfuric acidic caused the conversion of side-chain of compounds 6a,c,d,f into 1,3,4-thiadiazol ring; thus, compounds 7a,c,d,f were obtained. On the other hand, the cyclization of compounds 6a,c,d,f in the presence of 2 N NaOH resulted in the formation of compounds 8a,c,d,f containing two [1,2,4]triazole rings which are linked to each other via a methylene bridge. Compounds 4a, f, 5a, 7a, d, f, 8a and d have shown antimicrobial activity against one or more microorganism, but no antifungal activity has been observed against yeast like fungi. Also inhibitory effect on mycelial growth by compounds 4e, 7d and 8f has been observed. Compounds 4c and 5f were found to possess antitumor active towards breast cancer.

Metabolic syndrome-related diseases frequently involve disturbances in skeletal muscle lipid metabolism. The accumulation of lipid metabolites, lipid-induced mitochondrial stress in skeletal muscle cells, as well as the inflammation of adjacent adipose tissue, are associated with the development of insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction. Consequently, when antidiabetic medications are used to treat various chronic conditions related to hyperglycaemia, the impact on skeletal muscle lipid metabolism should not be overlooked.

Despite advancements in high-resolution screening techniques, the identification of novel perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) remains challenging without prior structural information. In view of this, we proposed and implemented a new data-driven algorithm to calculate spectral similarity among PFAS, facilitating the generation of molecular networks to screen for unknown compounds. Using this approach, 81 PFAS across 12 distinct classes were identified in soil samples collected near an industrial park in Shandong Province, China, including the first reported occurrence of 12 iodine-substituted PFAS.

The development of stable and tunable polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) is crucial for the advancement of organic optoelectronics. Conventional PACs, such as acenes, often suffer from poor stability due to photooxidation and oligomerization, which are linked to their frontier molecular orbital energy levels. To address these limitations, we designed and synthesized a new class of π-expanded indoloindolizines by merging indole and indolizine moieties into a single polycyclic framework.

Coral reefs are hotspots of marine biodiversity, which results in the synthesis of a wide variety of compounds with unique molecular scaffolds, and bioactivities, rendering reefs an ecosystem of interest. The chemodiversity stems from the intricate relationships between inhabitants of the reef, as the chemistry produced partakes in intra- and interspecies communication, settlement, nutrient acquisition, and defense. However, the coral reefs are declining at an unprecedented rate due to climate change, pollution, and increased incidence of pathogenic diseases.
