Density functional theory approach was used for the 4-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-1,5-benzodiazepine-2-thione compound to determine the mechanism of hydrazinolysis of 4-substituted 2,3-dihydro-1,5-benzodiazepine-2-thiones. Single-point calculations at the MP2/6-311+G(d,p)//B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) level were performed for the more accurate energy prediction. The solvent effect was taken into account by carrying out single-point calculations using the PCM methodology. The obtained results show that in the investigating mechanism the first step consists of the hydrazine molecule addition to the thiocarbonyl bond of the 4-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-1,5-benzodiazepine-2-thione following removal of H(2)S. Further addition of another hydrazine molecule to the azomethyne bond and cyclization with pyrazole ring formation occur, and then the diazepine ring-opening and the removal of hydrazine molecule proceed. Finally, imine-enamine tautomerization leads to 5-N-(2-aminophenyl-1-amino)-3-phenylpyrazole as a main product that is in agreement with the experimental observation. The cyclization step is a rate-determining step of this reaction.

In experimental studies, hydrazine hydrate is widely employed as a reducing agent for the conversion of graphene oxide to graphene. Herein, we conducted theoretical calculations using cluster models to investigate the adsorption behavior of hydrazine hydrate on the surface of graphene. The calculated adsorption energy reveals that hydrazine hydrate can physically bind to the graphene surface.

Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) are crucial in regulating various physiological processes in the body. The overexpression of isoforms human carbonic anhydrases (hCA) IX and hCA XII is linked to tumour progression. The selective inhibition of CA IX and CA XII isoforms can result in the development of better cancer treatment strategies.

In response to the escalating crisis of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), there is an urgent need to research and develop novel antibiotics. This study presents the synthesis and assessment of innovative 4-aminoquinoline-benzohydrazide-based molecular hybrids bearing aryl aldehydes () and substituted isatin warheads (), characterized using multispectroscopic techniques with high purity confirmed by HRMS. The compounds were evaluated against a panel of clinically relevant antibacterial strains including the Gram-positive , , and and a Gram-negative bacterial strain.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) has long proven to be a complex neurodegenerative disorder, with cholinergic dysfunction, oxidative stress, and neuroinflammation being just a few of its pathological features. The complexity of the disease requires a multitargeted treatment covering its many aspects. In the present investigation, an arylhydrazone derivative of 5-methoxyindole-2-carboxylic acid (5MeO), with in vitro strong antioxidant, neuroprotective and monoamine oxidase B-inhibiting effects, was studied in a scopolamine-induced Alzheimer-type dementia in rats.

To address this issue, we presented a simple, seedless method for synthesizing uniform HIF-Au NCs in an aqueous solution, which remarkably reduced the synthesis difficulty. Interestingly, the protonated NH which served as both the reducing and capping agent played a crucial role in modulating the kinetic growth of the HIF-Au NCs.
