The current work offers a rigorous way for the microwave-assisted synthesis of N and S doped carbon quantum dots (QDs). The latter are deemed highly sensitive and selective fluorescence sensors that were widely investigated in pharmaceutical analysis. Quenching of luminescence of the prepared QDs in lab fabricated sensor at λ emission = 418 nm after excitation at 370 nm was implemented to quantify the anti-HCV drug Ledipasvir (LDP). LDP showed a linear response within the dynamic range of 1-40 μM. The calculated LDP detection and quantification limits were 313.06 and 948.67 nM, respectively. Besides the analysis of LDP in bulk and commercial dosage form, the scope of application extended to evaluate the effect of the nutraceutical silymarin (liver support) on the excretion of LDP in rat feces. The compliance with the green and white analytical chemistry fundamentals is comprehensively investigated and compared with selected versatile reported procedures. Numerous prevalent metrics, namely, analytical eco-scale, AGREE, RGB12, RGB fast, BAGI, and complex GAPI, were employed. Our developed fluorometric procedure demonstrated great sensitivity, selectivity, and functionality that outperformed other sophisticated platforms. Thus, the utility of the depicted procedure in pharmaceutical analysis and studying pharmacokinetics aspects is profoundly proven.

A series of 2- and 3-methoxyphenylpiperazine derivatives in combination with a 2-hydroxypropoxy linker and coumarins containing various substituents was synthesized and evaluated for antidepressant-like activity. Microwave-assisted synthesis was used, and the structures of all compounds were confirmed by H, C NMR, and HRMS spectrometry. The affinity toward the 5-HT and 5-HT receptors was determined using radioligand binding assays and analyzed by molecular docking studies.

The so far unattended version of the Hirao reaction involving the coupling of the less reactive chloroarenes with >P(O)H reagents, such as diarylphosphine oxides, diethyl phosphite, and ethyl phenyl--phosphinate, was investigated in detail using Pd(OAc) as the catalyst precursor, and applying some excess of the P-reagent to provide the ligand via its trivalent tautomeric (>P-OH) form. In the presence of triethylamine, no P-C coupling took place, meaning that there was a need for a stronger base, an alkali carbonate. The solvent had a significant effect on the efficiency of the Hirao reaction.

With an ultrahigh aspect ratio and a similar chemical composition to the biomineral in bone and tooth, ultralong hydroxyapatite nanowires (UHAPNWs) exhibit a meritorious combination of high flexibility, excellent mechanical performance, high biocompatibility, and bioactivity. Despite these exciting merits, the rapid and green synthesis of UHAPNWs remains challenging. In this work, we have developed an environment-friendly, rapid, and highly efficient synthesis of ultrathin UHAPNWs by the microwave-assisted calcium oleate precursor hydrothermal method using biogenic creatine phosphate as the bio-phosphorus source.

Targeted protein degradation (TPD) is revolutionizing drug discovery, but PROTAC synthesis remains challenging due to multi-step synthesis and slow linker installation SAr on 4-fluorothalidomide. Here, we optimize a microwave-assisted synthesis (MAS) of pomalidomide building blocks, achieving high yields within 15 min - boosting yield by at least 14% at gram scale without the need for purification. Unlike conventional oil bath heating and overnight reactions, MAS streamlines degrader development.
