Abstract: The leaching of two pesticides, cholantraniliprole (CAP) and bispyribac-sodium (BPS) in sandy clay loam soil (soil A) and sandy loam soil (soil B) were examined, by soil columns under laboratory conditions. In addition, the effect of adding 5% biochar and wheat straw to the soils on the leaching of CAP and BPS was studied. It is clear from the results that BPS is more leachable than CAP in all soil columns, and more leached to soil B. It was found that the addition of biochar and wheat straw has a significant effect on the movements of these pesticides and can be used to reduce the environmental impact. For CAP, 71 to 97% and 84 to 97% were recovered from the soil A columns and soil B columns, respectively, while for BPS, 94 to 99% were recovered from columns of soil A and soil B.

Abstract: Rhodanines are recognized as privileged heterocycles in medicinal chemistry. The main achievements include the development of drug-like molecules with numerous biological activities as well as approved drugs. The Furan nucleus is considered one of the promising heterocyclic cores in medicinal chemistry that showed numerous ranges of activity. The combination of several heterocycles in a one molecule commonly provides much more interest in the enhanced activity profile of its analogs than their parent separate constituents. Such conjugates are promising objects for modern medicinal chemistry. In this review paper recent advances in the synthesis and biological activities rhodanine-furan conjugates which its application in the different field of drug discovery.

Abstract: Molecular electron density theory has been performed with the B3LYP/6-31(d,p) method to study the [3+2] cycloaddition processes between azidobenzene and propionaldehyde, the reactivity indices, activation and reaction energies are computed. The reaction and activation energies indicate that this [3+2] cycloaddition reaction is regiospecific, in good agreement with the experimental results. ELF examination revealed that the mechanism of these cycloaddition reactions takes place in two steps. In addition, a docking approach was performed on the products investigated, and the interaction with the protein protease COVID-19 (PDB ID: 6LU7), the results confirm that the presence of triazole and isoxazole rings increases the affinity of these products.

Abstract: This work presents a comprehensive synthesis method for the development of a new hyperbranched unsaturated polyester resin (HUPR). The resin is synthesized by modifying dehydrated castor oil fatty acid (DCOFA) with methyl methacrylate (MMA) and styrene, dicyclopentadiene-maleate (DCPD-M), and trimethylol propane diallyl ether (TMPDE). The synthesis process involves the radical addition reaction of DCOFA with MMA and styrene, followed by the addition of DCPD-M and TMPDE to form a HUPR. The resulting resin exhibits enhanced properties, making it a promising candidate for car body putty in the polymer industry.

Abstract: New analogues of pulmonarin B were synthesized from (3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxyphenyl)acetic acid derivatives, and their antibacterial and antibiofilm activities against E. coli, S. aureus, and P. aeruginosa were evaluated. The antibacterial activity of synthesized ammonium salts against the methicillin-resistant strain of S. aureus 222 depends on the length of the alkyl chain. Bis-quaternary ammonium salt 5 demonstrated better activity against S. aureus 222, E. coli 311, and P. aeruginosa 449 compared to mono-alkylated derivatives. Analogues of pulmonarin B 5 and 4d reduced S. aureus 222 biofilm formation by 74.5% and 89.4%, respectively. In addition, compound 4c turned out to be the most active against the biofilm formation of P. aeruginosa 449 (biomass decreased by 39.8%).

Abstract: One significant and elegant method for creating β-amino alcohols, which are useful intermediates for the synthesis of many different natural and synthetic pharmaceutical compounds, is to open the rings of epoxides with amines. When sulfated tin oxide catalyst (2 mol%) is present, epoxides can open their rings and react with amines to produce corresponding β-amino alcohols in good to high yields under mild circumstances. Under clean circumstances and in a short amount of time, the reaction demonstrated high regioselectivity and functioned well with both aromatic and aliphatic amines at room temperature.

Abstract: This research introduces an eco-friendly green Reverse-Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography (RP-HPLC) method for detecting and quantifying meropenem trihydrate. Traditional methods use buffered solutions, gradient mobile phases, and longer retention times, but this method offers a rapid RP-HPLC technique with a C8 column and isocratic mobile phase (60% methanol, 40% ultra-pure water), eliminating the need for buffers and acetonitrile. It features a short 2.1-minute retention time and a high r² value of 0.9995. It delivers accuracy (101.1-102.3%) and precision (RSD ≤ 2%), coupled with low LOD and LOQ values of 1.72 and 5.20 µg/ml. Aqueous dilution simplifies sample preparation, reducing degradation and interference. The method is compared with an HPTLC method, showing an extended linear range (6.25-200 µg/ml for HPLC, 7.81-62.5 µg/ml for TLC) and high sensitivity, making it significant for meropenem trihydrate quality control in bulk and dosage forms.

Abstract: The present investigation provides a unique, simple, selective and efficient method for the electrochemical reduction of aromatic nitro groups into amines using chitosan-hydrogen iodide salt supported graphite electrode. 3:1 tetrabutyl ammonium chloride and acetic acid mixture was used as the medium for electrolytic process and a constant voltage of 5 V applied between the modified electrodes. The reaction was found to be selective and further reduction of amines was not observed. The purity of the products was checked with HPLC and characterized using spectroscopic tools. The electrochemical synthesis resulted in moderate to good yields of amino compounds which were higher than the reduction using conventional graphite electrodes. Quaternary ammonium chloride behaved as supporting electrolyte during synthesis and the reaction did not progress in the absence of acetic acid. The redox characteristic of the process was studied by cyclic voltammetry of the reaction mixture.

Abstract: This investigation demonstrates the successful synthesis of well-crystallized pristine and Ag-doped BiFeO₃ microspheres using flash auto combustion technology. The effects of Ag doping on the morphology and microstructural characteristics were thoroughly examined through SEM, EDS, and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies. Gas sensing experiments were performed to evaluate the response of the synthesized materials to NO gas. The results revealed a remarkable enhancement in the gas sensing capabilities of 5% wt Ag-doped BiFeO₃ compared to pure BiFeO3. Specifically, the gas response towards NO was found to be 2.4 times higher for Ag-doped BiFeO3. This significant improvement can be attributed to the presence of Ag atoms within the lattice structure, which not only increased the density of holes in the material but also created additional gas molecule adsorption sites. Furthermore, the Ag dopant exhibited a catalytic effect, contributing to the excellent gas sensor performance of the material. These findings hold great promise for the development of highly sensitive and efficient gas sensors, particularly in applications where the detection of low concentrations of NO is crucial. The utilization of flash auto combustion technology in the synthesis process offers a viable route for scalable production of advanced gas sensing materials with enhanced performance.

Abstract: The effect of biochar, compost, peat and wheat straw at 1 and 5% on adsorption isotherm of chlorantraniliprole, dinotefuran, bispyribac-sodium, and metribuzin was studied in clay loam soil and sandy loam soil. Biochar, compost, peat and wheat straw (at a rate of 1 % in soil) improved the adsorption capacity of chlorantraniliprole and metribuzin in sandy loam soil. The sorption coefficients are higher for chlorantraniliprole and metribuzin whereas lower for dinotefuran and bispyribac-sodium in amended soil compared to unamended sandy loam soil. There is not a clear direct correlation between Freundlich parameters as well as Kd or Koc and type of organic amendment. The sorption of all tested pesticides on biochar was increased, whereas on compost was decreased. The order of pesticides sorption in soils and different organic amendments is generally inversely proportional to their aqueous solubilites. Adsorption of chlorantraniliprole increases on the sandy loam soil amendment at the rate of 1% in the following order: peat > compost > biochar > original soil. Also, the magnitude of adsorption on soil A amendment at the rate of 5% can be arranged for dinotefuran in the order; peat > biochar > compost > original soil and for bispyribac-sodium and metribuzin peat = wheat straw > biochar > original soil.

Abstract: In the present study, we have prepared two phenyl ring substituted sulfanilamide bearing acrylamide linking groups. The four derivatives (C1-C4) were prepared by changing the left n-alkoxy terminal group. The liquid crystalline properties of the synthesized sulfanilamide-based compounds were investigated using POM and DSC studies. All four materials exhibit nematic liquid crystalline properties during both heating and cooling. They also demonstrate a broad temperature range and thermal stability. Further, we have studied the structure-property relationship to gain a better understanding of the effect of the linking group and variable alkoxy tail group on mesomorphic behavior. The results indicate that thermal stability, mesophase temperature range, and liquid crystalline properties depend on the linking group and variable alkyl chain length.

Abstract: The present study was conducted to evaluate the feasibility of apatitic tricalcium phosphate with a Ca/P ratio of 1.50 for the adsorption of phenol and tyrosine from aqueous solutions. The adsorbent was synthesized at room temperature using an aqueous double decomposition method and characterized through physicochemical methods. Batch adsorption studies were conducted as a function of contact time, initial adsorbate concentration, temperature, and pH. The adsorption kinetics of phenol and tyrosine were well fitted to the pseudo-second-order model. The maximum adsorption capacity was found to be 5.56 mg/g for phenol and 9.65 for tyrosine mg/g at 298 K. The adsorption of phenol and tyrosine was well explained using the Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin, and Dubinin-Radushkevick models. The Langmuir model is the most suitable, with a maximum monolayer adsorption capacity of 7.32 mg/g for phenol and 11.43 mg/g for tyrosine at 298 K. The thermodynamic parameters indicate that the adsorption process is favorable, spontaneous, exothermic, and controlled by physisorption with electrostatic interactions between compounds containing the phenolic group and apatite. The results of this study have demonstrated the potential utility of apatitic tricalcium phosphate, which could be developed into a viable technology for the adsorption of compounds containing the phenolic group from aqueous solutions.

Abstract: An isocratic HPLC technique was exploited and validated for the quick simultaneous separation and measurement of cefotaxime and paracetamol in vials dosage forms, with a total analysis time of 3 minutes. The process of separation was carried out on a Thermo Scientific® Venusil XBPC18 (L) (5µm, 4.6x250 mm) using a mobile phase of ACN: distilled water (70:30, v/v) at the ambient temperature. The flow rate used in the experiment was 1 mL/min, and the highest level of absorption was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography with photodiode array detection (HPLC-PDA) employing a PDA detector set at a wavelength of 255 nm. The established retention times for cefotaxime and paracetamol were 1.79 and 2.97 minutes, respectively, suggesting reduced analysis duration. The observed limits of detection for ceftaxime and paracetamol were 4.2×10^-5 and 1.2×10^-5 µg/mL, respectively, indicating a significant level of sensitivity in the approach. The approach was subsequently verified in accordance with the requirements set out by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the quantification of medicines in vial dosage form.
