La(FeCuMnMgTi)O3 High-Entropy Oxide Nanoparticles as Highly Efficient Catalysts for Solvent-Free Aerobic Oxidation of Benzyl Alcohol

In this work, a solid-state method for the synthesis of perovskite La(FeCuMnMgTi)O3 high-entropy oxide (HEO) nanoparticles is detailed. Additionally, the high performance of these nanoparticles as catalysts in the aerobic and solvent-free oxidation of benzyl alcohol is demonstrated. The structural features of HEO nanoparticles are studied by X-ray diffraction and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The La(FeCuMnMgTi)O3 nanoparticles demonstrate excellent benzyl alcohol conversion rates and selectivity for benzaldehyde, reaching 10.6% conversion and 52.8% selectivity after reaction for only 4 h and ≤75.6% conversion after 24 h. In addition, the as-prepared HEO catalyst displays robust stability in benzyl alcohol oxidation. Density functional theory calculations demonstrate that the adsorption energy of benzaldehyde on the HEO surface is lower than that of the benzoic acid. This, in turn, hinders the gradual conversion of benzaldehyde to benzoic acid on the surface of HEO and retains benzaldehyde as the main product.

Design, Synthesis, SAR, Pharmacokinetic Prediction of New 4-Quinolones as Anti-Microbial Agents

s of new 4-quinolone derivatives was synthesized by conventional heating method. For the synthesized compounds, we performed pharmacokinetic prediction, SAR and antimicrobial assay. The presence of halogen elements plays a key role in the biological activity that is clear by in vitro analysis. Target compounds exhibit moderate to significant activity near to standard marketed drugs like amoxycillin, chloramphenicol, ciprofloxacin, norfloxacin, griseofulvin, and nystatin.

Microwave-assisted synthesis of bioactive tetrahydropyrimidine derivatives as antidiabetic agents

Heterocyclic compounds as a magic bullet for diabetes mellitus: a review

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major metabolic disorder due to hyperglycemia, which is increasing all over the world. From the last two decades, the use of synthetic agents has risen due to their major involvement in curing of chronic diseases including DM. The core skeleton of drugs has been studied such as thiazolidinone, azole, chalcone, pyrrole and pyrimidine along with their derivatives. Diabetics assays have been performed in consideration of different enzymes such as α-glycosidase, α-amylase, and α-galactosidase against acarbose standard drug. The studied moieties were depicted in both models: in vivo as well as in vitro. Molecular docking of the studied compounds as antidiabetic molecules was performed with the help of Auto Dock and molecular operating environment (MOE) software. Amino acid residues Asp349, Arg312, Arg439, Asn241, Val303, Glu304, Phe158, His103, Lys422 and Thr207 that are present on the active sites of diabetic related enzymes showed interactions with ligand molecules. In this review data were organized for the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds through various routes along with their antidiabetic potential, and further studies such as pharmacokinetic and toxicology studies should be executed before going for clinical trials.
