Abstract
Schiff bases of existing antimicrobial drugs are an area, which is still to be comprehensively explored to improve drug efficiency against consistently resisting bacterial species. In this study, we have targeted a new and eco-friendly method of condensation reaction that allows the "green synthesis" as well as improved biological efficacy. The transition metal complexes of cefpodoxime with well-enhanced biological activities were synthesized. The condensation reaction product of cefpodoxime and vanillin was further reacted with suitable metal salts of [Mn (II), Cu (II), Fe (II), Zn (II), and Ni (II)] with 1:2 molar ratio (metal: ligand). The characterization of all the products were carried out by using UV-Visible, elemental analyzer, FTIR, 1H-NMR, ICP-OES, and LC-MS. Electronic data obtained by UV-Visible proved the octahedral geometry of metal complexes. The biological activities Schiff base ligand and its transition metal complexes were tested by using in-vitro anti-bacterial analysis against various Gram-negative, as well as Gram-positive bacterial strains. Proteinase and protein denaturation inhibition assays were utilized to evaluate the products in-vitro anti-inflammatory activities. The in vitro antioxidant activity of the ligand and its complexes was evaluated by utilizing the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) in-vitro method. The final results proved metal complexes to be more effective against bacterial microorganisms as compared to respective parent drug as well as their free ligands. Patch Dock, a molecular docking tool, was used to dock complexes 1a-5e with the crystal structure of GlcN-6-P synthase (ID: 1MOQ). According to the docking results, complex 2b exhibited a highest score (8,882; ACE = -580.43 kcal/mol) that is well correlated with a high inhibition as compared to other complexes which corresponds to the antibacterial screening outcomes.

Abstract
Schiff bases have remarkable anticancer activity and are used for glioma therapy. However, the poor water solubility/dispersibility limits their therapeutic potential in biological systems. To address this issue, carbon dots (CDs) have been utilized to enhance the dispersibility in water and biological efficacy of Schiff bases. The amino groups on the surface of CDs were conjugated effectively with the aldehyde group of terephthalaldehyde to form novel CD-based Schiff bases (CDSBs). The results of the MTT assays demonstrate that CDSBs have significant anticancer activity in glioma GL261 cells and U251 cells, with IC50 values of 17.9 μg mL-1 and 14.9 μg mL-1, respectively. CDSBs have also been found to have good biocompatibility with normal glial cells. The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in GL261 glioma cells showed that CDSBs, at a concentration of 44 μg mL-1, resulted in approximately 13 times higher intracellular ROS production than in the control group. These experiments offer evidence that CDSBs induce mitochondrial damage, leading to a reduction in mitochondrial membrane potential in GL261 cells. In particular, in this work, CDs serve not as carriers, but as an integral part of the anticancer drugs, which can expand the role of CDs in cancer treatment.

Li D, Chen X, Liu C, Tian J, Li F, Liu Y. Suppression of pyrite oxidation by co-depositing bio-inspired PropS-SH-tannic acid coatings for the source control acid mine drainage. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 862:160857. [PMID: 36521606 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.160857] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2022] [Revised: 11/13/2022] [Accepted: 12/07/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
In previous works, both tannic acid (TA) and organosilane-based passivators have been proven to possess good inhibition effects on pyrite oxidation, which could effectively prevent acid mine drainage (AMD) generation at the source. However, the hydrophilicity of TA passivation film and the complex coating process of organosilane-based passivators (high temperature conditions were required during the process carried out) may limit their further practical use. Therefore, to achieve the purpose of better coating treatment of pyrite under mild conditions, TA and γ-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane (PropS-SH) were introduced to synergistically passivate pyrite in this work. Electrochemistry tests and chemical leaching experiments both confirmed that PropS-SH-TA coated pyrite had better oxidation resistance than raw pyrite and single PropS-SH or TA coated pyrite. Additionally, the analyses of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) measurements and static water contact angle tests demonstrated that a scaly coating was formed on PropS-SH-TA coated pyrite surface, which may be the reason for the significant improvement of its surface hydrophobicity. Finally, the study on the film-forming mechanism of PropS-SH-TA composite passivator displayed that the benzoquinone derivatives formed by TA could copolymerize with PropS-SH through Michael addition or Schiff base reaction, which constructed a dense hydrophobic film on pyrite surface. The newly formed composite film could provide a better oxidation barrier for pyrite based on TA passivation film.

Abstract
Metal complexes play a crucial role in pharmaceutical sciences owing to their wide and significant activities. Schiff bases (SBs) are multifaceted pharmacophores capable of forming chelating complexes with various metals in different oxidation states. Complexes with SBs are extensively studied for their numerous advantages, including low cost and simple synthetic strategies. They have been reported to possess a variety of biological activities, including antimicrobial, anticancer, antioxidant, antimalarial, analgesic, antiviral, antipyretic, and antidiabetic ones. This review summarizes the most recent studies on the antimicrobial and antiproliferative activities of SBs-metal complexes. Moreover, recent studies regarding mononuclear and binuclear complexes with SBs are described, including antioxidant, antidiabetic, antimalarial, antileishmanial, anti-Alzheimer, and catecholase activities.
