Abstract
Leading phytopathological research is focused on managing seed-borne pathogens of rice through the utilization of engineered nanomaterials. Herein, blue laser-induced topo-morphologically nano-advanced copper salicylates (Cu-SA) (Cu/SA in 1:1 and 1:2 ratio) were prepared and evaluated for their augmented antifungal potential along seed invigoration effects in contrast to their prepared sonicated formulations. Laser disintegration on the Cu-SA (Cu/SA in 1:1 and 1:2 ratio) was achieved with high degree of success and precision using blue laser, which yielded uniformly distributed spherical nanoparticles with a narrow size distribution and better crystallinity than aqua-dispersed sonicated formulations. In vitro antifungal evaluation against seed-borne fungi of rice viz. Fusarium verticillioides and Fusarium fujikuroi revealed multiple times the augmented potential of laser-disintegrated nanoformulations (l-CuSA) than sonicated (s-CuSA) and bulk samples. Laser-induced nano-sodium bis(2-oxobenzoato)cuprate (II) (l-CuSA2) with Cu/SA in 1:2 ratio was the best to inhibit the in vitro fungal growth. Ultra-micrographs and fungal double-staining assay further rationalized the membrane disruption as the mode of action for the fungitoxicity. Nanopriming of fungal infested rice seeds with l-CuSA2 at 2500 μg/mL for 8 h showed the maximum reduction of seed rot (80.43%) and seedling blight (63.15%) with respect to control (untreated). The seed-invigorating factors of l-CuSA2 nanoprimed seeds were enhanced to maximum extent and showed the highest per cent germination (35.29%), shoot length (11.42%), root length (21.14%), dry weight (75.43%) and vigour index (81.04%) over the control. Inclusively, the seed nanopriming with l-CuSA2 proved as agro-compatible hypo-toxic semi natural nanoplatform for sustainable agriculture.

Abstract
In the title complex salt, [Pd(C10H8N2)(C12H12N2O2)](CF3SO3)2, the palladium(II) atom is fourfold coordinated by two chelating ligands, 2,2'-bi-pyridine and 4,4'-dimeth-oxy-2,2'-bi-pyridine, in a distorted square-planar environment. In the crystal, weak π-π stacking inter-actions between the 2,2'-bi-pyridine rings [centroid-to-centroid distances = 3.8984 (19) Å] and between the 4,4'-dimeth-oxy-2,2'-bi-pyridine rings [centroid-to-centroid distances = 3.747 (18) Å] contribute to the alignment of the complex cations in columns parallel to the b-axis direction.

Chemical Characterization and Biological Evaluation of New Cobalt(II) Complexes with Bioactive Ligands, 2-Picolinehydroxamic Acid and Reduced Schiff Base N-(2-Hydroxybenzyl)alanine, in Terms of DNA Binding and Antimicrobial Activity. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2021; 14:ph14121254. [PMID: 34959656 PMCID: PMC8706952 DOI: 10.3390/ph14121254] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2021] [Revised: 11/29/2021] [Accepted: 11/30/2021] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Five new heteroligand cobalt(II) complexes with 2-picolinehydroxamic acid and reduced Schiff base, N-(2-hydroxybenzyl)alanine, were formed in an aqueous solution over a wide pH range. The coordination properties of ligands towards the metal ion were determined using a pH-metric method, and then the speciation model was confirmed by UV–Vis studies. A stacking interaction between the Schiff base phenol ring and the 2-picolinehydroxamic acid pyridine ring was found to improve the stability of the heteroligand species, indicating more effective coordination in mixed-ligand complexes than in their respective binary systems. The antimicrobial properties of heteroligand complexes were determined against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, as well as fungal strains. The formulation demonstrated the highest bacteriostatic and bactericidal activity (3.65 mM) against two strains of Gram-negative Helicobacter pylori bacteria and towards Candida albicans and Candida glabrata; this is important due to the potential co-existence of these microorganisms in the gastric milieu and their role in the development of gastritis. The binary complexes in the cobalt(II)—2-picolinehydroxamic acid system and 2-picolinehydroxamic acid were not cytotoxic against L929 mouse fibroblasts, neither freshly prepared solutions or after two weeks’ storage. By comparison, the heteroligand complexes within the range 0.91–3.65 mM diminished the metabolic activity of L929 cells, which was correlated with increased damage to cell nuclei. The concentration of the heteroligand species increased over time; therefore, the complexes stored for two weeks exhibited stronger anticellular toxicity than the freshly prepared samples. The complexes formed in an aqueous solution under physiological pH effectively bound to calf thymus DNA in an intercalative manner. This DNA-binding ability may underpin the antimicrobial/antifungal activity of the heteroligand complexes and their ability to downregulate the growth of eukaryotic cells.

Abstract
A series of new 5-aryl-2,2'-bipyridines and their (polyfluoro)salicylate complexes of Cu(II), Co(II) and Mn(II) were synthesized. Their antimicrobial activity was evaluated in vitro against six strains of Trichophytons, E. floccosum, M. canis, C. ablicans and Gram-negative bacteria N. gonorrhoeae. Among azo-ligands, Ph-bipy and Tol-bipy showed promising antifungal activity (minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC)<0.8-27 μM). Their antifungal action was found can be realized via binding Fe(III) ions. Tol-bipy suppressed growth of Gram-positive bacteria S. aureus, S. aureus MRSA and their monospecies biofilms (MIC 6-16 μM). Using molecular docking, the anti-staphylococcal action mechanism based on the inhibition of S. aureus DNA gyrase GyrB was proposed for the lead compounds. Among metal complexes, Cu(II) and Mn(II) complexes based on tetrafluorosalicylic acid and Tol-bipy or Ph-bipy had the high antifungal activity (MIC<0.24-32 μM). Mn(SalF4 -2H)2 (Tol-bipy)2 ] suppressed the growth of seven Candida strains at MIC 12-24 μM. [Cu(Sal-2H)(Ph-bipy)] and [Cu(SalF3 -2H)(Ph-bipy)2 ] showed the promising anti-gonorrhoeae activity (MIC 4.2-5.2 μM). (Cu(SalFn -2H)(Tol-bipy)2 ], [Cu(SalF4 -2H)(Ph-bipy)2 ] and [Cu(SalF3 -2H)(Ph-bipy)2 ]) were found active against the bacteria of S. aureus, S. aureus MRSA and their biofilms (MIC 2.4-41.4 μM). The most active compounds were tested for toxicity in vitro against human embryonic kidney (HEK-293) cells and in vivo experiments with CD-1 mice.

Abstract
Abstract
Cyclic and polycyclic compounds containing moieties such as imidazole, pyrazole, isoxazole, thiazoline, oxazine, indole, benzothiazole and benzoxazole benzimidazole are prized molecules because of the various pharmaceutical properties that they display. This led Prof. Landor and co-workers to engage in the synthesis of several of them such as alkylimidazolenes, oxazolines, thiazolines, pyrimidopyrimidines, pyridylpyrazoles, benzoxazines, quinolines, pyrimidobenzimidazoles and pyrimidobenzothiazolones. This review covers the synthesis of biologically active heterocyclic compounds by the Michael addition and the double Michael addition of various amines and diamines on allenic nitriles, acetylenic nitriles, hydroxyacetylenic nitriles, acetylenic acids and acetylenic aldehydes. The heterocycles were obtained in one step reaction and in most cases, did not give side products. A brief discussion on the biological activities of some heterocycles is also provided.
