Abstract
Because of the great pharmacological and industrial significance of 1,3,4-thiadiazole and its related compounds, researchers are still very interested in them. For this reason, in this study, we looked at ways to create new hybrid compounds containing carboxamide and 1,3,4-thiadiazole moieties. The thioxoacetamide derivatives used to make these compounds were reacted with various alkylated reagents to produce multiple S-alkyl groups. Additionally, these compounds were reacted with aldehydes to form novel derivatives known as 5-(substituent)-N-phenyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-carboxamide. Here, we used the agar well diffusion method to examine the antibacterial activity of all the produced compounds against a few pathogenic bacteria that were resistant to multiple drugs. Additionally, look into their capacity to lower inflammation through the use of bovine serum albumin in the protein denaturation procedure. The substances were characterized by spectral analysis (IR, 1HNMR, 13CNMR and Elemental Analysis), and efficient as antibacterial agents against all the tested bacterial strains, except for Escherichia coli. Compounds 4a and 8c showed the highest level of inhibition zone against Gram-positive bacteria (Staph. aureus, Bacillus subtilis) at concentration 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5 mg/ml compared with ciprofloxacin at the same concentrations. The results demonstrated that every compound has significant anti-inflammatory activity. At a concentration of 250 µg/ml, compounds 3a, 4c and 8c had the highest percentage inhibition of protein denaturation when (83.24%, 86.44% and 85.14%, respectively) compared to other compounds and diclofenac sodium as reference drug. Comparing compounds 4c and 8c to ciprofloxacin and diclofenac sodium, they showed powerful antibacterial and anti-inflammatory action. Furthermore, an investigation using molecular docking against DHPS from S. aureus (PDB ID: 6CLV) showed a strong connection with the intended protein and an elevated docking score, making it a prime candidate for antibiotics.

Abstract
A significant reason for developing innovative insecticidal active agents is the exponential rise in resistance to traditional chemical pesticides. Exploring new classes of insecticidal compounds with distinct mechanisms of action is one way to address this difficulty. So that, novel aryl thioamides derivatives 3-15 has been synthesized viaone-pot, three-component reaction of aroyl chloride, ammonium thiocyanate, and aromatic amines in dry acetone. The newly synthesized compounds' structures were validated by various spectroscopic methods, including elemental analysis, 1H-NMR, 13C NMR, and infrared spectroscopy. Under laboratory circumstances, the synthesized compounds showed good and broad-spectrum insecticidal activities toward S. littorali. When compared to other synthetic target compounds, 2,4-dichloro-N-[(3-fluorophenyl)carbamothioyl]benzamide 11, 2,4-dichloro-N-[(3-fluorophenyl)carbamothioyl]benzenecarbothioamide 13 showed good insecticidal activity, with 46.33 mg/L and LC50 values of 49.25 mg/L for 2nd instar larvae. Furthermore, the compound 3 was the least toxic in controlling the second and fourth instar larvae of S. littoralis on tomato leaves. Additionally, several histopathological and biochemical features of the some synthesized compounds under laboratory circumstances were also examined.

Abstract
An operationally simple one-pot three-component and convenient synthesis method for a series of diverse purine analogues of 5-amino-7-(substituted)-N-(4-sulfamoylphenyl)-4,7-dihydro-[1,2,4]-triazolo[1,5-a][1,3,5]triazine-2-carboxamide derivatives generated in situ via the reaction of 2-hydrazinyl-N-(4-sulfamoylphenyl)-2-thioxoacetamide, cyanoguanidine and a variety of aldehydes was achieved under green conditions. This experiment was conducted to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effect of the newly synthesized compounds using indomethacin as a reference medication; all compounds were tested for in vitro anti-inflammatory activity using the inhibition of albumin denaturation, RBC hemolysis technique and COX inhibition assay. The results showed that all evaluated compounds exhibited significant in vitro anti-inflammatory efficacy leading to excellently effective RBC membrane stabilization, inhibition of protein denaturation, and inhibition of COX enzymes when compared to those of indomethacin. At concentrations of 50, 100, 200, and 300 μg ml-1, these compounds decreased COX-1 and COX-2 activities more than indomethacin and have IC50 values in the range of 40.04-87.29 μg ml-1 for COX-1 and 27.76-42.3 μg ml-1 for COX-2 while indomethacin showed IC50 = 91.57 for COX-1 and 42.66 μg ml-1 for COX-2. The anti-inflammatory findings show the need for more investigation to define the properties underlying the evaluated compounds' anti-inflammatory abilities. The enzyme cyclooxygenase-2 (COX 2) (PDB ID: 5IKT) was docked with ten synthetic substances. With docking scores (S) of -8.82, -7.82, and -7.76 kcal mol-1, 7-furan triazolo-triazine (4), 7-(2-hydroxy phenyl) triazolo-triazine (11), and 7-(4-dimethylamino phenyl) triazolo-triazine (12) had the greatest binding affinities, respectively. Therefore, these substances have COX-2 (PDB ID: 5IKT) inhibitory capabilities and hence may be investigated for COX 2 targeting development. Furthermore, both the top-ranked compounds (4 and 11) and the standard indomethacin were subjected to DFT analysis. The HOMO - LUMO energy difference (ΔE) of the mentioned compounds was found to be less than that of indomethacin.

Abstract
In keeping with our investigation, a simple and practical synthesis of novel heterocyclic compounds with a sulfamoyl moiety that can be employed as insecticidal agents was reported. The compound 2-hydrazinyl-N-(4-sulfamoylphenyl)-2-thioxoacetamide 1 was coupled smoothly with triethylorthoformate or a variety of halo compounds, namely phenacyl chloride, chloroacetyl chloride, chloroacetaldehyde, chloroacetone, 1,3-dichloropropane, 1,2-dichloroethane, ethyl chloroformate, 2,3-dichloro-1,4-naphthoquinone, and chloroanil respectively, which afforded the 1,3,4-thiadiazole and 1,3,4-thiadiazine derivatives. The new products structure was determined using elemental and spectral analysis. Under laboratory conditions, the biological and toxicological effects of the synthetic compounds were also evaluated as insecticides against Spodoptera littoralis (Boisd.). Compounds 3 and 5 had LC50 values of 6.42 and 6.90 mg/L, respectively. The investigated compounds (from 2 to 11) had been undergoing molecular docking investigation for prediction of the optimal arrangement and strength of binding between the ligand (herein, the investigated compounds (from 2 to 11)) and a receptor (herein, the 2CH5) molecule. The binding affinity within docking score (S, kcal/mol) ranged between -8.23 (for compound 5), -8.12 (for compound 3) and -8.03 (for compound 9) to -6.01 (for compound 8). These compounds were shown to have a variety of binding interactions within the 2CH5 active site, as evidenced by protein-ligand docking configurations. This study gives evidence that those compounds have 2CH5-inhibitory capabilities and hence may be used for 2CH5-targeting development. Furthermore, the three top-ranked compounds (5, 3, and 9) and the standard buprofezin were subjected to density functional theory (DFT) analysis. The highest occupied molecular orbital-lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO-LUMO) energy difference (ΔE) of compounds 5, 3, and 9 was found to be comparable to that of buprofezin. These findings highlighted the potential and relevance of charge transfer at the molecular level.

Abstract
In this paper, novel pyridines 2-8 were designed and synthesized via the one-pot, four-component reaction of 2-formylphenyl 4-tolylsulfonate with malononitrile, ammonium acetate, and phenols or 2-thioxo-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one or 6-aminopyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione under microwave irradiation in an aqueous solution of water and ethanol (1:1 ratio). The structures of new pyridines 2-8 were elucidated by elemental and spectral analyses such as IR, 1H NMR, and 13CNMR. This application has many advantages, such as having easy workup, eco-friendliness, reaction time being short (6-13 min), high production (94-98%), inexpensiveness, and avoiding the use of harmful solvents. Moreover, all compounds have been investigated as insecticidal agents against cowpea aphid (Aphis craccivora) insects, and the toxicity effect was studied, followed by the structure-activity relationship. From the LC50 values, it has been found that compounds 7 and 8 were excellent and promising insecticidal agents, with LC50 values of 0.05 and 0.09 ppm against nymphs and 0.93 and 1.01 ppm against adults of cowpea aphid. Furthermore, the obtained results indicated that compounds 2-8 can be applied as insecticidal agents for the control of cowpea aphids and to protect agricultural crops from this destructive pest, which effects crop production and causes major economic damage.

Abstract
The exploration encompassed the synthesis and characterization of two innovative complexes, namely FePHNS and CuPHNS, employing a diverse array of analytical techniques such as elemental analysis, infrared and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, molar conductivity measurements, magnetic susceptibility assessments, and thermal analysis (TGA). In the spectral domain, infrared spectroscopy substantiated the tridentate ONS coordination of the PHNS ligand to the central metal atom. Thermal analysis offered valuable insights into the distribution and content of water molecules within the complexes. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were harnessed to validate the molecular structures of both the PHNS ligand and its complex entities, providing an intricate comprehension of their quantum chemical parameters. The investigation extended to an evaluation of the in vitro antibacterial, antifungal, and antioxidant efficacy of the PHNS ligand and its complexes, revealing heightened biological activities for the complexes in comparison to the free PHNS ligand, notably with the CuPHNS complex demonstrating the highest activity, while the PHNS ligand exhibited the lowest. To delve into potential physiological activities, molecular docking studies were conducted, predicting the binding affinity of the compounds to proteins 2vf5 (Glucosamine-6-phosphate synthase in complex with glucosamine-6-phosphate) from Escherichia coli, 3cku (rate oxidase from Aspergillus flavus complexed with its inhibitor 8-azaxanthin and chloride) from Aspergillus flavus, and 5IJT (Crystal structure of Human Peroxiredoxin 2 Oxidized). The ensuing analysis of protein-ligand interactions and binding energies underscored the promising physiological activities of the investigated compounds, warranting further exploration for their potential in novel drug development.

Abstract
The main target of the current framework is the designing and synthesizing of novel iron(III), cobalt(II), and cupper(II) complex compounds emanating from bioactive nucleus, 4-hydroxy-2H-pyrano[3,2-c]quinoline-2,5(6H)-dione ligand, to enhance comprehension as potential antibacterial, antifungal, and antioxidant alternatives by means of using DFT calculations and molecular docking investigation. Thus, the new complexes had been synthesized and characterized using various analytical techniques, including elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, UV spectroscopy, conductivity, and magnetic testing, as well as thermal analysis. The 4-hydroxy-2H-pyrano[3,2-c]quinoline-2,5(6H)-dione ligand exhibits monobasic bidentate OO donor properties toward the metal core, as shown by its infrared spectroscopic characteristics. The use of thermal analysis techniques allows for the identification and characterization of water molecules present inside the complexes, as well as the determination of their distribution patterns. The molecular structures of free ligand and its metal complex compounds have been verified through the use of density functional theory (DFT) simulations. These simulations also provide a valuable understanding of the quantum chemical characteristics associated with these structures. In vitro experiments were conducted to evaluate the antioxidant, antibacterial, as well as antifungal and the properties of the free ligand and its corresponding complex compounds. DATA revealed that synthesized metal complex compounds have heightened biological efficacy as related to the unbound ligand. Furthermore, molecular docking analysis was done to understand the interactions between the studied compounds and proteins derived from Escherichia coli (pdb ID: 2vf5), Aspergillus flavus (pdb ID: 3cku), and humans (pdb ID: 5IJT), which are considered to be significant in drug design. Lastly, a correlation between in vitro efficacies with molecular docking data was done and analyzed.

Abstract
Overcoming or reducing the majority of difficulties caused by the use of common pesticides requires the use of developed, secure, unique and selective organic compounds. Due to their clear mechanism of action on pests and lower poisonousness towards vertebrates than conventional insecticides, juvenile hormone analogues as an example of insect growth regulators appear promising. Thus, a unique set of pure insect growth regulators has been synthesized. The structure of these synthesized compounds, which were related to the most well-known insect growth regulator insecticides, was confirmed by elemental and contemporary spectroscopic investigations (IR, UV, 1 H-NMR, 13 C NMR, and Dept 135 spectrum). Under laboratory conditions, the effectiveness of a chemically newly synthesized products was tested against the cotton mealybug, Phenacoccus solenopsis, and compared with Fenoxycarb as a reference insecticide. Compound 7 was discovered to be more effective than the other synthetic compounds, with LC50 values of 0.907 mg/L for adult female P. solenopsis and 0.377 mg/L for third instar nymphs. Furthermore, this results concluded that the adult female's stage of P. solenopsis was less sensitive to the checked treatments as matched to the third instar nymphs.

Abstract
Unintentional environmental effects brought on by insecticides encourage the creation of safer substitutes. A very polyphagous migrating lepidopteran pest species in Africa called S. Frugiperda causes terrible damage. In the current paper, treatment of 4-acetylphenyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate with different aromatic aldehydes in the presence of NaOH afforded benzylideneacetophenones. The structure of the newly prepared compounds were proved by different spectroscopic techniques such as IR, 1 H-NMR, 13 C NMR, and elemental analysis. We looked at the association between contact with S. frugiperda and stricture reaction to examine their harmful effect. Additionally, S. frugiperda was used for testing the newly created compounds for their ability to kill insects. The majority of substances have been proven to be effective and promising. It has been found that 4-[3-(4-Methylphenyl)prop-2-enoyl]phenyl-4-methyl benzenesulfonate (4) was the most active with an LC50 =3.46 mg/L of 2nd instar larvae and LC50 =9.45 mg/L of 4th instar larvae. Moreover, some of biological and histopathological aspects of the synthesized products were investigated under laboratory conditions.
