Synthesis, Molecular Characteristics, And Antibacterial Assessment Of Marine Hydroid Aqueous Extract-Based Silver Bio-Nanoparticles, Fredryk Mandey, Aulia Rhamdani Arfan, Rugaiyah Andi Arfah

Makara Journal of Science

This investigation aims to synthesize, analyze the molecularity, and test the ability of bacterial inhibition capability of silver nanoparticles that have been synthesized by simply mixing silver nitrate and aqueous extracts of marine natural products with and without the addition of amylum as a stabilizing agent. This research, with and without the addition of amylum as a stabilizing agent, obtained 39.0 and 55.2 mg of solids of round-shaped morphology silver nanoparticles with diameters of 87.9 and 103.0 nm., respectively. In addition, the antibacterial testing assay against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli showed some considerably good results. S. aureus with the …


Study Of Antioxidant Activity Of The Derivatives Of Quinoline-4-Carboxylic Acids By The Modification Of Isatin Via Pfitzinger Reaction, Sakti Hidayati Fikriya, Antonius Herry Cahyana Jun 2023

Study Of Antioxidant Activity Of The Derivatives Of Quinoline-4-Carboxylic Acids By The Modification Of Isatin Via Pfitzinger Reaction, Sakti Hidayati Fikriya, Antonius Herry Cahyana

Makara Journal of Science

In this study, a quinoline-4-carboxylic acid derivative was synthesized through Pfitzinger reaction. In this reaction, isatin is modified via its reaction with ketone and refluxed for 24 h to obtain quinoline-4-carboxylic acid. The presence of a carboxylic group was identified by Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and ultraviolet–visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometry. The results showed that the absorption peaks of C=O and O–H stretching’s were detected in the range of 1724–1708 and 3436–3242 cm−1, respectively. In the UV-vis spectrum, a shift in the absorption peak was observed toward a larger wavelength, which is referred as a bathochromic shift. The formation …


Synthesis And Complexation Of Monotosylated 4-Aminopyridine With Nickel (Ii) And Iron (Ii) Ions, Kingsley John Orie, Remy Ukachukwu Duru, Raphael I-Oro Ngochindo Sep 2021

Synthesis And Complexation Of Monotosylated 4-Aminopyridine With Nickel (Ii) And Iron (Ii) Ions, Kingsley John Orie, Remy Ukachukwu Duru, Raphael I-Oro Ngochindo

Makara Journal of Science

Tosylated 4-aminopyridine and other sulfonylated compounds of amines comprise a substantial class of pharmaceutical drugs used as antibiotics in the field of medicine. This research aimed at the synthesis of tosylated 4-aminopyridine and the complexation of the tosyated 4-aminopyridine with Ni(II) and Fe(II) ions. The sulfonamide was prepared by the action of tosyl chloride on 4-aminopyridine in an aqueous alkaline medium. The complexes were synthesized by the reaction of Ni(NO3)2.6H2O /Fe(NO3)2.6H2O with sulfonamide derivative. These compounds were characterized through Ultraviolet Visible spectroscopy (UV–Vis), Fourier Transform Infer-Red (FTIR) spectroscopy, …
