Increasing interest in green chemistry has led scientists to an environmentally friendly nanoparticle synthesis approach that has many advantages, such as simple, affordable and versatility for a wide range of commercial production. In this study, green synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs), which is widely researched in the field of nanotechnology, was performed under different conditions (volume ratio of CC flower extract to Zn(CH3COO)2 solution, time, pH and temperature) using the aqueous extract of Amarant (Celosia cristata L., CC, cockscome) plant flowers. Produced ZnO NPs were characterized by UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), high-resolution transmission electron …

This work reports the surface modification of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fibers by graft copolymerization to ensure the decoration of homogenous and dense Ag nanoparticles. Two facile and subsequent modification processes resulted in a PAN fiber composite with an intact fibrous structure, sufficiently conductive for antistatic application and antibacterial activity. In the first step, some chemically attractive monomers and monomer mixtures, such as acrylic acid (AA), AA-itaconic acid (AA-IA), AA-acrylamide (AA-AAm), were introduced to the fiber surface by grafting. The grafting process was evidenced by FTIR, 1H-NMR, and SEM techniques. The second step aimed to form a chelate structure by Ag + …

Ten novel 2-aryl-5-(arylsulfonyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazoles were produced and assessed for their in vitro antibacterial and antioxidant activities. Diverse spectroscopic methods li1H NMR, 13C NMR, IR, and LCMS were used for the characterization of the prepared samples and all the data was in good agreement with the anticipated structures. The prepared compounds 6a-j were screened for their in vitro antibacterial activity against bacterial strains Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterobacter aerogenes, Escherichia coli (grampositive), and Bacillus cerus, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis (gram-negative). The antimicrobial screening outcome revealed that the prepared 2-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)-5-tosyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole (6j), 2-(3-isopropylphenyl)-5-tosyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole (6c), and 2-(2-ethylphenyl)-5-tosyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole (6i) are most potent among all the examined compounds. Furthermore, …
