Synthesis And Antimicrobial Activity Of Novel 2-(Pyridin-2-Yl)Thieno[2,3-D]Pyrimidin-4 (3h)-Ones, Nitin G. Haswani, Sanjaykumar B. Bari Jan 2011

Synthesis And Antimicrobial Activity Of Novel 2-(Pyridin-2-Yl)Thieno[2,3-D]Pyrimidin-4 (3h)-Ones, Nitin G. Haswani, Sanjaykumar B. Bari

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

In the present study, some new 2-(pyridin-2-yl)thieno[2,3-d] pyrimidin-4(3H)-ones derivatives (IIa-o) were synthesized. The target compounds (IIa-o) were synthesized through the acid catalyzed condensation of 2-cyano, 3-cyano, and 4-cyano-pyridines with various 2-amino-3-carbethoxythiophenes (Ia-e). All thiophene derivatives were synthesized by Gewald reaction. The structures of the newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by UV-Visible, FT-IR, ^1H-NMR, and mass spectral studies. All synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antimicrobial activity against various gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial and fungal strains. Amongst the synthesized compounds IIa, IIb, IId, IIe, and IIm were found to be active.


Antimicrobial Activity And Volatile Constituents Of The Flower, Leaf, And Stem Of Paeonia Daurica Grown In Turkey, Gonca Tosun, Nuran Kahri̇man, Canan Albay, Şengül Alpay Karaoğlu, Nuretti̇n Yayli Jan 2011

Antimicrobial Activity And Volatile Constituents Of The Flower, Leaf, And Stem Of Paeonia Daurica Grown In Turkey, Gonca Tosun, Nuran Kahri̇man, Canan Albay, Şengül Alpay Karaoğlu, Nuretti̇n Yayli

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The volatile constituents of the essential oils from the flower, leaf, and stem of Paeonia daurica Andrews were analyzed by GC and GC-MS. A total of 74 compounds were identified, constituting over 95.0%, 80.8%, and 98.2% of the oil composition of the flower, leaf, and stem of P. daurica, respectively. Aldehydes were shown to be the main group of constituents of the flower and stem parts, at 39.1% and 79.8%, respectively. However, the major group in the leaf oil was found to be oxygenated monoterpenes (43.5%). Salicylaldehyde (20.7% and 79.5%) was the major component of the flower and stem oils …


Synthesis, Characterization, And Biological Activity Studies Of (E)-N'-((Thiophen-2-Yl)Methylene)Benzofuran-2-Carbohydrazide And Its Metal(Ii) Complexes, Madappa B. Halli, Vijayalaxmi B. Patil, Sumathi R. Bevinamarada Jan 2011

Synthesis, Characterization, And Biological Activity Studies Of (E)-N'-((Thiophen-2-Yl)Methylene)Benzofuran-2-Carbohydrazide And Its Metal(Ii) Complexes, Madappa B. Halli, Vijayalaxmi B. Patil, Sumathi R. Bevinamarada

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Metal complexes of the type MLX_2, where M = Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II), and Hg(II), and X = Cl and L = TMBC, Schiff base derived from the condensation of benzofuran-2-carbohydrazide with thiophene-2-aldehyde were synthesized. The structure of the complexes was proposed in light of analytical, IR, UV-Vis, ^1H-NMR, FAB-MS, ESR spectral data, and magnetic studies. The complexes were soluble in DMF and DMSO. The measured molar conductance values indicated that the complexes were nonelectrolytic in nature. On the basis of these studies, 6 coordinated octahedral polymeric structures were assigned to the Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) complexes, and 4 …


Synthesis And Antimicrobial Activity Of Methoxy Azachalcones And N-Alkyl Substituted Methoxy Azachalconium Bromides, Canan Albay, Nuran Kahri̇man, Nagi̇han Yilmaz İskender, Şengül Alpay Karaoğlu, Nuretti̇n Yayli Jan 2011

Synthesis And Antimicrobial Activity Of Methoxy Azachalcones And N-Alkyl Substituted Methoxy Azachalconium Bromides, Canan Albay, Nuran Kahri̇man, Nagi̇han Yilmaz İskender, Şengül Alpay Karaoğlu, Nuretti̇n Yayli

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

In this study, 18 new N-octyl, N-decyl, and N-dodecyl substituted o-, m-, and p-methoxy (E)-3- and 4-azachalcones, {4- or 3-[(1E)-3-(4-, 3-, or 2-methoxyphenyl)-3-oxoprop-1-en-1-yl]-1-alkyl (C_{8,10,12}) pyridinium bromides} (1a-6a, 1b-1b, and 1c-6c), and 4 new o-, and m-methoxy (E)-3- and 4-azachalcones (2, 3, 5, and 6) were synthesized and tested for antimicrobial activities against Escherichia coli, Yersinia pseudotuberculosis, Enterobacter aerogenes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, Bacillus cereus, and Candida albicans. N-Alkyl substituted azachalconium bromides showed good antimicrobial activity against all tested microorganisms with minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) values in the range of 0.42-58.7 \mu g/mL in most cases. Nonalkylated compounds 1-9 …


Chemical Composition And Antimicrobial Activity Of The Essential Oils Of Geranium Columbinum L. And G. Lucidum L. (Geraniaceae), Niko Radulovic, Milan Dekic, Zorica Stojanovic-Radic, Radosav Palic Jan 2011

Chemical Composition And Antimicrobial Activity Of The Essential Oils Of Geranium Columbinum L. And G. Lucidum L. (Geraniaceae), Niko Radulovic, Milan Dekic, Zorica Stojanovic-Radic, Radosav Palic

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The chemistry of Geranium columbinum and G. lucidum volatiles has been studied here for the first time. The essential oils were obtained by hydrodistillation, analyzed by GC and GC-MS, and screened for their in vitro antibacterial and antifungal activity in a microdilution assay. In total, 172 constituents were identified, accounting for 88.1%-96.7% of the detected GC peak areas. The essential oils consisted mainly of fatty acids and fatty acid-derived compounds (65.0%-86.3%). The major compounds of the essential oils were hexadecanoic acid, hexahydrofarnesyl acetone, and tetracosane. The antimicrobial assay showed a strong activity of the oil from aerial parts of G. …
