Item Synthesis, characterization and biological activities of some new benzo[b]thiophene derivatives(2010) Isloor, A.M.; Kalluraya, B.; Pai, K.Benzo[b]thiophene molecules are found to be important tools in synthetic medicinal chemistry. They are of current interest due to their wide spectrum of pharmacological properties. In view of the biological activities of benzo[b]thiophene containing molecules, in this present research work, we propose the synthesis of some new benzo[b]thiophene derivatives such as thiadiazoles, oxadiazoles, pyrazolin & diaryl pyrazoles starting from 3-chlorobenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxyl chloride. These newly synthesized compounds were characterized by elemental analyses, I.R, NMR and Mass spectral studies. Some of the selected compounds were screened for their antibacterial, antifungal and anti-inflammatory studies. Many of the molecules were found to be potent. © 2009 Elsevier Masson SAS.

The first series were synthesized by the reaction of 3-aryl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde thiosemicarbazones (2a-d) with DMAD and the second series by the reaction of 3-aryl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehydes (1a-e) with 1,2-diketones (4a,b) in the presence of ammonium acetate. Structures of newly synthesized compounds were characterized by spectral studies. New compounds were screened for antifungal and antibacterial activities. Among the synthesized compounds, compound 3c was found to be potent antimicrobial agent. The acute oral toxicity study for the compound 3c was carried out and the experimental studies revealed that compound 3c is safe up to 3000 mg/kg and no death of animals were recorded. © 2011 Elsevier Masson SAS.

The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by IR, NMR, mass spectral study and also by C, H, N analyses. New compounds were screened for their antimicrobial activity by well plate method (zone of inhibition). Antioxidant studies of the synthesized compounds were also performed by measuring the DPPH radical scavenging assay. Compounds 4c, 4e and 4f were found to be potent antibacterial and antioxidant agents. The acute oral toxicity study for the compounds 4c, 4e and 4f were carried out and the experimental studies revealed that compounds 4c and 4e is safe up to 3000 mg/kg and no death of animals were recorded. However in compound 4f, we found mortality above 2000 mg and also significant behavioral changes in experimental animals. © 2011 Elsevier Masson SAS.

Present paper describes about the synthesis of three series of new 1,2,4-triazole and benzoxazole derivatives containing substituted pyrazole moiety (11a-d, 12a-d and 13a-d). The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by spectral studies and also by C, H, N analyses. All the synthesized compounds were screened for their analgesic activity by the tail flick method. The antimicrobial activity of the new derivatives was also performed by Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) by the serial dilution method. The results revealed that the compound 11c having 2,5-dichlorothiophene substituent on pyrazole moiety and a triazole ring showed significant analgesic and antimicrobial activity. © 2012 Elsevier Masson SAS.

This growing crisis emphasizes the urgent need for advanced and efficient water purification technologies to mitigate pollution and ensure the availability of pure water. To address this issue, the current study focuses on the synthesis of a chicken egg white amyloid–graphitic carbon nitride composite (AM–CN) using graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) and egg whites through environment friendly and simple techniques. These composites were further characterized using different analytical techniques such as BET, FTIR, XRD, SEM, and TEM to understand the structure of the composite. Furthermore, these composites were embedded into hollow fiber membranes, and later, these membranes were analyzed through AFM, SEM, and hydrophilicity studies to understand the character and structure of the membrane. The filtration performance of the membrane revealed that the membrane with the AM–CN composite demonstrated enhanced performance in both pure water permeability and pollutant removal capacity. Among the fabricated membranes, the neat membrane exhibited a pure water permeability of 81 L m?2 h?1 bar?1. In contrast, the highest permeability of 203 L m?2 h?1 bar?1 was exhibited by the M II membrane, therefore considering it as an optimized membrane. This optimized membrane also displayed the highest pollutant removal capacity of >99% for Congo red dye, >98% for Reactive black 5 and 88% for Reactive orange 16 dye. In the case of heavy metal ion removal, the same membrane displayed an impressive 99% removal of lead ions and 75% removal of mercury ions in the presence of humic acid. © 2025 The Royal Society of Chemistry.
