Item A selective complexometric method is described for the determination of mercury(II) using sodium metabisulphite as a masking reagent. An excess of EDTA is added to mercury(II) solution containing associated diverse metal ions and the surplus EDTA is back titrated at pH 5-6 (hexamine buffer) with standard zinc sulphate solution using xylenol orange as indicator. An aqueous solution of sodium metabisulphite is then added to displace EDTA selectively from Hg-EDTA complex and the released EDTA is then titrated against the same standard zinc sulphate solution. Reproducible and accurate results are obtained in the range 4-100 mg of mercury with a relative error ? 0.26% and coefficient of variation ?0.40%. The method is useful for the analysis of mercury in complexes and alloy samples.(Complexometric method for the determination of mercury using sodium metabisulphite as selective masking reagent) Shetty, P.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.2004Item 4-(N,N-diethylamino) benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone in the spectrophotometric determination of palladium(2007) Parameshwara, P.; Karthikeyan, J.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.; Shetty, P.4-(N,N-diethylamino)benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone(DEABT) is proposed as a sensitive and selective analytical reagent for the spectrophotometric determination of palladium(II). The reagent reacts with palladium (II) in a potassium hydrogen phthalate-hydrochloric acid buffer of pH 3.0, to form a yellow complex. Beer's law is obeyed in the concentration range up to 3.60 ?gmL-1. The optimum concentration range for minimum photometric error as determined by Ringbom plot method is 0.36-3.24 ?g mL-1. The yellow Pd(II)-DEABT complex shows a maximum absorbance at 408 nm, with molar absorptivity of 3.33 × 104 dm3 mol-1 cm-1 and Sandell's sensitivity of the complex from Beer's data, for D=0.001, is 0.0032 ?g cm-2. The composition of the Pd(II)-DEABT complex is found to be 1:2 (M:L). The interference of various cations and anions in the method were studied. The proposed method was successfully used for the determination of Pd(II) in alloys, catalysts, complexes and model mixtures with a fair degree of accuracy.Item Regioselective reaction: Synthesis, characterization and pharmacological studies of some new Mannich bases derived from 1,2,4-triazoles(2009) Isloor, A.M.; Kalluraya, B.; Shetty, P.In the present investigation, a series of new 4[(3-substituted-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)methyleneamino]-5-substituted-2-[(4-methylpiperzine-1-yl)methyl]-2H-1,2,4-triazole-3(4H)-thiones (4) were synthesized by the aminomethylation of 4-(3-substituted-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)methyleneamino-5-substituted-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiols (3) with formaldehyde and N-methylpiperzine.

Structures of newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by spectral studies. Compound 6g was characterized by single crystal X-ray analysis.

All rights reserved.Item Synthesis and biological evaluation of aminoketones(2010) Sankappa Rai, U.; Isloor, A.M.; Shetty, P.; Isloor, N.; Malladi, S.; Fun, H.-K.A three-component Mannich reaction of different ketones with aromatic aldehydes and different amines in microwave irradiation under solvent free condition afforded corresponding ?-amino carbonyl compounds in excellent yields. This method proved as a novel and improved modification of the reported three-component Mannich reaction in terms of milder reaction conditions, reaction times, clean reaction profiles, very small quantity of catalyst and simple workup procedure. Newly synthesized ?-aminoketones were characterized by spectral studies. Structure of compound 4a was also confirmed by single-crystal X-ray analysis.

Few of the selected Schiff bases were converted into Mannich bases by reaction with diphenylamine/morpholine in presence of formaldehyde in ethanol media (4a-e, 5a-e). These newly synthesized compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, NMR and mass spectrometry studies. A comparative study on the cytotoxic activities of few selected Schiff and Mannich bases was done in HepG2 cells using MTT assay. Few of the screened Schiff bases, 3a, 3d, 3e, 3g and 3h showed dose dependent cytotoxic activity, 3a being the most potent with an IC50 value of 0.018 g/l comparable to the standard drug doxorubicin. Among the Mannich bases, 5b was the most active with an IC50 value of 0.034 g/l. The Schiff bases were found to be more active, when compared to Mannich bases derived from them. The morpholine derived Mannich bases were more potent than those obtained from diphenyl amine. © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2010.Item Synthesis, characterization, antioxidant, and anticancer studies of 6-[3-(4-chlorophenyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]-3-[(2-naphthyloxy) methyl][1,2,4] triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole in HepG2 cell lines(2011) Dhanya, D.; Isloor, A.M.; Shetty, P.; Satyamoorthy, K.; Prasad, A.S.B.Triazolo- thiadiazoles exhibit a variety of pharmacological properties, due to their cytotoxicity. In continuation of a previous study on triazolo-thiadiazoles, the authors have synthesized a new thiadiazole, 6-[3-(4-chlorophenyl)- 1-H-pyrazol-4-yl]-3-[(2-naphthyloxy)methyl] [1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole (CPNT), which was further characterized by advanced spectral techniques and elemental analysis. The compound exhibited a dose-dependent cytotoxic effect on hepatocellular carcinoma cell line, HepG2 with very low IC50 value of 0.8 ?g/ml in 24 h when compared with standard drug, doxorubicin. Incorporation of [3H] thymidine in conjunction with cell cycle analysis suggested that CPNT inhibited the growth of HepG2 cells. Flow cytometric studies revealed more percentage of cells in subG1 phase, indicating apoptosis, which was further confirmed through chromatin condensation studies by Hoechst staining. In vitro antioxidant activity of CPNT was determined by DPPH and ABTS free radical scavenging assays which revealed increasing scavenging activity with increasing concentration of the compound when compared with reference ascorbic acid. © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2010.Item A novel series of homoallylic amines as potential antimicrobials(2012) Rai, U.S.; Isloor, A.M.; Shetty, P.; Isloor, N.; Padaki, M.; Fun, H.-K.An efficient catalytic three-component reaction of aldehydes, amines, and allyltributylstannate has been successfully developed to produce homoallylic amines at 25°C, in excellent yields, in the presence of 1 mol% of trifluoroacetic acid an inexpensive and environmentally friendly catalyst.
