    Synthesis of some new pyrazolone derivatives as potent antimicrobial agents
    (2011) Vijesh, A.M.; Isloor, A.M.; Isloor, S.; Shivananda, K.N.; Shyma, P.C.; Arulmoli, T.
    Invasive microbial infections are major problems around the world, especially in immuno compromised patients. The recent expansion of antimicrobial drug research has occurred because there is a critical need for new antimicrobial agents to treat these life threatening invasive infections. In the present study three series of new substituted pyrazolone derivatives (5a-f, 6a-f and 8a,b) were synthesized by the Knoevenagel condensation reaction of pyrazolones (3a,b) with various substituted carbaldehydes (4a-f, 7). These newly synthesized compounds were characterized by IR, NMR, mass spectra and also by C, H, N analyses. New compounds were screened for their antimicrobial studies against S. aureus, B. subtilis, E. coli and P. aeruginosa. The results revealed that compounds 5c and 6c having 2,5-dichlorothiophene substituent showed significant antibacterial activity against all tested microorganisms as compared to the standard drug Ceftriaxone.

    (2011) Vijesh, A.M.; Isloor, A.M.; Peethambar, S.K.; Shivananda, K.N.; Arulmoli, T.; Isloor, N.
    In the present study two new series of Hantzsch 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives (1,4-DHPs) containing substituted pyrazole moiety (4a-f and 5a-f) were synthesized by the reaction of 3-aryl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehydes with 1,3-dicarbonylcompounds (ethylacetoacetate and methylacetoacetate) and ammonium acetate. 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. All rights reserved.

    (Xi'an Jiaotong University, 2015) Poojary, M.M.; Vishnumurthy, K.A.; Vasudeva Adhikari, A.V.
    Abstract The present work involves extraction of phytochemicals from the root bark of a well-known Indian traditional medicinal plant, viz. Mammea suriga, with various solvents and evaluation of their in vitro antimicrobial and antioxidant activities using standard methods. The phytochemical analysis indicates the presence of some interesting secondary metabolites like flavonoids, cardiac glycosides, alkaloids, saponins and tannins in the extracts. Also, the solvent extracts displayed promising antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis and Cryptococcus neoformans with inhibition zone in a range of 20-33 mm. Further, results of their antioxidant screening revealed that aqueous extract (with IC50 values of 111.51±1.03 and 31.05±0.92 ?g/mL in total reducing power assay and DPHH radical scavenging assay, respectively) and ethanolic extract (with IC50 values of 128.00±1.01 and 33.25±0.89 ?g/mL in total reducing power assay and DPHH radical scavenging assay, respectively) were better antioxidants than standard ascorbic acid. Interestingly, FT-IR analysis of each extract established the presence of various biologically active functional groups in it. © 2015 Xi'an Jiaotong University.

    Preparation of gold nanoparticles by novel bacterial exopolysaccharide for antibiotic delivery
    (Elsevier Inc. usjcs@elsevier.com, 2016) Pradeepa, n.; Vidya, S.M.; Mutalik, S.; Bhat, K.U.; Huilgol, P.; Avadhani, K.
    Aim To develop potent drug delivery agents to treat multidrug resistant (MDR) bacterial infections using gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) prepared by bacterial exopolysaccharide (EPS) being a reducing and stabilizing agent. Methods Gold nanoparticles were prepared by EPS, extracted from Lactobacillus plantarum. AuNPs were characterized by UV-visible spectrophotometer, transmission electron microscope (TEM), zeta potential and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Antibiotics used for functionalization of AuNPs were levofloxacin, cefotaxime, ceftriaxone and ciprofloxacin. The resulted functionalized AuNPs were tested against various MDR bacteria by employing different assays such as well diffusion assay, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) and time killing assay. Key findings The nanostructures exhibited excellent bactericidal activity and reduced MIC and MBC against MDR Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria compared to free drugs. Escherichia coli was the most susceptible MDR bacteria followed by Klebsiella pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus. TEM results revealed that the bactericidal activity of nanostructures could be mediated by penetration, loss of cytoplasmic contents and cell lysis. Significance Antibiotic functionalized nanostructures were more potent than free drugs and could be used as potent drug delivery vehicles. © 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of New 8-Trifluoromethylquinoline Containing Pyrazole-3-carboxamide Derivatives
    (HeteroCorporation, 2017) Nayak, N.; Ramprasad, J.; Udayakumar, U.
    The article describes the design, synthesis, and characterization of a new series of 8-trifluoromethylquinoline substituted pyrazole-3-carboxamides (9a, 9b, 9c, 9d, 9e, 9f, 9g, 9h, 9i, 9j, 9k, 9l, 9m, 9n, 9o, 9p, 9q, 9r, 9s, 9t) derived from different primary and secondary amines. The intermediate and target compounds were characterized using spectroscopic methods. The structures of intermediate 7 and target molecule 9d were evidenced by the single crystal X-ray study. All the synthesized target compounds (9a, 9b, 9c, 9d, 9e, 9f, 9g, 9h, 9i, 9j, 9k, 9l, 9m, 9n, 9o, 9p, 9q, 9r, 9s, 9t) and three intermediates (6, 7, 8) were screened for their in vitro antitubercular activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv strain. Two compounds, 9k and 9t, showed significant inhibition activity with MIC of 3.13 µg/mL, which is comparable with the activity of standard drug, ethambutol. The carboxamides derived from benzylamine derivatives were more active than their aniline analogs. In general, the hybrid amides with a N-methylene linkage (-CONHCH2-) exhibited enhanced antitubercular activity. In the antibacterial screening, intermediate 3-hydrazinyl-2-methyl-8-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline (6) displayed remarkable activity against the tested bacterial strains. Further, the active anti-TB derivatives were non-toxic to benign NIH 3T3 cells, which demonstrate the lack of general cellular toxicity and hence signifies their suitability for further lead development. © 2015 HeteroCorporation

    (Bentham Science Publishers B.V. P.O. Box 294 Bussum 1400 AG, 2017) Harikrishna, N.; Isloor, A.M.; Kulal, K.; Parish, T.; Jamalis, J.; Ghabbour, H.A.; Fun, H.-K.
    Background: A new series of pyrazole containing 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives 5a-i and 6a-i were synthesized from substituted acetylated aryls and substituted phenylhydrazine by the multistep reaction. Method: The target compounds 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives were obtained from green synthesis of 1,3-disubstituted phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehydes 4a-i with ethyl acetoacetate and methyl acetoacetate at higher temperatures in the presence of ammonium acetate and the catalytic amount of ammonium metavanadate (NH4VO3). The role of ammonium metavanadate was increases rate of the reaction and obtained high yields. Result: Structures of newly synthesized 1,4-dihydropyridine moiety containing pyrazole derivatives were confirmed by FT-IR, NMR and Mass spectral studies. The structure of compound 5b was confirmed by S-XRD study. Further, these compounds were tested for in-vitro antitubercular and antimicrobial studies. Compounds 5a, 5b, 5i, 6a, 6b, 6g, 6h, and 6i were found to be active against all the bacterial microorganisms. Conclusion: The above mentioned compounds have shown lowest MIC ranging between 3.12-12.5 ?g/ml against Mycobacterium tuberculosis and MIC values ranging between 7.8- 15.6 ?g/ml for Mycobacterium smegmatis, Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. For the control of life threatening diseases such as tuberculosis, these eight compounds may be strongly promising synthetic compounds. © 2017 Bentham Science Publishers.
