Existence of solutions for k-dimensional system of multi-term fractional q-integro-differential equations under anti-periodic boundary conditions via quantum calculus

We prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions for a $k$-dimensional system of multi-term fractional $q$-integro-differential equations via anti-periodic boundary conditions by using some well-known tools of fixed point technique such as Arzelà–Ascoli theorem. We firstly give the corresponding Green function for the boundary value problem and some of its attributes. In addition to, we give a numeric method to verify the analysis for checking the existence of a solution of the system. Finally, an interesting example is presented to illustrate the results.     

Copper iodide nanoparticles-decorated porous polysulfonamide gel: As effective catalyst for decarboxylative synthesis of N-Arylsulfonamides

A porous cross-linked poly (ethyleneamine)-polysulfonamide (PEA-PSA) as a novel organic support system is synthesized in the presence of silica template by nanocasting technique. The paper demonstrates immobilization of CuI nanoparticles inside the pores (PEA-PSA@CuI) for the facile recovery and recycling of these nanoparticles. The presence of porous PEA-PSA and PEA-PSA@CuI nanocomposites was confirmed using FT-IR spectroscopy, FE-SEM, EDX, TGA, XRD, TEM, BET, XPS, WDX, ¹H NMR, and ICP-OES techniques. The PEA-PSA@CuI along with Ag(I)/K₂S₂O₈ was implemented as a reusable cooperative catalyst-oxidant system in the N-arylation of p-toluenesulfonamide with substituted carboxylic acids in mild condition. So, the novel decarboxylative cross-coupling catalyzed by copper and silver has been developed. Aromatic, secondary and tertiary aliphatic acids underwent high efficient decarboxylative processes with p-toluenesulfonamide to afford the corresponding products. This method provides a practical approach for the flexible synthesis of sulfonamides from the readily affordable substrates. The catalyst is highly reusable and efficient, especially in terms of time and yield of the desired product.

Laccase-catalyzed,aerobic oxidative coupling of 4-substituted urazoles with sodium arylsulfinates: Green and mild procedure for the synthesis of arylsulfonyl triazolidinediones

The direct aerobic oxidation of 4-substituted urazoles using the laccase enzyme from Trametes versicolor in a phosphate buffer solution at ambient temperature, and subsequent cross-coupling with sodium benzenesulfinates was investigated to afford arylsulfonyl-1,2,4-triazolidine-3,5-dione derivatives in good to high yields.     

The effect of methyl jasmonate and light irradiation treatments on the stilbenoid biosynthetic pathway in Vitis vinifera cell suspension cultures

Grape stilbenes are a well-known family of plant polyphenolics that have been confirmed to have many biological activities in relation to health benefits. In the present study, we investigated the effect of methyl jasmonate (MeJA) elicitor at four different concentrations (25, 50, 100 and 200 μM) in combination or not with high-level light irradiation (10,000 LUX) on a cell line obtained from the pulp of Vitis vinifera cv. Shahani. Our results showed that the stilbene synthesis pathway is inhibited by high-light conditions. A concentration of 50 μM MeJA was optimum for efficient production and high accumulation of total phenolics and total flavonoids as well as total stilbenoids. Furthermore, we showed that there is a significant negative correlation between the production of these metabolites and cell growth. These data provide valuable information for the future scale-up of cell cultures for the production of these very high value compounds in bioreactor system.

Quantum chemical study of the host-guest inclusion complexes of the local anaesthetic drugs, procaine hydrochloride and butacaine hydrochloride, with α- and β-cyclodextrins

Quantum mechanical (QM) calculations were carried out in order to study the host-guest inclusion complexes of procaine hydrochloride (Pro-H) and butacaine hydrochloride (But-H) with α- and β-cyclodextrins (α- and β-CDs) by PM3 and AM1 methods. The systems were studied by a 1:1 (α-CD/Pro-H, α-CD/But-H, β-CD/Pro-H, and β-CD/But-H) stoichiometric ratio. In this work we calculated the energy of complex formation in vacuo, and this investigation was carried out on the basis of the host-guest approach. The stabilization energy results for the 1:1 host-guest inclusion complexes indicate that the β-CD/Pro-H complex is more stable than the α-CD/Pro-H complex. Furthermore, stabilization energy for the 1:1 inclusion complex of α-CD with But-H is lower than that for the 1:1 inclusion complex of β-CD with But-H. The calculation results show that all complexation processes for the four complexes are exothermic. Enthalpy changes for the α-CD/But-H and β-CD/Pro-H host-guest inclusion complexes are more negative than those for the other ones. ΔG ^o values for both the β-CD/Pro-H and α-CD/But-H complexes are negative. Correspondence: S. M.
