The characterization of new compounds was corresponded by using spectroscopic techniques, IR, NMR and Mass spectra. In vitro, all compounds were evaluated as antimicrobial activity compared with cefotaxime sodium and nystatin as the standard drug. This work deals with the exploration of the new heterocyclic compounds and medicinal diversity of quinoline-pyrido[2,3-d][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyrimidine derivatives that might pave the way for long in the discovery of therapeutic medicine for future drug design.

Exploration of the Photodegradation of Naphtho[2,3‐g] quinoxalines and Pyrazino[2,3‐b]phenazines

Nitrogen‐containing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are very attractive compounds for organic electronics applications. Their low‐lying LUMO energies points towards a potential use as n‐type semiconductors. Furthermore, they are expected to be more stable under ambient conditions, which is very important for the formation of semiconducting films, where materials with high purity are needed. In this study, the syntheses of naphtho[2,3‐g]quinoxalines and pyrazino[2,3‐b]phenazines is presented by using reaction conditions, that provide the desired products in high yields, high purity and without time‐consuming purification steps. The HOMO and LUMO energies of the compounds are investigated by cyclic voltammetry and UV/Vis spectroscopy and their dependency on the nitrogen content and the terminal substituents are examined. The photostability and the degradation pathways of the naphtho[2,3‐g]quinoxalines and pyrazino[2,3‐b]phenazines are explored by NMR spectroscopy of irradiated samples affirming the large influence of the nitrogen atoms in the acene core on the degradation process during the irradiation. Finally, by identifying the degradations products of 2,3‐dimethylnaphtho[2,3‐g]quinoxaline it is possible to track down the most reactive position in the compound and, by blocking this position with nitrogen, to strongly increase the photostability.

Synthesis,reactions, and biological study of some new thienopyrimidine derivatives as antimicrobial and anti‐inflammatory agents

Pyrimidine and thienopyrimidine derivatives play a very important role in organic chemistry because of their wide applications as bioactive compounds with multiple biological activities. However, a literature survey revealed that the merger of different groups in the thieno[2,3‐d]pyrimidine heterocyclic ring enhances its antibacterial, antifungal and anti‐inflammatory activities. This encouraged us to prepare a new series of thieno[2,3‐d]pyrimidine heterocyclic compounds and to test them as antimicrobial and anti‐inflammatory agents.
