Physicochemical Studies on an All-Purpose Pesticide Spray Adjuvant-(APSA-80)

APSA-80, an useful pesticide spray adjuvant is a mixture of 2-[2-(4-nonylphenoxy) ethoxy] ethanol, 1-butanol and tall oil fatty acids. It is strongly surface active and can decrease the surface tension of water to ～20 mNm^?1 at its critical micelle concentration (CMC) of 0.006 g%. APSA-80 itself and its binary mixtures, (APSA-80 + water) and (APSA-80 + isopropylmyristate [IPM]) and ternary mixtures (APSA-80 + water +IPM) can undergo a number of physical changes with rise in temperature; the main changes are in color, turbidity and phases. The ternary mixtures of APSA-80/water/IPM with changing compositions can form mono-, bi-, and triphasic solutions as well as gels and viscous solutions. The gel and viscous phases show characteristic rheological properties of both shear thinning and thickening types. They also show permeation of hydrophilic and oleophilic dyes through them. SEM and optical microscopic measurements have shown interesting surface morphologies of the gels and their vertical projections in three-dimensional pictorial mode. Salts like LiCl, NaCl, KCl, CsCl, MgSO₄, and Al₂(SO₄)₃ can have both minor and major effects on the gel consistencies. The alkanols like ethanol, propanol, and isopropanol are also mild to fairly large gel influencing co solvents. The antibacterial properties of APSA-80 have been studied with two Gram positive bacteria and a yeast; the activities found were moderate.     

Antibacterial and Antifungal Activities—Surface Active Properties Relation of Novel Dischiff Base Cationic Gemini Amphiphiles Bearing Homogeneous Hydrophobes

A novel series of cationic Gemini amphiphiles containing Dischiff base species were synthesized and their chemical structures were determined using different analytical tools. Their surface properties were determined using surface tension measurements. The adsorption and micellization thermodynamic parameters were calculated using Gibb's equations at 25°C. The surface parameters were also determined including critical micelle concentration, effectiveness, efficiency, maximum surface excess, minimum surface area, interfacial tension, and emulsification power. The synthesized cationic Gemini surfactants were evaluated as bactericides for gram negative and gram positive bacteria and also against sulfur reducing bacteria (SRB). The results of the cytotoxicity of the synthesized compounds against the targeted bacterial strains were promising and completely dependent on the surface activity of these compounds.

Metallo Phthalocyanines bearing 2‐Isopropyl‐6‐methylpyrimidin‐4‐yloxy Substituents: Synthesis,Characterization, Aggregation Behavior,Antioxidant and Antibacterial Activity,and Electronic Properties

A novel phthalonitrile derivative bearing 2‐isopropyl‐6‐methylpyrimidin‐4‐yloxy substituents at peripheral positions was synthesized by a nucleophilic substitution reaction. Metallophthalocyanines were obtained from the reaction of the novel phthalonitrile with metal Zn, Cu, Co, and Ni salts. The characterization of the compounds was performed using elemental analysis as well as UV/Vis, FT‐IR, and ¹H‐NMR spectroscopy. The aggregation behaviors of phthalocyanine complexes were also investigated. These metallophthalocyanines do not show any aggregation behavior between 10^–4–10^–6 M concentration range in THF. The antioxidant activities of the synthesized compounds were evaluated using three different tests: 2, 2‐diphenyl‐1‐picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging, metal chelating activity, and reducing power assays. All the compounds exhibited various antioxidant activities. In addition, antimicrobial activity of the compounds was tested over four gram positive and two gram negative bacteria. Moreover, the ground‐state geometries of the complexes were optimized using density functional theory (DFT) methods at B3LYP/6‐31G(d, p) level in order to obtain information about the 3D arrangements and electronic structure.     

Ionic liquid-supported chiral saldach with tunable hydrogen bonding: synthesis,metalation with Fe(III) and in vitro antimicrobial susceptibility

New water-soluble methylimidazolium ionic liquids (MIILs) bearing N,N′-bis-(salicylidene)-R,R-1,2-diaminocyclohexane (saldach) scaffold, H₂(R¹)₂saldach(2-MeIm⁺X⁻)₂ (4a: R¹=H, X=Cl^–; 4b: R¹=H, X=PF₆^–; 4c: R¹=H, X=BF₄^–; 4d: R¹=ⁱPr, X=Cl^–; 4e: R¹=ⁱPr, X=PF₆^–; 4f: R¹=ⁱPr, X=BF₄^–), and their Fe(III) complexes have been synthesized and structurally characterized as well as their profile of antimicrobial susceptibility was identified. The new saldach-supported MIILs demonstrated a distinctly enhanced biocidal effect toward methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli (MDREC). Compound 4d is the most potent antibacterial agent and could inhibit the growth of all micro-organisms, except A. flavus, more effectively than standard antibiotics.     

Synthesis and antibacterial activity of some novel thieno[2,3-c]pyridazines using 3-amino-5-phenyl-2-ethoxycarbonylthieno[2,3-c]pyridazine as a starting material

3-Amino-5-phenyl-2-ethoxycarbonylthieno[2,3-c]pyridazine (6) was prepared by reaction of 4-cyano-6-phenylpyridazine-3(2H)-thione (4) with ethyl chloroacetate in the presence of sodium ethoxide. Hydrazinolysis of compound 6 yielded the corresponding carbohydrazide, (9) which on treatment with acetylacetone and ethyl acetoacetate produced the novel thieno[2,3-c]pyridazines (10 and 11). Treatment of compound 9 with nitrous acid yielded the corresponding carboazide (13), which upon boiling in toluene furnished imidazo[4′,5′:4,5]thieno[2,3-c]pyridazine (15). Pyrimidothienopyridazines (16–18) were achieved by cyclocondensation of compound 9 with some reagents, namely acetic anhydride, formic acid, and triethyl orthoformate. The newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by elemental analyses and spectral data. The antibacterial activities of the new compounds were also evaluated.     

The development of platinum-rhodium alloy coatings on SS304 using a pulse/direct electrodeposition technique and their application to antibacterial activity

The current research focused on the development of Platinum–Rhodium alloy coating (Pt– Rh) on SS304 and its applications in antibacterial studies. Electrodeposition is considered to be one of the most suitable methods because it enhances the therapeutic effects of noble metals (Pt–Rh alloy). The electrodeposited coating is an economical and time-saving alternative to existing coating methods. The newly developed Pt–Rh coating was investigated using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and an atomic force microscope (AFM). Using the agar Petri plate and broth culture method, the antibacterial effect of the platinum-rhodium alloy was investigated against Gram-negative Escherichia coli and Gram-positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus saprophytes, Bacillus Subtilis, and Enterococcus faecalis. The Pt–Rh alloy coated samples obtained by Direct current (DC) and Pulse coating (PC 50% and PC 75%) were examined for antibacterial study. The PC 75% Pt–Rh alloy coating exhibits significant antibacterial activity, demonstrating a maximum zone of inhibition while leaving the rest of the coated samples by DC and PC 50% duty cycles. The study also found that when the concentration of Pt–Rh solution rises from 5 μL to 15 μL, so does the antibacterial activity. The findings of the study showed that electrodeposited platinum-rhodium alloy metal ions may be handy bacteriostatic in the coming years.     

Synthesis,characterization and antioxidant,antibacterial activity Zn2+, Cu2+, Ni2+ and Co2+, complexes of ligand [2-(thiophen-2-yl)-1-(thiophen-2-ylmethyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole]

New metal complexes of (Zn(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II)) based on the ligand 2-(thiophen-2-yl)-1-(thiophen-2-ylmethyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole] were synthesized, whose structures were determined with the different spectroscopic techniques ¹H NMR,¹³C NMR, FT-IR, UV–Visible and by mass spectrometry. The thermal analysis was performed by TG-DTA. The antioxidant activity of the ligand and its complexes was evaluated by DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) method, in comparison with the synthetic antioxidant, ascorbic acid. The results obtained showed that the antioxidant activity of the ligand and its complexes is moderate and that the copper complex has a high activity that exceeds that of ascorbic acid. Antimicrobial activity of the ligand and its metal complexes was studied against two Gram-positive bacteria: Bacillus subtilis ILP1428B, Staphylococcus aureus CIP543154 and two Gram-negative bacteria: Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC27653, Escherichia coli CIP5412 (American Type Culture Collection)the activity data show that the metal complexes are more potent than the free ligand.
