The cancer therapeutics involves cancer drug delivery, photodynamic therapy (PDT), photo thermal therapy (PTT) and sonodynamic therapy (SDT).

(i) toxicity prediction for bacterial mutagenicity, (ii) assessment of pharmacological activity and (iii) density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed for structure confirmation. For bacterial mutagenicity prediction, in silico assessments were performed following ICH M7 guidelines. Using rule-based and statistical-based methodologies, predictions revealed an alerting group in CD1-CD3, while no alerting group was observed in KD1-KD4 for bacterial mutagenicity. To assess pharmacological activity, docking studies were conducted to identify the mode of binding and interaction types of cilnidipine and its degradation products with N-type and L-type calcium channel subunits 7VFS and 7UHF, respectively. Additionally, 20 drugs acting as calcium channel blockers were considered for docking analysis to correlate the affinities of binding. The interaction energies revealed that molecule CD3 shows the highest binding affinity with the ligand molecules, with a binding energy of -9.2 (kcal/mol) with 7VFS and -8.7 (kcal/mol) with 7UHF proteins, followed by KD3 with a binding energy of -8.7 (kcal/mol) (7VFS) and -7.9 (kcal/mol) (7UHF). Furthermore, DFT calculations were employed to reassess the structures of degradation products CD1 and CD2 proposed in the literature. Simulating 1H and 13C NMR spectra, the obtained data demonstrated good agreement with experimental results, confirming the proposed stereo-configurations in the literature. Based on in silico bacterial mutagenicity predictions and docking studies, KD3 emerged as a promising compound for receptor binding. Additionally, DFT calculations provided structural insights, affirming stereo-configurations proposed in the existing literature. This multifaceted approach contributed valuable insights into the toxicity, pharmacology and structural aspects of cilnidipine degradation products.","PeriodicalId":8494,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Chemistry","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140362372","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An in vitro investigation was performed to measure the efficacy of antibacterial and antimycotic characteristics of these novel compounds (3a-o). Specifically, the growth-inhibiting action against the test fungal strains, including A. niger, M. purpureos and A. flavus was examined. Additionally, their inhibitory antibacterial activity against key bacterial strains, including P. aeruginosa, S. aureus and E. coli was ascertained employing the agar diffusion technique. The results of antibacterial screening disclosed that maximum number of the thiazole derivatives viz. 3a, 3d, 3e, 3i, 3k, 3l and 3n displayed minimum inhibitory concentration of 12.5 µg/mL for E. coli. While compounds 3k and 3n displayed minimum inhibitory concentration of 12.5 µg/mL for S. aureus. A minimum inhibitory concentration of 25 µg/mL was exhibited by compounds 3i, 3l and 3n against P. aeruginosa.

Therefore, the present study was aimed to perform the synthesis, characterization, in vitro cytotoxicity analysis and in vitro antimicrobial activity of novel benzamidine analogues (NBA) against Porphyromonas gingivalis mediated peri-implantitis. To achieve the objectives of present study, 12 newer benzamidine analogues (NBA) were designed and subjected to molecular docking against Kgp-lysine specific cysteine proteinases gingipain K (PDB ID: 4RBM). Thus in present study, novel benzamidine analogues (NBA) were synthesized, followed by characterization (using attenuated total reflectance infrared, 1H & 13C NMR and direct infusion mass spectral data), in vitro antimicrobial activity (MIC and MBC) of NBA against P. gingivalis (using micro broth dilution method) and in vitro cytotoxicity analysis of NBA against HEK 293 cells (using MTT assay). The study offered successful synthesis of three NBA (3a-c) and elucidated their structures. All the synthesized NBA exhibited good antimicrobial activity against P. gingivalis with MIC value ranged between 31.25-250 µg/mL. Also, all NBA exhibited weak/negligible cytotoxicity against HEK 293 cells at 7.81 µg/mL. In conclusion, this study has led to the successful synthesis of effective peri-implantitis inhibitors with no significant toxicity. Present study recommends that, in future, the synthesized NBA should be further evaluated for their clinical importance in the peri-implantitis.","PeriodicalId":8494,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Chemistry","volume":"20 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140362697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The crystal structure confirmation, optical properties, thermal properties, surface morphology and presence of elemental composition of the prepared samples using XRD, UV, TGA and FESEM-EDAX analyses were thoroughly investigated. The synthesized materials were employed as photocatalysts to degrade methylene blue dye within 120 min under visible light. An increase in the optical properties of the synthesized double perovskite materials was confirmed by ultraviolet (UV) analysis, which showed that the introduction of various cations into the perovskite material at the A-site shifted the photoluminescence (PL) emission peak to the red. TGA results demonstrated that (Cs0.50MA0.50)2SnI6 has greater thermal stability, which was confirmed by the presence of 43% of sample despite the temperature reaching almost 870 ºC. Doped double perovskite material (Cs0.50MA0.50)2SnI6 exhibited increased photocatalytic activity, with methylene blue dye degradation efficiency attaining 89% after 120 min of visible light irradiation, which is greater than pure double perovskite materials. The photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue dye is mostly facilitated by hydroxyl radicals and holes, according to a radical trapping experiment that we conducted by employing different scavengers. The results of the current work showed that doped double perovskite materials [(Cs0.50MA0.50)2SnI6] exhibit high thermal stability as well as higher photocatalytic activity than pure double perovskite materials. A possible photocatalytic reaction process is also diagrammatically using the band positions of double perovskite materials found using Mott-Schottky plots , which confirms that the synthesized double perovskite material has an N-type semiconductor nature.","PeriodicalId":8494,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Chemistry","volume":"55 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140363004","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The structural features of these molecules containing pyrimidine ring with π-conjugated systems and various functional groups on the aromatic rings greatly influence their photophysical properties. Thus, they behave as better candidates for developing the photoelectric materials. Thus, it is proposed to synthesize, characterize and study their solvatochromic behaviour in various polar and non-polar organic solvents viz. dichloromethane, tetrahydrofuran, ethyl acetate, acetonitile and ethanol. Interestingly, all the target molecules exhibited greater Stoke’s shift (λf-λa) in dichloromethane except for compound 5e, which exhibited greater value in tetrahydrofuran, possibly due to the moderately polar nature of the solvent. The synthesized benzopyran pyrimidines displayed solvatochromic characteristics due to the presence of multiple substituted functional groups on the rings in different organic solvents.
