The synthesis of some 1,3-diazoles and thiazoles was realized in different conditions:a) In the presence of PTSA or sulfuric acid as catalyst we obtained only diazole products(4a-d).b) In basic medium such as DABCO or sodium hydroxide and ionic liquid afforded thiazoles.c) Both products, diazoles and thiazoles were collected when using methanol as catalyst and solvent.All structures were confirmed by IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The antibacterial activity of some synthesized compounds was investigated against Escherichia Coli (ATCC: 25922) and Serratia marcescens (ATCC: 13880) as gram negative bacteria, Bacillus sabtilis (ATCC: 6633) and Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC: 6338) as gram positive bacteria. Some of these products exhibit good activities to significant antibacterial activity.

The hydrolysis effect of ionic liquid glycine chloride [Gly]Cl aqueous system without any catalyst on the degradation for chitosan were studied. The molecular weight (Mw) and degree of deacetylation (DD) of degraded products were tested via the viscometric method and the titration method, respectively. The structure of the raw and degraded chitosans were assessed through Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). Besides, the antibacterial effects of different Mw chitosans to Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus were evaluated. The results showed that [Gly]Cl aqueous solution was of good assistant degradation effect for chitosan and different molecular weight (300-800 kDa) chitosans were obtained with different processing time via the ionic liquid hydrolysis method. The DD of degraded chitosans tested from titration method was almost unchanged by the treatment. The FTIR and XRD results showed that the ionic liquid degradation had no obvious effect on the molecular structure of chitosan. Besides, the antibacterial activity was closely relevant to the chitosan concentration and Mw. When the concentration was greater than 0.005% (w/v), chitosan began to show strong antibacterial activity. Molecular weight of 636 kDa exhibited commendable antimicrobial properties to E. coli and S. aureus simultaneously.

Quantum dots (QDs; 1 to 10 nm) were recently synthesized by sol-gel and used as nonagglomerated nanoparticles in adhesive resin. The sol-gel process presented a low yield and resulted in a liquid product without stability. In this study, an imidazolium ionic liquid (IL; 1- n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, BMI.BF4) was used as stabilizing agent to synthesize titanium dioxide QDs (TiO2QDs/BMI.BF4) via a chemical route. The product was isolated as powder after washing, centrifuging, and drying. An experimental adhesive resin was formulated by mixing methacrylate monomers and a photoinitiator system. The TiO2QDs/BMI.BF4 powder was incorporated at 2.5 (G2.5%) and 5 (G5%) wt% in the adhesive resin, and one group remained without TiO2QDs/BMI.BF4 powder as the control (Gctrl). The TiO2QDs/BMI.BF4 powder was analyzed by micro-Raman spectroscopy, thermogravimetry, and transmission electron microscopy. The dispersion of TiO2QDs/BMI.BF4 powder was analyzed in the polymerized adhesive resin with transmission electron microscopy and fluorescence microscopy. The adhesive resins were evaluated for immediate and long-term antibacterial activity, cytotoxicity, polymerization behavior, degree of conversion, softening in solvent, immediate and long-term microtensile bond strength, and fracture pattern. The TiO2QDs/BMI.BF4 powder showed peaks of anatase and rutile and 26 wt% of BMI.BF4. TiO2QDs/BMI.BF4 presented a minimum size of 1.19 nm, a maximum size of 7.11 nm, and a mean ± SD size of 3.54 ± 1.08 nm. TiO2QDs/BMI.BF4 was dispersed in the adhesive resin without agglomeration, presenting intermittent luminescence by blinking. The addition of any tested concentration of TiO2QDs/BMI.BF4 powder provided immediate and long-term antibacterial activity without cytotoxic effect against the pulp fibroblasts. Furthermore, compared with Gctrl, G2.5% showed reliable polymerization behavior and degree of conversion without differences for softening in solvent with maintenance of bond adhesion to tooth immediately and over time. Thus, the incorporation of 2.5 wt% of TiO2QDs/BMI.BF4 in adhesive resin showed reliable physical, chemical, and biological properties.
