The electrochemical behaviour of the Zn(II)–Zn(Hg) system in aqueous ethylene glycol (EG) solutions containing 5.0 × 10−2 M LiClO4 has been studied by polarography and cyclic voltammetry. The reversible half-wave potentials, the diffusion coefficients and the Walden products for Zn(II) have been polarographically determined. The standard free energies of transfer of 1 mol of Zn(II) ions from water to EG–water mixtures, [Formula: see text], obtained from the reversible half-wave potentials vs. the ferrocene electrode scale, are always negative, indicating a greater stability of Zn(II) in EG–water mixtures than in pure water. The splitting of the [Formula: see text] values into electrostatic and chemical contributions shows that the mixtures are more basic than water. The analysis of the variation of the Walden product with solvent composition indicates an enhancement of the solvent structure in the water-rich region. The diffusion coefficient for Zn in mercury, the transfer coefficients for Zn(II) electroreduction, and the apparent standard rate constants of the Zn(II)–Zn(Hg) system have been determined by cyclic voltammetry. The change in the kinetics with solvent composition is discussed in terms of existing models.

Background: The need for suitable antibacterial agents effective against Multi-drug resistant Gram-negative bacteria is acknowledged globally. The present study was designed to evaluate the possible antibacterial potential of an extracted compound from edible flowers of Moringa oleifera. Methods: Five different solvents were used for preparing dried flower extracts. The most effective extract was subjected to fractionation and further isolation of the active compound with the highest antibacterial effect was obtained using TLC, Column Chromatography and reverse phase- HPLC. Approaches were made for characterization of the isolated compound using FTIR, NMR and Mass spectrometry. Antibacterial activity was evaluated according to the CLSI guidelines. Results: One fraction of aqueous acetic acid extract of M. oleifera flower was found highly effective and more potent than conventional antibiotics of different classes against Multi-drug resistant Gram-negative bacilli (MDR-GNB) when compared. The phytochemical analysis of the isolated compound revealed the presence of hydrogen-bonded amine and hydroxyl groups attributable to unsaturated amides. Conclusion: The present study provided data indicating a potential for use of the flowers extract of M. oleifera in the fight against infections caused by lethal MDR-GNB. Recommendations: Aqueous acetic acid flower extract of M. oleifera is effective, in-vitro, against Gram-negative bacilli. This finding may open a scope in pharmaceutics for the development of new classes of antibiotics.
