Mercury(II) complexes of thiolates having the general formula [Hg(RS)Cl2]−and [Hg(RS)2] have been prepared and characterized by IR and NMR (1H and13C) spectroscopy (RSH = 2-aminoethanethiol hydrochloride (Aet), cysteine (Cys), thiosalicylic acid (Ts) and 2-mercaptonicotinic acid (Mnt)). The spectral data suggests that the coordination of thiolates to mercury(II) occurs through the sulfur as indicated by the absence of S–H vibrations in IR and significant downfield shifts in the C–S resonance in13C NMR. However, in Mnt complexes, coordination through both sulfur and nitrogen is indicated. Antimicrobial activities of the complexes were evaluated by minimum inhibitory concentration and the results showed that the complexes exhibited a wide range of activities against gram-negative bacteria (E. coli, P. aeruginosa), while moderate activity was observed against a mold,P. citrinum.

New 3(2H)-pyridazinone derivatives containing a N’-benzyliden-acetohydrazide moiety at position 2 were synthesized. The structures of these newly synthesized compounds were confi rmed by IR, 1H NMR, and MS data. These compounds were tested for their antibacterial, antifungal, antimycobacterial, and cytotoxic activities. The compounds 2-[4-(4-chlorophenyl)- 6-(morpholin-4-yl)-3-oxo-(2H)-pyridazin-2-yl]-N’-(4-tert-butylbenzyliden)acetohydrazide and 2-[4-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-(morpholin-4-yl)-3-oxo-(2H)-pyridazin-2-yl]-N’-(4-chlorobenzyliden) acetohydrazide exhibited activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Most of the compounds were active against E. coli ATCC 35218. The preliminary results of this study revealed that some target compounds exhibited promising antimicrobial activities

The 2-phenylsulphonamide derivatives of amino acids were synthesis by simple substitution of benzenesulphonylchloride (6) with amino acids (1-5) containing pharmacological active functionalities. Structures of the synthesised compounds (7a-7e) were characterised using FT-IR, NMR(1H,13C) and elemental analysis. The anti bacterial activities of the synthesised compounds were evaluated against gram positive bacteria: Staph and Streptococcus, gram negative bacteria: E-coli, Klebsiella, Proteus, and pseudomonas using 200 µl of 10 mg/ml and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) were also determined. The compounds exhibited effective anti bacterial properties though some are not more active than the standard drug ciprofloxacin.

Amino acids play important roles in organisms to sustain in living state and perform as body constituents, enzymes and antibodies. At insalubrious situations, use of amino acids derivatives as drugs in the maintenance of normal health is better choice than common unnatural synthetic drugs. This is due to the fact that the amino acids derivatives may be more bio-compatible, biodegradable and eliminate easily than others.  In this sense we have made an effort and report herein the synthesis of N-{2-(4-chlorophenyl) acetyl} amino alcohols synthesised by reduction of N-{2-(4-chlorophenyl)acetyl} derivatives of (S)-amino acids such as (S)-phenylalanine, (S)-alanine, (S)-methionine, (S)-leucine, (S)-tryptophan and (S)-proline. These newly synthesized amino acids derivatives were analysed by proton, carbon-13 NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy. The composition of solid derivatives was determined by elemental analysis. Further, antimicrobial activities of these derivatives were assessed on usual bacteria K. aerogenes, E. coli, S. aureus and P. desmolyticum and fungi A. flavus and C. albicans. The compounds were witnessed moderate activity than authorised antibacterial and fungal agents Ciprofloxacin and Fluconazole respectively. The antimicrobial studies also revealed that, these derivatives could be better antifungal agents than antibacterial agents. Finally we compared the experimental results of antimicrobial activities with docking studies.

The synthesis and antimicrobial application of Co (III) and Fe (III) complexes of imine functionalized N-heterocyclic carbene (Imino-NHC) ligands is reported. The ligand precursors 1-(2-[(hydroxyl-benzylidene)-amino]-ethyl)-3-R-3H-imidazol-1-ium bromide where R = pyridyl (1a) and benzyl (1b) have been reported in our previous work. The in-situ generated ligands of 1a and 1b have been successfully coordinated to CoBr2 and [FeI(Cp)(CO)2] leading to the isolation of air-stable N^C^N^O four coordinate Co(III)  complex 2 and a six-coordinate Fe(III) complex 3. The synthesised complexes were both found to be NMR inactive hence were characterize using FTIR and LRMS. The complexes were screened for antimicrobial activities against four gram-negative bacteria Escherichia Coli (E-coli), Shigella, Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. Pneumoniae) and Salmonella typhi (S. typhi) and a gram positive bacteria Staphylocossus aureus (S. aureus). The antimicrobial test was conducted using disc diffusion methods and based on the concentrations of 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 µg/ mL, significant activities were recorded for both cobalt and the iron complexes.

Abstract Ten 5-bromoindole-2-carboxamides were synthesized, characterized and evaluated for antibacterial activity against pathogenic Gram-negative bacteria Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Salmonella Typhi using gentamicin and ciprofloxacin as internal standards. Compounds 7a–c, 7g and 7h exhibit high antibacterial activity with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 0.35–1.25 μg/mL. Compounds 7a–c exhibit antibacterial activities that are higher than those of the standards against E. coli and P. aeruginosa.

In recent years, indole derivatives have acquired conspicuous significance due to their wide spectrum of biological activities—antibacterial, antiviral, and anticonvulsant. This compound is derived from naturally grown plants. Therefore, synthesis of a novel “3-(Naphthalen-1-ylimino)indolin-2-one” compound (2) and its analysis using UPLC systems along with antimicrobial assessment was the aim of the current study. Isatin was used as a parent drug for synthesizing compound (2). Liquid Chromatographic analysis was performed using a C18 BEH column (1.7 μm 2.1 × 50 mm) by UPLC systems. Degradation studies were carried out to see whether acid, base, thermal, and oxidizing agents had any impact on the synthesized molecule in stress conditions (100 °C). A lipid-based self-nanoemulsifying formulation was developed and selectivity, specificity, recovery, accuracy, and precision were measured as part of the UPLC system’s validation process. Antimicrobial studies were conducted using gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The standard samples were run with a concentration range of 5.0–100.0 μg/mL using the isocratic mobile phase comprising of methanol/water (70/30 %v/v) at 234 nm; good linearity (R2 = 0.9998) was found. The lower limits of detection (LOD) and quantitation (LOQ) of the method were found to be 0.81 μg/mL and 2.5 μg/mL, respectively. The coefficients of variation were found to be less than 2%. The antimicrobial study suggests that compound (2) has a substantial growth effect against gram-negative bacteria. It was successfully synthesized and applied to measure the concentrations in lipid-based dosage form, along with potent antimicrobial activities.

A series of new 5-(2,6-dichlorobenzylidene)thiazolidine-2,4-dione and 5-(4-methoxy-benzylidene)thiazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives (3a-h and 5a-h) were synthesized starting from 5-arylidene-thiazolidine-2,4-dione and ?-halo-ketones. The structural elucidation of the newly synthesized compounds was based on elemental analysis and spectroscopic data (MS, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR). The synthesized compounds were screened for their antimicrobial activities against several pathogenic strains of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and one fungal strain (Candida albicans), assessed in vitro as growth inhibition diameters. Some of them displayed better inhibitory activities than that of the reference drug against the Gram-positive S. aureus, B. cereus, L. monocytogenes bacterial strains, and showed good antifungal activity against C. albicans, while the antibacterial activity against Gram-negative E. coli and S. typhimurium bacterial strains was moderate.

Because of the excellent properties and wide applications on nanomaterials, recent years, researchers start to focus on the use of nanomaterials in wastewater treatment. This paper investigated the antimicrobial activities of ZnO against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria strains – E. coli and Sarcinic pseudomycosis. Growth curves of bacteria strains were used to estimate the antimicrobial activities of ZnO suspensions. This work showed pH values of ZnO suspension did not affect the antimicrobial activities of ZnO. Besides, when treating small number of bacteria slurry, ZnO expressed the killing action. Based on this work, the possible antimicrobial mechanism is also discussed in this paper.
