The coordinatively unsaturated copper (II) complexes of 1,3-bis(2'-pyridyl)-1,2-diaza-2- butene with different ancillary anions were synthesized which can bind to copper centers of tyrosinase enzyme. The compounds were found to exhibit inhibitory activities against mushroom tyrosinase and the nature and extent of inhibition is modulated according to the type of ancillary anions.

A pair of triazole-linked bistetrahydrobenzofuran derivatives were prepared in high yields through Cu (II)-catalyzed click reaction under mild conditions. All of the intermediates and target compounds were characterized by NMR, IR, ESI-MS and elemental analysis. Thein vitroH+/K+-ATPase inhibitory effect for the target compounds were also evaluated by MTT methods, and the (E)-isomer of the bistetrahydrobenzofurans exhibited the better H+/K+-ATPase inhibitory activities than the commercial omeprazole with the IC50of 37.90 μM. The bioactive compound might be potentially used as anti-ulcer agents in the treatment of acid-related diseases.

A new hydrocinnamoyl glucoside, 1-O-(4-hydroxyhydrocinnamoyl)-β-D-glucopyranose (1), together with fifteen known glycosides, including two phenylethanoid glycosides (2–3), two cinnamoyl glycosides (4–5), six phenolic glycosides (6–11), one lignan glycoside (12) and four megastigmane glycosides (13–16) were isolated from a 95% EtOH extract of the Typhonium giganteum rhizomes. The sixteen glycosides were structurally characterized by NMR, HRESIMS, enzymatic hydrolysis and comparison with literature. Upon evaluating inhibitory activities of compounds 1–16 against mushroom tyrosinase at 25 μM, compounds 10 and 11 exhibited obvious inhibitory activities, with %inhibition values of 20.94±0.59%, 23.28±1.09%, respectively, with arbutin used as the positive control (26.21±0.58%).

Nanoparticles are widely used in the biotechnology and biomedicalfield. Green synthetic methods of nanoparticles are a simple and environmentallybenign process that declines the demerits of conventional chemical andphysical methods. The synthesis of semiconductor and metal nanoparticles is a risingdo research part, due to the possible applications in the progress of new technologies.The present research information the synthesis and characterization of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) using C. Sinensis leaf extract. The findings of these studies show the green synthesized ZnO NPs are effective, safe, and eco-friendly as they arestable and have abundant flower shapes with maximum particles in size ranging from 100 nm indiameter. The synthesized ZnO NPs have been tested against the pathogenic microorganismsand showed an excellent zone of inhibition. DPPH radical scavenging activity of synthesized ZnO NPs expressed DPPH free radicals as a percentage of inhibition andIC50value of 70.37%. Acetylcholine esterase (AChE) inhibitory activity possesses the maximum amount of the synthesized ZnO NPs. Since the results ofthe current work, it was concluded that the synthesized ZnO NPs exhibited significant antibacterial and acetylcholine esterase inhibitory activities. Hence it can beused as a drug with multifunction in treating Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

The synthesis and characterization of Ti and TiN thin films of different thicknesses was carried out on a martensitic stainless steel AISI 410 substrate used for tool manufacturing. The mechanical parameters between the interacting surfaces such as thickness, adhesion and hardness were measured. By means of the scanning electron microscope (SEM) the superficial morphology of the Ti/TiN interface was observed, finding that the growth was of columnar grains and by means of EDAX the existence of titanium was verified.  Using X-ray diffraction (XRD) it was possible to observe the presence of residual stresses (~ -3.1 GPa) due to the different crystalline phases in the coating. Under X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) it was possible to observe the molecular chemical composition of the coating surface, being Ti-N, Ti-N-O and Ti-O the predominant ones.
