The synthesis of (1)-N-(3,4-dimethoxy-benzyl)-1,10-phenanthrolinium bromide had been conducted from vanillin. Heme polymerization inhibitory activity assay of the synthesized antiplasmodium has also been carried out. The first step of reaction was methylation of vanillin using dimethylsulfate and NaOH. The mixture was refluxed for 2 h to yield veratraldehyde in the form of light yellow solid (79% yield). Methylation product was reduced using sodium borohydride (NaBH4) with grinding method and yielded veratryl alcohol in the form of yellow liquid (98% yield). Veratryl alcohol was brominated using PBr3 to yield yellowish black liquid (85% yield). The final step was benzylation of 1,10-phenanthroline monohydrate with the synthesized veratryl bromide under reflux condition in acetone for 14 h to afford (1)-N-(3,4-dimethoxy-benzyl)-1,10-phenanthrolinium bromide (84%) as yellow solid with melting point of 166-177 °C. The structures of products were characterized by FT-IR, GC-MS and 1H-NMR spectrometers. The results of heme polymerization inhibitory activity assay of (1)-N-(3,4-dimethoxybenzyl)-1,10-phenanthrolinium bromide showed that it had IC50 HPIA of 3.63 mM, while chloroquine had IC50 of4.37 mM. These results indicated that (1)-N-(3,4-dimethoxybenzyl)-1,10-phenanthrolinium bromide was more potential antiplasmodium than chloroquine.

In this work, novel Cu/BiVO4 photocatalyst were prepared by a low-temperature solid state grinding method using Bi (NO3)3•5H2O, NH4VO3 and Cu (NO3)2•2H2O as raw materials. The structure and properties of the samples were characterized by Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and UV-vis diffused reflectance spectroscopy (DRS); Using the degradation of methyl orange (MO) as the probe, it was simulated as the degradation of sewage under the visible light to study the influence of the illumination time and the amount of photocatalysts. Compared with the pure BiVO4, the visible-light absorption scope of BiVO4 was broadened by doping Cu, the UV-Visible absorption edges were slightly red shift and the band gap was narrower. Comparatively speaking, the results indicted that the doped Cu enhanced the photocatalytic activities of BiVO4.

Quinazolin-4(3H)-ones have been prepared in one step from 2-aminobenzamides and orthoesters in the presence of acetic acid. Simple 2-aminobenzamides were easily converted to the heterocycles by refluxing in absolute ethanol with 1.5 equivalents of the orthoester and 2 equivalents of acetic acid for 12–24 h. Ring-substituted and hindered 2-aminobenzamides as well as cases incorporating an additional basic nitrogen required pressure tube conditions with 3 equivalents each of the orthoester and acetic acid in ethanol at 110 °C for 12–72 h. The reaction was tolerant towards functionality on the benzamide and a range of structures was accessible. Workup involved removal of the solvent under vacuum and either recrystallization from ethanol or trituration with ether-pentane. Several 5,6-dihydropyrimidin-4(3H)-ones were also prepared from 3-amino-2,2-dimethylpropionamide. All products were characterized by melting point, FT-IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and HRMS.

Epiphyllum, Hylocereus, and Opuntia plants belong to the Cactaceae family. They are mostly known as ornamental plants but also for their edible fruits, which can potentially be sources of betalains, such as betanin, a natural pigment used in the food industry, e.g., under the European label code E 162. The aim of this work was the identification of betalains (using LC-MS/MS), evaluation of total betalain content (spectrophotometrically), analysis of functional groups (using FT-IR), evaluation of antioxidant activity (using DPPH, ABTS, FRAP, DCFH-DA, and reducing power methods) and evaluation of antimicrobial activity (S. aureus, E. coli, and C. albicans) in fruits of Epiphyllum, Hylocereus, and Opuntia taxa. A total of 20 betalains were identified in the studied Cactaceae fruits. The Epiphyllum pink hybrid had the highest values of total betalains amongst all samples. The highest antioxidant activity was observed in the Epiphyllum pink hybrid, in Opuntia zacuapanensis and O. humifusa fruits. The antimicrobial activity assay showed that cacti fruits were not able to effectively inhibit the growth of E. coli, S. aureus, or C. albicans. Our results prove that these fruits are good sources of natural pigments—betalains. They do not contain toxic compounds in significant amounts and they exhibit antioxidant activity.

In order to enhance hole/electron separation and charge transfer in photocatalysts, the heterostructured g-C3N4/CoAPO-5 hybrids materials were synthesized via a simple grinding method and were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The optical properties of g-C3N4/CoAPO-5 hybrids materials were measured by ultraviolet-visible diffuse-reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), photoluminescence (PL) spectra and ultraviolet-visible absorption (UV-Vis) spectra. Under visible-light illumination, this work shows the heterogeneous g-C3N4/CoAPO-5 hybrids present a superior photocatalytic activity.

There are engaged scientists practically from all over the world to the 1,2,4-triazole system research but the greatest attention deserve the achievements of domestic scientists who managed from the very beginning to register new original medicines in Ukraine. There is no doubt that the original attempt of combining various typical fragments with the nucleus of 1,2,4-triazole is gaining popularity among researchers. The purpose of our work was to synthesized and investigate a row of new 5-(3-fluorophenyl)-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiols by a Sulfur atom, to study the physical-chemical properties of previously unsubscribed compounds. The chemical names of the compounds are given in accordance with the IUPAC nomenclature (1979) and the IUPAC recommendations (1993). Investigations of the physical-chemical properties of the obtained compounds were carried out according to the methods which are given in the State Pharmacopoeia of Ukraine. The melting point was determined on an automatic device for determining the melting point OptiMelt Stanford Research Systems MPA100 (USA). The elemental structure of the new compounds was established on the element analyzer Elementar Vario L cube (CHNS) (standard - sulfanilamide). The data of elemental analysis correspond to the calculated. The 1Н NMR-spectra of the compounds were recorded using a «Mercury 400» spectrometer, the solvent DMSO-d6, the internal standard – tetramethylsilane (TMS) and decrypted using the SpinWorks computer program. Chromate-mass spectra were recorded on an Agilent 6890N/5973N/FID spectrometer produced by Agilent Technologies with a Dean microflow switch. By the experiment results there were obtained eleven previously unidentified individual compounds light yellow and white color which are soluble in organic solvents and insoluble in water. The crystallization process was carried out in isopropanol. Using a complex approach with the use of modern physical-chemical methods of analysis we confirmed the structure of 5-(3-fluorophenyl)-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol, 3-alkylthio-5-(3-fluorophenyl)-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazole, 1,4-bis((5-(3-fluorophenyl)-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-yl)thio)propane and 1,4-bis((5-(3-fluorophenyl)-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-yl)thio)butane. The individuality of the synthesized compounds was confirmed chromatographically, the constants peaks of the pseudo molecular ions of the synthesized compounds coincide with the calculated values of the molecular masses. We first synthesized 5-(3-fluorophenyl)-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazol-3-thiol which was further used as a starting material in the synthesis of new 3-alkylthio-5-(3-fluorophenyl)-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazole, 1,4-bis((5-(3-fluorophenyl)-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)thio)propane and 1,4-bis((5-(3-fluorophenyl)-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)thio)butane. Complex physical-chemical methods of analysis confirmed the structure of synthesized compounds.
