Andrographolide, derived from the plant Andrographis paniculata (AP), exhibits a diverse range of biological activities, encompassing anti-bacterial, anti-tumor, antiinflammatory, anti-obesity, anti-viral, anti-fibrotic, hypoglycemic, and immunomodulatory properties. Notably, numerous analogues of andrographolide have been synthesized, incorporating significant chemical structural modifications to enhance bioavailability and dru Read More

In the current study, a zinc-linked amino acid complex was successfully synthesized as an efficient and recoverable catalyst for the synthesis of dihydro pyrano thiazole derivatives via the reaction of an aromatic aldehyde with malononitrile and rhodanine in one-pot, three-component reaction under green conditions. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by elemental and spectral analyses. Environme Read More

Complexes of cobalt(II) chloride with 1-propargylimidazole, 1-propargyl-2-methylimidazole, and 1- propargylbenzimidazole ligands were synthesized and studied by FTIR spectroscopy and X-ray analysis. According to the X-ray analysis, the crystal molecules of compounds were connected by non-covalent interactions, such as halogen bonds and π-stacking. The nature and energy of coordination metal-ligand and noncovalent bond Read More

Cardiovascular disease is one of the primary causes of death. Atherosclerosis produces artery constriction or obstruction, which can lead to a heart attack or stroke. Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein (CETP) is a protein that aids in reverse cholesterol transport. It promotes cholesteryl ester transfer from HDL to LDL and VLDL. So, inhibition of CETP by drugs limits cardiovascular disease by decreasing LDL and increasing HDL Read More

Organocatalyst 1,4-diazabicyclo [2.2.2]octane (DABCO) has proven to be an efficient and environmentally friendly catalyst in the multicomponent reaction involving aldehydes, ethylenediamine, and thioglycolic acid under microwave conditions. DABCO stands out among other organic catalysts due to its cost-effectiveness, non-toxic nature, and environmentally conscious profile. The method employed in this study exhibited exce Read More
