ABSTRACT
<p><b>AIM</b>A series of new 1,4-pentadien-3-one derivatives were synthesized to search for new Eight novel hydroxylated non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) with potent activity.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>E,E-1-(3'-indolyl)-5-( substituted phenyl)-1,4-pentadien-3-one derivatives were synthesized by means of aldol condensation and characterized by 1H NMR, ESI-MS and element analysis. Their anti-inflammatory activity in vitro were evaluated.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Preliminary in vitro pharmacological tests showed that all compounds exhibited anti-inflammatory activity.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Compounds 4d and 4e exhibited potent anti-inflammatory activity and their anti-inflammatory activity was comparable to resveratrol, and were worthy of further study.</p>

<p><b>AIM</b>To synthesize new fluoroquinolone analogues as antibacterial compounds.</p><p><b>METHODS AND RESULTS</b>By reaction of acryl chloride(chloro-carbonic ester) with sodium sulfocyanate, acyl isosulfocyanic ester were easily obtained. Twelve 7-(4-acylamino-thiocarbamoyl-1-piperazinyl) fluoroquinolone analogues (1-12) were synthesized through modifying the 7-piperazine of norflorxacin and ciprofloxacin with isosulfocyanic ester synthesized above. The structures of synthesized compounds were characterized by 1HNMR, IR and elemental analysis.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Antibacterial activities of the new compounds were evaluated in vitro compared with norflorxacin. Compounds 5, 7, 10 and 12 showed antibacterial activities.</p>
