Synthesis, characterization and evaluation of new anti-inflammatory iron charge transfer complexes.

The novelty and the essential purpose of this research is the preparation of new anti-inflammatory iron complexes in water green solvent using critical micelle concentration of anionic surface active agent (SAA). Three new anti-inflammatory iron complexes have been prepared. Thiophene-electron (es) donor (D) Schiff base (2-(2-OH-benzylidene)-amino)-4, 5, 6, 7-tetrah ydrobenzo[b] thiophene-3-carbonitrile) has been prepared. Molecular structures of all samples were confirmed based on CNH analysis, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra. The molecular structure of Schiff base is further confirmed by computational chemistry using the DFT-B3LYP method, 6-31G (d) basis set. Observed and simulated 1H NMR, UV-Vis. IR/Raman spectra confirmed the molecular structure of D. This Schiff base is intercalated to ferric chloride (FeCl3) giving pure iron charge transfer complex (CTCs). In vitro and kinetic studies confirmed Fe-CTC complexes had (concentration-dependent) potent antimicrobial-, good anti-inflammatory activities. Free radical scavenging activity nitrous oxide (NO.) of Fe (III)CTCs is attributed to geometry Fe(III) ions as distorted octahedral (either monoclinic or triclinic single crystals) via functional groups (-C]N-O, NH2). Elemental analysis and EDS spectra confirmed strong binding between iron and hetero atoms (N, S, O) of D molecules.

Facile green synthesis route for new ecofriendly photo catalyst for degradation acid red 8 dye and nitrogen recovery.

This study novelty is that new photo catalyst prepared from sustainability low cost precursors. Dark red color hydrogel composites have been easily prepared from gelatin biopolymer using a simple sol-gel method. Gelatin doped by cobalt chloride, and silver nanoparticles (SNPs) in the presence of traces amount of sodium dodecyl sulfate surfactant and calcium chloride. Water-insoluble Gelatin composites are thermally stable photocatalysts for the degradation of toxic anionic acid red 8 dye. Promising photodynamic activity confirmed by fluorescence emission at λmax 650 nm. Optical absorption in Vis. light enhanced photo catalytic activity. Silver nanoparticles enhanced crystallinity, and improved optical properties and porosity. Dopants by CoCl2 and silver nanoparticles increased band gap of gelatin composites from (1.82 to 1.95) indicating interfacial charge separation. Low band gaps improved photo catalytic activity. Optical band gaps (Eg) lower than 2.0 eV indicates high catalytic activity in the photo degradation acid red 8 dye using Vis. light, wavelength 650 nm. Percent removal efficiency (%Re) of the dye at 500 ppm initial concentration, pH 1, contact time 30 min., and 0.20 g L-1 dose photo catalyst reached 95%. pH not affects removal efficiency. So, gelatin composites removed AR8 dye by photodegradation mechanism rather than adsorption due to photodynamic activity. Kinetics of photodegradation followed pseudo first order kinetic with rate constant k1 5.13 × 10-2 min.-1 Good electrical conductivity and magnetic properties (effective magnetic moment (µeff 4.11 B.M) improved dye degradation into simple inorganic species. Nutrients NH4+, and NO3- degradation products recovered by using alumina silicate clay via a cation exchange mechanism.

Preparation, Characterization of New Antimicrobial Antitumor Hybrid Semi-Organic Single Crystals of Proline Amino Acid Doped by Silver Nanoparticles.

Proline is water soluble amino acid extensively used in drug delivery systems. Compounds of cobalt (Co) transition metal have potent antimicrobial and anticancer activities. However, a drug delivery system combining proline cobalt is not reported yet. For the first time, new hybrid semi-organic single crystals of proline cobalt chloride (PCC) are prepared. The novelty of the article is also that single crystal proline cobalt chloride showed potent antimicrobial and antitumor activity. Doping of PCC by Ag0NPs significantly increased these biological activities. The anisotropic magnetic properties of single crystals can mitigate the cytotoxicity of Ag0NPs on normal cells. Silver nanoparticles (Ag0NPs) improved the crystal habits and physicochemical properties. Ag0NPs showed the best performance, paramagnetic materials n-type semiconductors due to delocalized excess electrons of Ag0NPs incorporated in the crystal lattice interstitially. Crystals have high absorptivity for UV-radiation electromagnetic radiation. Ag0NPs enhanced AC electrical conductivity up to 2.3 × 104 Ω cm-1 due to high electron density. Proline doped crystals are obtained in good purity as triclinic unit cell with having anisotropic magnetism. PCCAg0NPs crystal exhibited: high antimicrobial activities to various bacterial and fungal species, inhibition zone (mm): 21, 25, 24, 26, 30, 28, 12, and 46 for S. aureus, E. faecalis, S. typhi, E. coli, P. aerugino, K. pneumoniae, A. braselienses, and C. albicans, respectively, in comparison to ciprofloxacin antibiotic (23, 0, 26, 26, 25, 0, 0, 0) for the same tested species, respectively; higher cytotoxicity against breast cancer cells (IC50 22.1 µM) than the reference drug cisplatin (IC50 11.7 µM); and lower cytotoxicity to normal healthy lung cells MRC-5, (IC50 145.5 µM) than cisplatin (IC50 30.2 µM). Hence, this crystal is a candidate for chemotherapy of breast cancer.

The role of natural biological macromolecules: Deoxyribonucleic and ribonucleic acids in the formulation of new stable charge transfer complexes of thiophene Schiff bases for various life applications.

The ecofriendly cellulose and gelatin provided sustainable and abundant sugars: d-ribofuranose, and 2-Deoxy-ribofuranose (starting reactants for preparative synthetic green chemistry pathways of charge transfer complexes. The natural available sugars d-ribofuranose, and 2-Deoxy-ribofuranose were obtained from facile hydrolysis of cellulose and gelatin natural macromolecules. Successive, low cost and facile alkaline- and acid hydrolysis of Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA, from gelatin animal source) and ribonucleic acid (RNA, from cellulose plant source) yield the simple sugars: d-ribofuranose and 2-Deoxy-ribofuranose. Eight optically and biologically active charge transfer complexes were prepared from the reaction of the above sugars efficiently intercalated with two new prepared thiophene Schiff Lewis (electron donors) bases: 2-((2Hydroxybenzylidene) amino)-4, 5, 6, 7-tetrahydrobenzo [b] thiophene-3-carbonitrile (D1, 2-((Furan-2ylmethylene) amino) 4,5,6,7 tetrahydrobenzo [b] thiophene-3-carbonitrile (D2). The chemical structures of these prepared Schiff bases were confirmed using the mass spectra. The successful intercalation of the sugar units with the Lewis bases was ascertained using powder x ray diffraction. The molecular structures of the reaction products were proposed based on FTIR, 1H NMR. The optical activity of charge transfer complexes were confirmed using UV-Vis. Absorption spectroscopy. The surface morphology, microstructures, and particle size of the donors and charge transfer complexes were determined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The Lewis bases (D1) and (D2) showed no antimicrobial activity, while their charge transfer complexes showed good antimicrobial activity, suggesting their pharmaceutical and medicinal applications due to the potent biological activity against wide spread microbial microorganisms of Gram positive and Gram positive bacteria as well as some fungal species.

Synthesis of promising nanocomposites from an antitumer and biologically active heterocyclic compound uploaded by clay and chitosan polymers.

The innovative nanocomposites (NCs) of antibacterial and antitumor 2-amino-5-S-benzyl-1, 3, 4-thiadiazole (ABMT): binary (NC1): ABMT-clay as well as the ternary (NC2): ABMT-clay-chitosan have been prepared following the top-down approach method. The ABMT molecules have been efficiently uploaded on the inorganic polymer potassium montmorlinite clay polymer (MMT). The NC is homogenously dispersed in the aqueous solutions without crystallization of ABMT. However, the dispersity of the small particle size and the crystallinity of NC1 is greatly enhanced in the presence of the biopolymer chitosan. The nanocomposites showed good non linear optical activity with suitable band gaps indicated the electron confinement in the NC. The loading and entrapment efficiency of ABMT onto MMT reached 89.3% in NC1 during 6 h of contact time with the aqueous solution of pH 6.8. The enhanced redox characteristics of NC1 relative to that of MMT suggested the better biological (antibacterial and antitumor) activity of NC1. Chitosan enhanced the redox and the optical properties of NC1 and its ability to undergo intercharge transfer to any acceptor sites. Hence, chitosan may added synergestic electron donation and, hence antitumor activity to the binary NC1.
