ABSTRACT

In this study, we report the synthesis of a new compound, N4,N4-dimethyl-2-(methylsulfanyl)-N6-(4-phenoxyphenyl)pyrimidine-4,6-diamine (DMS), and its comprehensive analysis through structural and spectroscopic characterizations, reactivity parameters, and nonlinear optical properties, utilizing a combination of experimental and computational techniques. The experimental aspect of the investigation encompassed structural characterization using X-ray diffraction and spectroscopic assessments employing Fourier-transform infrared, Raman, and nuclear magnetic resonance techniques, along with thermal analysis. Our computational approach involved density functional theory (DFT) calculations and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to examine the local reactivity properties of DMS. We employed fundamental reactivity descriptors to evaluate DMS's local reactivity and utilized MD simulations to identify DMS atoms engaging in significant interactions with water molecules. We conducted periodic DFT calculations on DMS's crystal structure to investigate the contributions of specific atoms and groups to the compound's overall stability as well as to analyze noncovalent interactions between DMS molecules. We assessed the nonlinear optical properties through dynamic second hyperpolarizability and third-order nonlinear susceptibility calculations. Additionally, we conducted a comparative analysis of the static and dynamic second hyperpolarizability for the DMS molecule within the sum-over-states framework. The obtained value for the third-order nonlinear susceptibility, (λ = 1907 nm), exceeds those of other organic materials reported in previous studies, indicating that the DMS crystal holds promise as a nonlinear optical material for potential application in photonic device fabrication. Furthermore, molecular docking studies were performed with the 3E5A, 4EUT, and 4EUU proteins, yielding binding affinities of -8.1, -8.2, and -8.3 kcal/mol, respectively, in association with the ligand.

ABSTRACT

The polluted water sources pose a serious issue concerning the various health hazards they bring along. Due to various uncontrolled anthropogenic and industrial activities, a great number of pollutants have gained entry into the water systems. Among all the emerging contaminants, anionic species such as fluoride cause a major role in polluting the water bodies because of its high reactivity with other elements. The need for water remediation has led the research community to come up with several physicochemical and electrochemical methods to remove fluoride contamination. Among the existing methods, biosorption using bio and modified biomaterials has been extensively studied for defluoridation, as they are cheap, easily available and effectively recyclable when compared to other methods for defluoridation. Adding on, these materials are non-toxic and are safe to use compared to many other synthetic materials that are toxic and require high-cost design requirements. This review focuses on the recent developments made in the defluoridation techniques by biosorption using bio and modified biomaterials and defines the current perspectives of fluoride removal specifically using biomaterials.

ABSTRACT

A new class of phosphoramidate derivatives of 6-fluoro-3-(piperidin-4-yl)benzo[d]isoxazole were synthesized in good to excellent yields (78-96%) by an in situ, three-step process. All the synthesized molecules were evaluated for anti-bacterial and anti-fungal activities using in vitro and in silico methods. The results revealed that the compounds 4b, 4d, 4h, 4i, and 4j exhibited the most promising anti-bacterial activity against S. aureus, B. subtilis, K. pneumoniae, S. typhi and P. mirabilis and anti-fungal activity against A. niger and A. flavus when compared with the standard drugs Norfloxacin and Nystatin at concentrations of 25, 50, 75 and 100 µg/mL. The rest of the title compounds have shown moderate activity against all the bacterial and fungal strains. Molecular docking studies revealed that the synthesized compounds have exhibited significant binding modes with high dock scores ranging from -7.2 to -9.5 against 3V2B protein when compared with the standard drugs Norfloxacin (-5.8) and Nystatin (-6.6) respectively. Hence, it is suggested that the synthesized phosphoramidate derivatives of 6-fluoro-3-(piperidin-4-yl)benzo[d]isoxazole will stand as the promising antimicrobial drug candidates in future.
