Methods: Schiff bases were synthesized by the reaction of naphtha[1,2-d]thiazol-2-amine with various substituted aromatic aldehydes. 2-(2'-Hydroxy)ben- zylideneaminonaphthothiazole was converted to its Co(Ⅱ), Ni(Ⅱ) and Cu(Ⅱ) metal complexes upon treatment with metal salts in ethanol. All the compounds were evaluated for their antibacterial activities by paper disc diffusion method with Gram positive Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis and Gram negative Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria. The minimum inhibitory concentrations of all the Schiff bases and metal complexes were determined by agar streak dilution method. Results: All the compounds moderately inhibited the growth of Cram positive and Gram negative bacteria. In the present study among all Schiff bases 2-(2'-hydroxy)benzylideneaminonaphthothiazole showed maximum inhibitory activity and among metal complexes Cu(Ⅱ) metal complex was found to be most potent. Conclusion: The results obtained validate the hypothesis that Schiff bases having substitution with halogens, hydroxyl group and nitro group at phenyl ring are required for the antibacterial activity while methoxy group at different positions in the aromatic ring has minimal role in the inhibitory activity. The results also indicated that the metal complexes are better antibacterial agents as compared to the Schiff bases.展开更多

Inhibitions of protein, RNA,and DNA syntheses were demonstrated, and a direct correlated dose-response relationshipon such effects was also evident. Inhibition of protein synthesis appeared to be a direet toxic effect of podophyllotoxin and occurred independently from that of RNA. The reduction of DNA synthesis was reflected by a reduction of H3-thymidine incorporation,which is believed to be the consequence of inhibition on the mitotic activity by podophyllotoxin展开更多

The complexes were Ln(bphse) 2(bipy)(ClO 4) 3· n H 2O and Ln 2(bphse) 3(phen) 2(ClO 4) 6·H 2O(where Ln=Nd, Eu and Gd; n =0~2). IR spectral data confirmed that the lanthanide ions were coordinated by oxygen atoms from bphse and nitrogen atoms from phen or bipy. Exitation and emission spectra of Eu complexes were measured and discussed.展开更多

A common fragmentation pathway with the loss of RNH2 from those schiff's bases quasi-molecular ions was observed and proposed on the basis of their MS/MS spectra data. This common pathway indicated that those Schiff's bases existed mainly as the enamine form not the imine form previously showed in most reports.展开更多

Results indicated that compounds 3, 14, 19, 27 and 28 have promising activity against Hela cell line with IC50 values of 2.41,3.06, 6.46, 2.22 and 6.25 mmol/L, respectively, in comparison to doxorubicin as a reference antitumor agent(IC50 2.05 mmol/L). In addition, compound 3 displayed excellent activity against COS-7 cell line with IC50 value of 4.31 mmol/L in comparison to doxorubicin(IC50 3.04 mmol/L). In the present work,structure based pharmacophore mapping, molecular docking, protein-ligand interaction, fingerprints and binding energy calculations were employed in a virtual screening strategy to identify the interaction between the compounds and the active site of the putative target, EGFR tyrosine kinase. Molecular properties, toxicity, drug-likeness, and drug score profiles of compounds 3, 14, 19, 27, 28 and 29 were also assessed.展开更多

Most of fast algorithms at present are based on solving l0or l1minimization problems and they are efficient in sparse recovery. However, the theoretically sufficient conditions on the sparsity of the signal for l0or l1minimization problems and algorithms are too strict. In some applications, there are signals with structures, i.e., the nonzero entries have some certain distribution. In this paper,we consider the uniqueness and feasible conditions for piecewise sparse recovery. Piecewise sparsity means that the sparse signal x is a union of several sparse sub-signals xi(i=1, 2,..., N),i.e., x=(x1T, x2T,..., xNT)T, corresponding to the measurement matrix A which is composed of union of bases A=[A1, A2,..., AN]. We introduce the mutual coherence for the sub-matrices Ai(i = 1, 2,..., N) by considering the block structure of A corresponding to piecewise sparse signal x, to study the new upper bounds of ‖x‖0(number of nonzero entries of signal) recovered by both l0and l1optimizations. The structured information of measurement matrix A is exploited to improve the sufficient conditions for successfully piecewise sparse recovery and also improve the reliability of l0and l1optimization models on recovering global sparse vectors.展开更多

Growth constant k and inhibition ratio I were calculated. Also,the antibacterial activity,the action characteristics and the structure-activity relationships of the compounds on S. aureus were analyzed. Results indicate that B,F show good antibacterial activity(IC50:293.6 mg · L-1 and 307.8 mg · L-1) ,D,E show moderate antibacterial activity(IC50:966.3 mg · L-1 and 1 126.7 mg · L-1) ,and A,C just show weak antibacterial activity(IC50 〉1 200 mg · L-1) . The I-c curves mainly present a straight line shape for B,D,E and F,but an inverse "S" shape for A and C. Structure-activity relationships analysis suggests that the species and position of the substituents determine the antibacterial activity of these Schiff bases,and the charge density distribution is one of the most important influencing factors.展开更多

The reduction of DNA synthesis was reflected by a reduction of H3-thymidine incorporation,which is believed to be the consequence of inhibition on the mitotic activity by podophyllotoxin
摘要Six lanthanide complexes with bis(phenylsulfinyl)ethane(bphse) and organic bases(phen: 1,10 phenanthroline and bipy: 2,2'-bipyridine) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, conductance and spectral (IR, UV Visible) data. The complexes were Ln(bphse) 2(bipy)(ClO 4) 3· n H 2O and Ln 2(bphse) 3(phen) 2(ClO 4) 6·H 2O(where Ln=Nd, Eu and Gd; n =0~2). IR spectral data confirmed that the lanthanide ions were coordinated by oxygen atoms from bphse and nitrogen atoms from phen or bipy. Exitation and emission spectra of Eu complexes were measured and discussed.
摘要From the comparison of correlation tensor in the theory of quantum network, the Alexander relation matrix in the theory of knot crystals and the identical inversion relations under the action of Pauli matrices, we show that there is a one to one correspondence between four Bell bases and four oriented links of the linkage in knot theory.
摘要To investigate the structural form of gossypol and gossypolone Schiff's bases, seven relevant Schiff's bases were synthesized and the electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS) with low-energy collision-induced dissociation was used to analyze their fragmentations. A common fragmentation pathway with the loss of RNH2 from those schiff's bases quasi-molecular ions was observed and proposed on the basis of their MS/MS spectra data. This common pathway indicated that those Schiff's bases existed mainly as the enamine form not the imine form previously showed in most reports.
摘要A series of novel imidazo[1,2-b]isoxazoles 3 and their Mannich bases 4–6 were synthesized via convenient reactions. The reaction of 3-aminoisoxazole 1 with substituted phenacyl bromides 2 in dry ethanol afforded the corresponding 6-methyl-3-aryl imidazo[1,2-b]isoxazoles 3 in good yields.Compounds 3 on treatment with 37% formaline and secondary amines furnished the corresponding novel Mannich bases viz., 6-methyl-3-aryl-2-(morpholine/pyrrolidin-1-yl/piperidin-1-yl)-methyl-imidazo[1,2-b]isoxazoles 4–6.
摘要A new series of benzothiazole Schiff bases 3–29 was synthesized and screened for antitumor activity against cervical cancer(Hela) and kidney fibroblast cancer(COS-7) cell lines. Results indicated that compounds 3, 14, 19, 27 and 28 have promising activity against Hela cell line with IC50 values of 2.41,3.06, 6.46, 2.22 and 6.25 mmol/L, respectively, in comparison to doxorubicin as a reference antitumor agent(IC50 2.05 mmol/L). In addition, compound 3 displayed excellent activity against COS-7 cell line with IC50 value of 4.31 mmol/L in comparison to doxorubicin(IC50 3.04 mmol/L). In the present work,structure based pharmacophore mapping, molecular docking, protein-ligand interaction, fingerprints and binding energy calculations were employed in a virtual screening strategy to identify the interaction between the compounds and the active site of the putative target, EGFR tyrosine kinase. Molecular properties, toxicity, drug-likeness, and drug score profiles of compounds 3, 14, 19, 27, 28 and 29 were also assessed.

摘要Sparse recovery(or sparse representation) is a widely studied issue in the fields of signal processing, image processing, computer vision, machine learning and so on, since signals such as videos and images, can be sparsely represented under some frames. Most of fast algorithms at present are based on solving l0or l1minimization problems and they are efficient in sparse recovery. However, the theoretically sufficient conditions on the sparsity of the signal for l0or l1minimization problems and algorithms are too strict. In some applications, there are signals with structures, i.e., the nonzero entries have some certain distribution. In this paper,we consider the uniqueness and feasible conditions for piecewise sparse recovery. Piecewise sparsity means that the sparse signal x is a union of several sparse sub-signals xi(i=1, 2,..., N),i.e., x=(x1T, x2T,..., xNT)T, corresponding to the measurement matrix A which is composed of union of bases A=[A1, A2,..., AN]. We introduce the mutual coherence for the sub-matrices Ai(i = 1, 2,..., N) by considering the block structure of A corresponding to piecewise sparse signal x, to study the new upper bounds of ‖x‖0(number of nonzero entries of signal) recovered by both l0and l1optimizations. The structured information of measurement matrix A is exploited to improve the sufficient conditions for successfully piecewise sparse recovery and also improve the reliability of l0and l1optimization models on recovering global sparse vectors.

摘要The growth of Staphylococcus aureus under the action of six kinds of Schiff bases(A,B,C,D,E,F) was studied by means of microcalorimetry. Growth constant k and inhibition ratio I were calculated. Also,the antibacterial activity,the action characteristics and the structure-activity relationships of the compounds on S. aureus were analyzed. Results indicate that B,F show good antibacterial activity(IC50:293.6 mg · L-1 and 307.8 mg · L-1) ,D,E show moderate antibacterial activity(IC50:966.3 mg · L-1 and 1 126.7 mg · L-1) ,and A,C just show weak antibacterial activity(IC50 〉1 200 mg · L-1) . The I-c curves mainly present a straight line shape for B,D,E and F,but an inverse "S" shape for A and C. Structure-activity relationships analysis suggests that the species and position of the substituents determine the antibacterial activity of these Schiff bases,and the charge density distribution is one of the most important influencing factors.

摘要Four novel Schiff bases were synthesized by the condensation reaction of 2-hydroxyl-3-nitrobenzaldehyde with either benzothiazoles or benzimidazolamines. The compounds 1–4 were characterized by spectroscopic and analytical methods. The crystal structures of 6-methoxy-1,3-benzothiazol-2-amine and compound 2 are reported only. The 6-methoxy-1,3-benzothiazol-2-amine was found to crystallize in the orthorhombic crystal system in the space group Pbca, having eight molecules in the unit cell, while compound 2 was found to crystallize in the monoclinic crystal system in the space group P2_1/c. The biological activities of these compounds were investigated by evaluating their antibacterial, antifungal, antimalarial, anti-HIV and anti-trypanosomiasis activities. These compounds displayed very interesting antibacterial, antifungal, antimalarial, anti-trypanosomiasis, anti-HIV and low cytotoxicity activity against HeLa cells.
