RESUMEN
Leishmaniasis and microbial infections are two of the major contributors to global mortality and morbidity rates. Hence, development of novel, effective and safer antileishmanial and antimicrobial agents having reduced side effects are major priority for researchers. Two series of N-substituted indole derivatives i.e. N-substituted indole based chalcones (12a-g) and N-substituted indole based hydrazide-hydrazones (18a-g, 19a-f, 21 a-g) were synthesized. The synthesized compounds were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, Mass and FT-IR spectral data. Further these derivatives were evaluated for their antimicrobial potential against Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas putida and Candida viswanathii, and antileishmanial potential against promastigotes of Leishmania donovani. Compounds 18b, 18d and 19d exhibited significant activity with an IC50 of 0.19 ± 0.03 µM, 0.14 ± 0.02 µM and 0.16 ± 0.06 µM against B. subtilis which was comparable to chloramphenicol (IC50 of 0.25 ± 0.03 µM). Compounds 12b and 12c exhibited an IC50 of 24.2 ± 3.5 µM and 21.5 ± 2.1 µM in the antileishmanial assay. Binding interactions of indole based hydrazide-hydrazones were studied with nitric oxide synthase in silico in order to understand the structural features responsible for activity.

Bepotastine (BPT) is a H1-receptor antagonist. It is used as a besilate salt in ophthalmic solution for allergic conjunctivitis and orally for the treatment of allergic rhinitis and urticaria/pruritus. Its systematic forced degradation study is unreported. The same was carried out in different conditions prescribed by International Conference on Harmonisation. The stressed solutions were subjected to reversed phase liquid chromatographic analysis, and BPT was observed to be labile under photobasic condition only, yielding 5 photodegradation products. The structures of the latter were elucidated from data generated by liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry and multistage mass spectrometry. Of the 5, 4 products were further isolated and subjected to nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy to justify the proposed structures. Two of them, with similar accurate mass, were additionally and unambiguously characterized from their heteronuclear multiple bond correlation data, hydrogen deuterium exchange mass data, and quantum chemical analysis using density functional theory calculations. One degradation product had a structure that could only be explained by unusual rearrangement involving conversions of N-oxide into hydroxylamine, similar to Meisenheimer rearrangement. The physicochemical, as well as absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity properties of BPT and its characterized photodegradation products were evaluated in silico by ADMET Predictor™ software.

The present study was to investigate the degradation profile of sorafenib tosylate (SORA), a potent oral multi-kinase inhibitor under various stress conditions as per ICH (Q1A (R2)) guidelines. Separation of SORA and its degradation products (DP-1-DP-5) was achieved on Acquity UPLC BEH C18 (100â¯mmâ¯×â¯2.1â¯mmâ¯×â¯1.7⯵m) column using a gradient elution of 0.1% formic acid and acetonitrile at a flow rate of 0.3â¯mL/min within 12â¯min. High resolution quadruple time-of-flight mass spectrometer (Q-TOF/MS) was utilized for characterization of all DPs. In ESI/CID-MS/MS experiments, the protonated DP-1 and DP-2 exhibited few interesting product ions which provide a compelling evidence for the compounds to undergo gas phase rearrangement reaction justified by its mechanistic explanation in support with density functional theory (DFT). In-source collision-induced dissociation (IS-CID) fragmentation using ESI/APCI-MS analysis exhibited the formation of N-deoxygenated product ion peak corresponds to pyridine N-oxide moiety as in DP-5. Further, major hydrolytic DPs (DP-2 and DP-3) were isolated on preparative HPLC and structural elucidation was done using ID NMR (1H, 13C and DEPT-135) experiments. In vitro cytotoxicity study for SORA and its isolated DPs were assessed by observing morphological changes in HepG2 cell lines under phase-contrast microscopy and MTT assay. Taken together, it was known that DP-2 and DP-3 were less potent with a cell viability of more than 90% and IC50 >50 µM in comparison with SORA (IC50 = 2.99⯱â¯0.35 µM). The developed method was validated in terms of specificity, limit of detection, limit of quantification, linearity, accuracy, precision and robustness.

A serendipitous discovery of [1,3]-sulfonyl migration has been made in the two-component reaction of azomethine imine and allenoates. Current methodology involving N-S bond cleavage and C-S bond formation provided easy access to biologically important arylsulfonylmethyl substituted pyrazolo[1,5-c]quinazolines. Subsequently, a one-pot sequential protocol has been developed from the easily available starting material. The mechanistic investigation using quantum chemical methods revealed that the sulfonyl migration step is a concerted [1,3]-sigmatropic shift.
RESUMEN
Azines are organic molecules which bear the C[double bond, length as m-dash]N-N[double bond, length as m-dash]C functional unit. In the recent past, azines have received increased attention due to the recognition of their biological, chemical and materials properties. Azines have been conventionally synthesised by the condensation of hydrazine with ketones and aldehydes, and many alternate routes are also available. Azines have been extensively studied to investigate the presence or absence of conjugation with the help of computational studies and crystal structure analysis owing to their importance in nonlinear optics. The tautomerism in azines is a topic of contemporary interest. Herein, we present a review of recent advances in the structure and electronic structure properties of azines along with information on the modern methods of their synthesis and application as precursors in generating heterocycles in organic synthesis and in medicinal chemistry. A few applications of azines in the field of materials chemistry in developing metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs), energetic materials and chemosensors are also included.
RESUMEN
The present study focused upon the forced degradation behaviour of fosamprenavir (FPV), an antiretroviral drug. A total of six degradation products (DPs) were separated on a non-polar stationary phase by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). For the characterization, comprehensive mass fragmentation pathway of the drug was initially established using high resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) and multi-stage tandem mass spectrometry (MSn) data. Subsequently, LC-HRMS and LC-MSn studies were carried out on the forced degraded samples containing the DPs. Five DPs were isolated and subjected to extensive 1D (1H, 13C, and DEPT-135 (distortionless enhancement by polarization)) and 2D (COSY (correlation spectroscopy), TOCSY (total correlation spectroscopy), HSQC (heteronuclear single quantum coherence) and HMBC (heteronuclear multiple bond correlation)) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies to ascertain their structures, while one degradation product was subjected to LC-NMR studies, as it could not be isolated. The collated information was helpful in characterization of all the DPs, and to delineate the degradation pathway of the drug. Additionally, physicochemical, as well as absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity (ADMET) properties of the drug and its DPs were evaluated in silico by ADMET Predictor™ software.

We herein report for the first time an unusual decomposition of 2-nitrophenyl-substituted N-formyl pyrazolines under Bechamp reduction condition employed to yield 2-aryl quinolines exclusively instead of pyrazolo[1,5-c]quinazolines. The reaction investigation suggests acid-mediated cleavage of 1 followed by a retro-Michael addition, and a subsequent in situ intramolecular reductive cyclization through a modified Friedlander mechanism afforded 2-aryl quinolines (2) in good yields. The proposed mechanistic pathways were supported via experimental evidence and density functional theory studies. B3LYP/6-31+G(d) analysis indicated the involvement of trans-2-hydroxyaminochalcone as a key intermediate and its isomerization and cyclization, leading to unusual product formation.
