- Synthesis and evaluation of some benzothiazole derivatives as antidiabetic agents
-
Objective: The objective of the present research investigation involves synthesis and biological evaluation of antidiabetic activity of benzothiazole derivatives. Methods: A novel series of benzothiazole derivatives 7(a-l) were synthesised and synthesised compounds were characterised for different physical and chemical properties like molecular formula, molecular weight, melting point, percentage yield, Rf value, IR,1HNMR,13CNMR and mass spectroscopy. The newly synthesised benzothiazole derivatives were subsequently assayed in vivo to investigate their hypoglycemic activity by the alloxan-induced diabetic model in rats. Results: All the synthesised derivatives showed significant biological efficacy. The compound 7d at 350 mg/kg exerted maximum glucose lowering effects whereas 7c showed minimum glucose lowering effects. All the compounds were effective, and experimental results were statistically significant at p0.01 and p0.05 level. Conclusion: From the results, it is clear that compound 7d demonstrated potent anti-diabetic activity and would be of better use in drug development to combat the metabolic disorder in future.

- Continuous-flow hydrogenation of olefins and nitrobenzenes catalyzed by platinum nanoparticles dispersed in an amphiphilic polymer
-
A method for the flow hydrogenation of olefins and nitrobenzenes in a continuous-flow reactor containing platinum nanoparticles dispersed on an amphiphilic polystyrene-poly(ethylene glycol) resin (ARP-Pt) was developed. The hydrogenation of olefins and nitrobenzenes was completed within 31 seconds in the continuous-flow system containing ARP-Pt, giving the corresponding hydrogenated products in up to 99% yield with good chemoselectivity. Moreover, long-term (63-70 h) continuous-flow hydrogenation of styrene and nitrobenzene produced more than ten grams of ethylbenzene and aniline, respectively, without significant loss of catalytic activity. The flow hydrogenation system provides an efficient and practical method for the chemoselective reduction of olefins and nitrobenzenes. This journal is

- The ortho effect on the acidic and alkaline hydrolysis of substituted formanilides
-
The kinetics of formanilides hydrolysis were determined under first-order conditions in hydrochloric acid (0.01-8 M, 20-60°C) and in hydroxide solutions (0.01-3 M, 25 and 40°C). Under acidic conditions, second-order specific acid catalytic constants were used to construct Hammett plots. The ortho effect was analyzed using the Fujita-Nishioka method. In alkaline solutions, hydrolysis displayed both first- and second-order dependence in the hydroxide concentration. The specific base catalytic constants were used to construct Hammett plots. Ortho effects were evaluated for the first-order dependence on the hydroxide concentration. Formanilide hydrolyzes in acidic solutions by specific acid catalysis, and the kinetic study results were consistent with the AAC2 mechanism. Ortho substitution led to a decrease in the rates of reaction due to steric inhibition of resonance, retardation due to steric bulk, and through space interactions. The primary hydrolytic pathway in alkaline solutions was consistent with a modified BAC2 mechanism. The Hammett plots for hydrolysis of meta- and para-substituted formanilides in 0.10 M sodium hydroxide solutions did not show substituent effects; however, ortho substitution led to a decrease in rate constants proportional to the steric bulk of the substituent.

- Kinetics and mechanism of the anilinolysis of dicyclohexyl phosphinic chloride in acetonitrile
-
The nucleophilic substitution reactions of dicyclohexyl phosphinic chloride [3; cHex2P(=O)Cl] with substituted anilines (XC6H 4NH2) and deuterated anilines (XC6H 4ND2) are investigated kinetically in acetonitrile at 60.0 °C. The anilinolysis rate is too slow to be rationalized by the stereoelectronic effects. The rate is contrary to expectations for the electronic influence of the two ligands and exhibits exceptionally great negative deviation from the Taft's eq. The deuterium kinetic isotope effects (DKIEs) involving deuterated anilines invariably change from primary normal (kH/kD > 1; max kH/kDt = 1.10 with X = 4-MeO) with the strongly basic anilines (X = 4-MeO, 4-Me, 3-Me) to secondary inverse (kH/kDt H/k Dt = 0.673 with X = 3-Cl) with the weakly basic anilines (X = H, 4-F, 4-Cl, 3-Cl). A concerted SN2 mechanism is proposed on the basis of both secondary inverse and primary normal DKIEs. The obtained DKIEs imply that the fraction of a frontside attack increases as the aniline becomes more basic. A hydrogen-bonded, four-center-type transition state is suggested for a frontside attack, while the trigonal bipyramidal pentacoordinate transition state is suggested for a backside attack.

- Kinetics and mechanism of the aminolysis of dimethyl and methyl phenyl phosphinic chlorides with anilines
-
The reactions of dimethyl phosphinic chloride (1) and methyl phenyl phosphinic chloride (2) with X-anilines have been studied kinetically in acetonitrile at 15.0 and 55.0 °C, respectively. The deuterium kinetic isotope effects (KIEs) involving deuterated aniline nucleophiles (XC 6H4ND2) are also reported for the same reactions. The obtained KIEs for 1 are secondary inverse (kH/k D=0.703-0.899H/kD=1.62-2.10> 1). A concerted mechanism involving predominantly backside nucleophilic attack is proposed for the anilinolysis of 1. A concerted mechanism involving predominantly frontside attack via a hydrogen-bonded four-center-type transition state is proposed for the anilinolysis of 2. The degree of steric hindrance is the major factor that determines both the reactivity of the phosphinates and the direction of the nucleophilic attack on the phosphinates. Copyright
