Their yield was high. The monomers synthesized were characterized by IR, 1H NMR and MS spectroscopy. Cha-racterization data are in agreement with the proposed structures of the products. These five compounds exhibit bacterial inhibition and N-[4-hydroxy-2-methyl-5-(methylthio)benzyl]benzamide(HMMBBA), for instance, shows that the minimal inhibitory concentrations(MIC) of HMMBBA are 0.125 and 0.25 mg/mL on Staphyloccocus aureus and Escherichia coli, respectively. A static test site was set up in the eighth harbor to investigate the antifouling effectiveness of the five new antifoulants. Five-month exposure experiments were performed on sets of panels coated with each of antifouling coatings, and the results were compared to that of the test panel without antifouling coating. Test boards with antifouling coating were covered with just a macroscopic fouling organism such as Balanus. The results of the present paper demonstrate that new antifoulants represent an alternative to the biocidal antifouling paint.展开更多

The target compounds were synthesized from substituted aniline through Michael addition, cyclization, Mannich reaction and condensation with 4-substituted semicarbazides, and the structures were confirmed by mass spectrometry(MS) and 1H NMR. The antifungal assay was carried out in vitro by two-fold dilution. The result shows that all the compounds are of antifungal activities against the tested fungi at different levels.展开更多

The coagulation activities of the compounds were evaluated by an MOE(molecular operating environment) docking technique and coagulation test. The results obtained from molecular docking show that the interactions between the compounds and thrombin exhibit procoagulant activity in combination with an improved combinatory effect. Moreover, the results of in vitro coagulation tests show that the L-histidine amide derivatives feature coagulant activities in common coagulation pathways. Compared with the blank control group, the optimal shortening rates of compounds 1-3 were 39.08%(0.5 mmol/L), 22.94%(1.0 mmol/L) and 15.38%(0.0625 mmol/L), respectively.展开更多

To find more novel structural pyrazole carboxamides, a novel series of 3-(trifluoromethyl)-lH-pyrazole-4-carboxamide compounds were prepared from ethyl 4,4,4-trifluoroace- toacetate and triethyl orthoformate as starting materials. All the products were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), 13C NMR, 19F NMR and mass spectrography. The bioassay results showed these fluorine-containing pyrazole carboxamides have a weak fungicidal activity but some of them exhibit a good nematocidal activity against M. incognita.展开更多

It is revealed that the key for the formation of this kind of weak intramolecular hydrogen bonding in X-ray crystal structures is to suppress the competition of strong intermolecular N H···O C hydrogen bonding of the amide unit. For amides with identical backbones, the bonding capacity of halogen atoms as hydrogen bonding acceptors is in the order of F>Cl>Br>I, which is in accordance with their electronegativity strength. Generally, the five-membered hydrogen bonding is easier to form than the six-membered one.展开更多

Four quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models of the hallucinogenic activity for phenylalkylamines and tryptamines were obtained by employing multiple linear regression (MLR) method. The QSAR analysis indicated that electron-related descriptors were major contributors to the hallucinogenic activities of phenylalkylamines and tryp- tamines. In addition, electron-unrelated descriptors have some impact on the hallucinogenic activities of phenylal- kylamines. Based on the results of QSAR study, a novel Conformation Complementary Judgement, Transformation and Induction (CCJTI) model had been proposed to explain different action mechanisms of phenylalkylamines and tryptamines with their target receptors. It was concluded that phenylalkylamines might combine with receptor by electronic effect, but steric factor could affect it also, whereas tryptamines could act only through the electronic effect.展开更多

The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by means of 1H NMR, 13C NMR, LC-MS, elemental analysis and IR. The bioassay results indicate that when against Digitaria sanguinalis and Echinochloa crus-galli, (R)-N-(propargyloxy)-2-{4-[(6-chloroquinoxalin-2-yl) oxy] phenoxy}propanamide(1m)(IC50=6.8 and 6.5 g/hm2, respectively) and (R)-N-(allyloxy)-2-{4-[(6-chloroquinoxalin-2-yl) oxy]phenoxy}propanamide(1r)(IC50=7.4 and 6.0 g/hm2, respectively) are much more effective than commercial aryloxyphenoxypropionic ester herbicide clodinafop-propargyl(IC50=46.5 and 14.6 g/hm2, respectively). The results of crop selectivity show that compounds 1m and 1r are safe to soybean, rape and cotton and can be used as herbicides for soybean, rape and cotton crop.展开更多

Preliminary bioassays revealed that these compounds not only exhibited favourable antiviral activities toward tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) but also demonstrated sustained inhibition activities against plant pathogenic bacteria, including Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae, Ralstonia solanacearum, and Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. cit- ri. Among the derivatives, TC8 and TC20 exerted the strongest curative activities against TMV, with half-maximal effective concentration (EC50) values of 239.5 and 236.2μg/mL, respectively, which were comparable to that of ningnanmycin (EC50=273.2μg/mL). Given their simple synthesis, the target compounds can serve as alternative antiviral candidates.展开更多
