QSAR and Pharmacophore Studies of Thiazolidine-4-carboxylic Acid Derivatives as Novel Influenza Neuraminidase Inhibitors Using HQSAR, Topomer CoMFA and CoMSIA

In order to understand the chemical-biological interactions governing their activities toward neuraminidase （NA）, QSAR models of 28 thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid derivatives with inhibitory influenza A virus were developed.

Quantum Chemical Studies on the Corrosion Inhibition of Mild Steel by Piperidin-4-One Derivatives in 1 M H₃PO₄

The corrosion inhibition properties of 2,6-diphenylpiperidin-4-one (DPP) (1A) and 2,6-diphenyldihydro-2H-thiopyran-4(3H)-one (DPDT) (1B) for mild steel in 1 M phosphoric acid were studied using weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopic techniques.
