[ 1 ] - Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Novel Quinoline Derivatives as Antibacterial and Antifungal Agents

Vilsmeier Several diamide derivatives containing 2-chloroquinoline scaffolds were synthesized via Ugi reaction of 2-chloroquinoline-3-carboxaldehydes, amines, carboxylic acids and isocyanides. The diversity of these quinolinyl Ugi-adducts was increased by using 2-chloroquinoline-3-carboxylic acids as a source of acid. Among them, compounds 2d, 2n, 2p, 4a, 4c and<strong...

[ 2 ] - Effects of Nonionic Surfactants on Xanthan Gum Production: a Survey on Cellular Interactions

Background: Xanthomonas campestris is a biopolymer producing gram negative bacterium. Production of xanthan biopolymer can be affected by different extrinsic factors as well as surfactants. Hitherto, effects of nonionic surfactants on xanthan production have been studied in a limited number of articles.Objective: In the present study, nonionic surfactants...

[ 3 ] - Pseudo-Five-Component Condensation for the Diversity-Oriented Synthesis of Novel Indoles and Quinolines Containing Pseudo-Peptides (Tricarboxamides)

A novel series of indole and quinoline tricarboxamides were synthesized using simple and efficient one-pot pseudo-five-component reactions of 2-formylindole or 2-chloro-3-formyl quinolines, isocyanides, amines, and Meldrum’s acid as a CH-acid in CH2Cl2 at room temperature. This conversion has been achieved via the construction of new bonds including two C-C bonds, two ...
