Methylene blue (MB), an organic thiazine dye, has numerous industrial and medical applications. However, MB is a wastewater contaminant that harmful to humans aquatic life. Hence, its removal from water bodies essential. In this work, five novel deep eutectic solvents (DESs) were synthesized using different precursors, screened, studied for the extraction of methylene (MB) aqueous solution liqu...

Several new and know 6-(4-substituted phenyl)-4-(4-substituted phenyl)-2-phenyl-6H-1,3-thiazine (or selenazine) (Z4B7, Z4D5, Z4B7' Z4D5') were prepared by the 1,4-Michael addition reaction of chalcone derivatives with thiobenzamide or phenylselenocarboxamide in basic medium (where chalcones was formed Claisen-Schimidt condensation aromatic aldehydes 4-substituted acetophenone presence sodium hy...

Lanthionine (Lan), the thioether analog of cystine, is a natural but nonproteogenic amino acid thought to form naturally in mammals through promiscuous reactivity of the transsulfuration enzyme cystathionine-beta-synthase (CbetaS). Lanthionine exists at appreciable concentrations in mammalian brain, where it undergoes aminotransferase conversion to yield an unusual cyclic thioether, lanthionine...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Methylene blue (MB), a thiazine dye is used in the treatment of various methemoglobinaemias. However, sporadic reports have shown some antimalarial therapeutic effect when administered to patients with clinical manifestations of malaria. The inhibitory concentration of schizont maturation and antimalarial activity of MB have not been fully elucidated. The present study t...
