Isatin (1H-indole-2,3-dione) and its analog, are versatile substrates which acts as a precursor for large number of pharmacologically active compounds, thus having a significant importance in the synthesis of different heterocyclic compound.Isatin shows varity of biological activities such as antimicrobial, anticancer, antiviral, anticonvulsant, antiinflammatory and analgesic.This review focuse...

A bishydrazone was obtained by the condensation of isatin monohydrazone with 2hydroxyquinoline-3-carbaldehyde, which formed a series of complexes with Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II). The ligand and its metal complexes were characterized on the basis of elemental analysis, conductance data, magnetic susceptibility measurements, IR, UV-Vis, mass, H NMR, ESR and XRD studies. By ...

In the present study a series of Schiff bases of indoline-2,3-dione were synthesized and investigated for their Mtb gyrase inhibitory activity. Promising inhibitory activity was demonstrated with some of these derivatives, which exhibited IC(50) values ranging from 50-157 mM. The orientation and the ligand-receptor interactions of such molecules within the Mtb DNA gyrase A subunit active site w...

Ethyl imidate hydrochlorides 1 were prepared by passing HCl gas through solutions of substituted benzyl cyanides and absolute ethanol. Ethoxycarbonylhydrazones 2 were synthesized from the reaction of compounds 1 with ethyl carbazate. Treatment of 2 with hydrazine hydrate leads to the formation of substituted 4-amino-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazole-5-ones 3. Isatin and 5-chloroisatin were added to...

The effects of the composition and rheology of the fermentation medium on the antibiotic production by Streptomyces hygroscopicus CH-7 were studied. To increase the yields of hexaene H-85 and elaiophylin, the basic fermentation medium was reformulated using different carbon (glucose, lactose, ribose, fructose and trehalose) and nitrogen (isatin-Schiff bases) sources. The maximum yields of hexae...

Three new Schiff bases of N-substituted isatin L(I), L(II,) and L(III) = Schiff base of N-acetylisatin, N-benzylisatin, and N-benzoylisatin, respectively, and their metal complexes C(1a,b) = [Co(2)(L(I))(2)Cl(3)]Cl, C(2) = [Ni(L(I))(2)Cl(2)]0.4BuOH, C(3) = [CuL(I)Cl(H(2)O)]Cl 0.5BuOH, C(4) = [Pd(L(I))(2)Cl]Cl, C(5) = [Pt(L(1))(2)Cl(2)]Cl(2) 1.8EtOH.H(2)O, C(6a) = [CoL(II)Cl]Cl 0.4H(2)O 0.3DMSO,...

the vo(iv) complexes of tridentate ono schiff base ligands derived from 2- aminobenzoicacid and salicylaldehyde derivatives were synthesized and characterized by ir, uv–vis and elemental analysis. electrochemical properties of the vanadyl complexes were investigated by cyclic voltammetry. a good linear correlation was observed between the oxidation potentials and the electron-withdrawing charac...
