: Tuberculosis remains a highly infectious disease across the world. In the identification of new antitubercular agents, coumarin clubbed thiadiazole amides have been synthesized and evaluated for in vitro antitubercular activity. Due to the growing concern about chemicals and their impact on the environment, greener and faster reaction conditions needed to be incorporated. Therefore, we used TBTU as a coupling reagent for efficient and facile synthesis of substituted-N-(5-((7-methyl-2-oxo-2H-chromes-4-yl)-methyl)-1,3, 4 - thiadiazol-2-yl)-benzamide 4a-j with good yields up to 95% in mild reaction condition. All the synthesized compounds were evaluated in vitro for antitubercular activity against the H37Rv strain of M.Tuberculosis. Compounds 4c, 4f, and 4j were found active at 25 µg/mL against M. tb H37Rv. Electron withdrawing substituents present on aromatic side-chain showed promising anti-tubercular activity.

Introduction: Miuraenamides belong to marine natural compounds with interesting biological properties. Materials and Methods: They initiate polymerization of monomeric actin and therefore show high cytotoxicity by influencing the cytoskeleton. New derivatives of the miuraenamides have been synthesized containing a N-methylated amide bond instead of the more easily hydrolysable ester in the natural products. Results: Incorporation of an aromatic side chain onto the C-terminal amino acid of the tripeptide fragment also led to highly active new miuraenamides. Conclusion: We could show that the ester bond of the natural product miuraenamide can be replaced by an N-methyl amide. The yields in the cyclization step are high and generally much better that with the corresponding esters. On the other hand, the biological activity of the new amide analogs are lower compared to the natural products, but the activity can significantly be increased by incorporation of a p-nitrophenyl group at the C-terminus of the peptide fragment.

Site-directed mutagenesis has been performed in the human transforming growth factor alpha gene. When tyrosine 38 is mutated into phenylalanine or tryptophane, biological activity is retained. In contrast, other alterations between cysteine 34 and cysteine 43 and disruption of disulfide bonds 8 to 21 and 34 to 43 resulted in loss of activities. The presence of an aromatic side chain at position 38 of transforming growth factor alpha seems to be essential for its activity.

The origin of the positive Soret Cotton effect of myoglobin was calculated by Hsu and WOODY on the basis of a mechanism taking into account the coupling of the Soret and aromatic side-chain π—π* transitions. HUBER and coworkers have worked out the atomic coordinates of a monomeric insect hemoglobin which exhibits a negative Soret Cotton effect.It seemed of some importance to examine the capability of this mechanism to explain the observed inversion of sign. The calculations resulted indeed in a negative total rotational strength (—0,2 DBM), the main contributions arising from phenylalanine residues.

Photochemical Cleavage

Aromatic side-chain oxadiazole polymer linked with 9,9'-dioctylfluorene was successfully synthesized via Suzuki coupling reaction. Hydroxyphenyl group was attached in the 2-position of the oxadiazole unit in the polymer side chain to control the optical properties of the polymer. We confirmed the presence of the t-butoxycarbonyl group on the hydroxyl group using thermogravimetric analysis, which was incorporated to avoid side reaction during polymerization. We also performed the simple and easy fabrication method for the dual fluorescence image using photochemical cleavage of the t-butoxycarbonyl group from the polymer to induce fluorescence color changes before and after UV irradiation.
