ABSTRACTObjective: Fundamental research in pharmacy and medicine have shown that drugs, which are based on nucleus of the 1,2,4-triazole, have a widerange of biological effects. Derivatives of this heterocyclic system have well-known Ukrainian clinicians and the world scientists due to its antifungal,antidepressant, anticancer, cardio- and hepatoprotective properties. The pharmacological activity of most organic compounds depends on severaldifferent factors, including bioavailability of the substance. Hence, it is very important to consider the results of the synthetic and biological researchesand established dependence of structure on the biological action when scientists model new molecules or improve pharmacological properties of anexisting structure. One of the important social and economic problems of the pharmaceutical industry is the implementation in practice of new drugsthat could compete with expensive imported drugs. In recent times, 1,2,4-triazole-3-thioderivatives take attention of compatriots and scientists offoreign countries who are working on finding bioactive compounds including heterocyclic systems. The structure, physical and chemical properties,pharmacological activities of 1,2,4-triazoles, and their 3-thioderivatives are understudied. Hence, the study of that will be actually and novelty formodern science. The main purpose of our research is synthesis of 3-alkylsulfonyl-5-(chinoline-2-yl, 2-hydroxychinoline-4-yl)-4-R-2,4-dihydro-3N1,2,4-triazoles,studyingof its physicaland chemical properties.Methods: The initial compounds have been synthesized previously using known in literature techniques. Oxidation of the sulfur atom of thesynthesized compounds to the hexavalent condition was carried out adding solution of hydrogen peroxide.Results: The structure of the obtained compounds was determined with the modern physical and chemical analysis methods: Element analysis,infrared-spectrophotometry, and their individuality with thin layer chromatography.Conclusions: Prospect of the further researches is determination of acute toxicity and next studying of pharmacological properties of the synthesizedcompounds.Keywords: 1,2,4-triazoles, Synthesis, Chemical properties, Chinoline.1 


The asbestos minerals fall into two groups of differing genetic, physical and chemical properties, their only common feature being their fibrous nature. Chrysotile is a sheet silicate, having a layered structure in the form of a scroll or ture, while the amphibole fibres are chain silicates with a lath-like structure. The biological effects of asbestos depend firstly on its ability to form very small fibres capable of aerial suspension, inhalation and subsequent deposition in the minutest airways of the lung; secondly on the texture of these fibres and their ability to penetrate living tissue; and thirdly on their chemistry, not only considering their resistance to decomposition, but the way in which they may react with or adsorb other compounds. This paper compares the physical and chemical properties of asbestos fibres insofar as these may influence biological activity and attempts to underline those contrasting features which may relate to the degrees of activity of the major types of asbestos.

In connection with the spectrophotometric study of population-type characteristics of various kinds of stars, a statistical analysis of kinematical and distribution parameters of the same stars is performed at the Toruń Observatory. This has a twofold purpose: first, to provide a practical guide in selecting stars for observing programmes, second, to contribute to the understanding of relations existing between the physical and chemical properties of stars and their kinematics and distribution in the Galaxy.

Organic farming is one of the management strategies that improve productivity of marginal uplands. The study aimed to: (1) evaluate effects of various organic-based fertilizers on the growth and yield of corn; (2) determine the appropriate combination for optimum yield; and (3) assess changes on the soil physical and chemical properties. Experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design, with 3 replications and 7 treatments, namely; T0=(0-0-0); T1=1t ha-1 Evans + 45-30-30kg N, P2O5, K2O ha-1; T2=t ha-1 Wellgrow + 45-30-30kg N, P2O5, K2O ha-1; T3=15t ha-1 chicken dung; T4=10t ha-1 chicken dung + 45-30-30kg N, P2O5, K2O ha-1; T5=15t ha-1 Vermicast; and T6=10t ha-1 Vermicast + 45-30-30kg N, P2O5, K2O ha-1. Application of organic-based fertilizers with or without inorganic fertilizers promoted growth of corn than the control. But due to high infestation of corn silk beetle(Monolepta bifasciata Horns), its grain yield was greatly affected. In the second cropping, except for Evans, any of these fertilizers applied alone or combined with 45-30-30kg N, P2O5, K2O ha-1 appeared appropriate in increasing corn earyield. Soil physical and chemical properties changed with addition of organic fertilizers. While bulk density decreased irrespective of treatments, pH, total N, available P and exchangeable K generally increased more with chicken dung application.
