Facing climate change in wine industry comprises the implementation of strategies, such as to reduce alcohol in wines, promoted by abnormal increment of sugar levels in wine grapes. The present work discusses the first industrial-scale use of specific yeast strains able to produce wine with reduced alcoholic concentration. Reduction of alcohol content and quantification of key metabolites associated to oenological practice and/or quality were simultaneously measured in a “one-shot” way with proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy. Novel relevant metabolites were revealed with the use of a two-dimensional 1H-13C HSQC multipresat correlation spectroscopy, whereas a detailed methodological NMR description is stressed, towards revealing novel resonances within the NMR signature. The use of multitask analytical methods to simultaneously describe alcohol reduction and NMR targeting, completes the portfolio of NMR solutions recently proposed to the World Organisation of Vine and Wine for as well quantify aging and varieties.

Coordination-driven self-assembly is an effective synthetic tool for the construction of spatially and electronically tunable supramolecular coordination complexes (SCCs), which are useful in various applications. Herein, we report the synthesis of a two-dimensional discrete metalla-rectangle [(η6-p-cymene)4Ru4(C6H2O4)2(2)2](CF3SO3)4 (3) by the reaction of a dinuclear half-sandwich ruthenium (II) complex [Ru2(η6-p-cymene)2(C6H2O4)Cl2] (1) and bis-pyridyl amide linker (2) in the presence of AgO3SCF3. This cationic ruthenium metalla-rectangle (3) has been isolated as its triflate salt and characterized by analytical techniques including elemental analysis, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-NMR), carbon nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (13C-NMR), 1H-1H correlation spectroscopy (COSY), 1H-1H nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY), diffusion ordered spectroscopy (DOSY), and high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HR-ESI-MS). Significantly, the 2D cationic ruthenium metalla-rectangle showed better anticancer activity towards three different cell lines (A549, Caki-1 and Lovo) as compared with the parent ruthenium complex (1) and the commercially used drug, cisplatin.

A simple and highly efficient protocol for the synthesis of derivatives 7, 7-dimethyl-4-phenyl-2-thioxo-2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8-hexahydro-1H-quinazoline-5-one from 5, 5-dimethyl cyclohexane-1, 3-dione (4a–4h) (dimedone) has been described. The aryl aldehydes were substituted with thiourea in the presence of synthesized zinc ferrite nanocatalyst, which increased the yield under reflux through condensation, followed by cyclization to give desired products. The other advantages are that it is eco-friendly and economically affordable for large-scale production. Structural validation and characterization of all the newly synthesized compounds were evaluated by spectral analysis (mass spectrometry, proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1HNMR), and Carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance(13CNMR)spectroscopies. The structure of antibacterial and antifungal assays was performed with the newly synthesized compounds. The antimicrobial activity of title compounds possessing electron-withdrawing groups such as (4e–4h) (Cl, Br, and cyano group) exhibited more active potential than the electron-donating groups, C6H5,4-C6H4, 3-OC2H5-4OH-C6H3, etc., (4a–4d) containing moiety.
