Computational investigations of 18-electron triatomic sulfur–nitrogen anions
2018
MRCI-SD/def2-QZVP and PBE0/def2-QZVP calculations have been employed for the analysis of geometries, stabilities, and bonding of isomers of the 18-electron anions N2S2−, NS2−, and NSO−. Isomers of the isoelectronic neutral molecules SO2, S2O, S3, and O3 are included for comparison. The sulfur-centered acyclic NSN2−, NSS−, and NSO− anions are the most stable isomers of their respective molecular compositions. However, the nitrogen-centered isomers SNS− and SNO− lie close enough in energy to their more stable counterparts to allow their occurrence. The experimental structural information, where available, is in good agreement with the optimized bond parameters. The bonding in all investigate…
Anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of betalains from Cactus Pear
2004
Anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of Betalains from Cactus Pear. C. Gentile1, A. Marconi1, M. A. Livrea2, G. Uzan1, P. D’Alessio1. 1 Inserm U602, Paris, France. 2 Dip. Farmacochimico, Tossicologico e Biologico, Università Palermo, Italy. Betalains of phytochemical origin, known as potent radical-scavengers in chemical and biological systems, have been tested in a model of inflammation. New phytochemicals are continuously inspected for potential pharmacological applications. The red betanin and the yellow indicaxanthin have recently been isolated and characterized from Cactus Pear. Reactive Oxygen Species may be toxic or display a regulatory character. During the inflammation rea…
Bioactive molecules from soil and marine bacteria: new potential applications

Biological activities of the extracts from macroalgae Carpodesmia crinita, Carpodesmia brachycarpa, Asparagopsis taxiformis
2023
Marine species represent a rich source of biologically active products that can be used in various fields. Among them, marine algae produce numerous secondary metabolites responsible for different biological activities such as: immunomodulatory [1], antioxidant [2], and antimicrobial [3]. The aim of this study was chemically characterizing the extracts of three macroalgae species: Carpodesmia crinite (Duby) Orellana & Sansón, 2019, Carpodesmia brachycarpa (J. Agardh) Orellana & Sansón 2019, Asparagopsis taxiformis (Delile) Trevisan 1845 and evaluate their biological activities. The characterization of the secondary metabolites was performed by HPLC-MS and the results obtained showed…
ANTIMICROBIAL ACTIVITY FROM POLYPEPTIDE-RICH EXTRACTS OF THE SEAGRASS POSIDONIA OCEANICA
2021
The present study was carried out to assess the antibacterial, antifungal and antibiofilm properties of polypeptide-rich extracts isolated from green leaves and rhizomes of Mediterranean seagrass Posidonia oceanica (L. Delile) (Posidoniaceae). The seagrass was collected, washed with freshwater, grinded with liquid nitrogen in order to obtain fine powders that were exposed to extraction by acetic acid and antiproteases. The crude extracts isolated from leaves and rhizomes of P. oceanica were subjected to microbiological assays to evaluate the antibacterial, antifungal and antibiofilm activity of polypeptide fraction against two reference bacterial strains Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 and…

Antimykotische Wirkstoffe, Mitt. Chlor-(1-piperazinyl)-1,3,5-triazine
1988
Aus der Umsetzung von Cyanurchlorid (1) mit den Piperazinderivaten 2a–c bei –20 bis 10° gehen die Dichlor-(1-piperazinyl)-1,3,5-triazine 3a–c hervor. Bei der erhohten Reaktionstemperatur von 40° erfolgt aus 1 und den Piperazinderivaten 4a–b Bildung der 2-Chlor-4,6-bis(piperazinyl)-1,3,5-triazine 5a–b. Zu gemischt substituierten Chlor-1,3,5-triazinen 9 fuhrt die nacheinander erfolgende Umsetzung von 1 mit 2 verschiedenen cyclischen sekundaren Aminen (6 und 8). Die Strukturtypen 3, 5 und 9 zeigen in den 1H-NMR-Spektren zwei fur Piperazinringe charakteristische Signalgruppen im Bereich 2.4–4.0 ppm. Unter den neu entwickelten Verbindungen finden sich Vertreter mit sehr starker antimykotischer W…
