Nanomaterials have attracted a great deal of attention from the scientific community due to their unique properties and applications. The small size metal oxides have opened up the door for intensive research to utilize their properties for biomedical applications. Silver nanoparticle (AgNPs) and metal oxide nanomaterials like MgO, ZnO, NiO and its silver doped nanocomposites (Ag-MgO, Ag-ZnO, Ag-NiO) have been prepared using solid state combustion method using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as a fuel. The structure of as prepared oxides and its silver doped nanocomposites were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD) tool and morphology by Scanning Electron Micrograph (SEM) tool as well as Transmission electron micrograph tool respectively. Presence of the metals in the oxides and its Ag composite was confirmed by the EDX pattern. Bonding nature in the composite is well studied by the Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) tool. Antibacterial activity studies of the nanocomposites are carried out against various bacteria.

Oxygen-containing heterocycles are largely distributed in natural and synthetic compounds. Coumarins are among the most famous heterocycles which possess one oxygen atom in their rings. Coumarins are classified as multifunctional scaffold and are used as anti-oxidant reagents, anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, anti-fungal, anti-HIV active, analgesic, anti-histaminic, insecticides, dyes, herbicides, sensitizers, perfumes, cosmetics and food additives. Due to their diverse applications in industrial and pharmaceutical fields, many chemists have given significant interest to these compounds. Herein, the review highlights various methods for the synthesis and interactions of coumarin moiety as one of the most efficient categories of heterocycles.

A series of some new pyrazole-substituted 7H-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazines was synthesized in this study. The structures of target substances were confirmed by using 1H and 13С NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and elemental analysis. The synthesized compounds have been evaluated for antimicrobial activity against five bacterial strains (Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus) and two fungal strains (Candida albicans and Cryptococcus neoformans). The antimicrobial screening studies of synthesized substances established that 2 of 12 compounds show pronounced antibacterial activity against the strain Staphylococcus aureus.

Different methods for the synthesis of pyridine derivatives as well as the chemical reactivity profiles and structures of these substances are reviewed. The utility of these compounds as precursors is emphasized in the synthesis of many heterocycles that are pharmacologically active organic compounds and agrochemicals.

Five imidazo[1,2-c]pyrimidine and pyrimido[1,6-a]pyrimidine derivatives were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their antiproliferative activity and cytotoxicity. Primary bioassays in vitro showed that two of five synthesized compounds, 6-benzyl-8-(methylsulfonyl)-2,6-dihydroimidazo[1,2-c]pyrimidin-5(3H)-one, and 9-(methylsulfonyl)-7-propyl-2,3,4,7-tetrahydro-6H-pyrimido[1,6-a]pyrimidin-6-one possessed potent antiviral activity against BKV (EC50: 0.66 μM and 0.96, respectively). The selectivity index of these compounds is similar to that of cidofovir. Although antiviral activity was evident in secondary assays, significant virus inhibition occurred at or near the cytotoxic concentration (SI90=1). Here we show that substituted pyrimidine derivatives are a promising structure class of chemical compounds for the development of antiviral drugs against BKV infections. Hence these compounds may be taken as lead compounds for further development of novel antimicrobial and anticancer agents.
