The present work deals with the synthesis of a series of 6-substituted-4-hydroxy-1-(2-substitued alicyclicaminoacetyl)-3-nitroquinolin-2(1H)-one {IVa-d (1-3)} derivatives and evaluation of their in vitro anticancer activity. Docking study was carried out using EGFR-tyrosine kinase binding site (P...
A series of dihydropyrimidone derivatives was synthesized by an efficient, simple and solvent less green method by using Beginelli reaction. Various aromatic aldehydes, urea and ethyl acetoacetate were refluxed for a few hours and the reaction monitored by periodic TLC (hexane: ethyl acetate 6:4 ...
The present study was embarked upon for the optimization of conditions aimed at ultrasonic assisted extraction (UAE) of antioxidant chemicals from Moringa oleifera leaves by applying response surface methodology (RSM) based on face centered central composite design (CCD). Evaluation was done at t...
The objective of the study was to prepare antifungal gel using leaves of Amaranthus viridis for the treatment of cutaneous candidiasis. The leaves were studied for pharmacognostic evaluation. The powder of leaves was tested for phytoconstituents. The plant extract was evaluated for the minimum in...
Hydrazine hydrate has genotoxic effect in nature and so it should be controlled down as Potential Genotoxic Impurity (PGI). Being polar molecule, hydrazine hydrate (N2H4.H2O) has no chromophores present in structure which can follow Lambert beer law, thus it is difficult to analyze. The present w...
