Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of hydroxy-isophthalaldehyde acid derivatives.
4-hydroxy-isophthalaldehyde acid (1), its alkyl esters (methyl, ethyl, propyl and butyl) and alkyl ethers (propyl, butyl, pentyl and esyl), as well as 6-hydroxy-isophthalaldehyde acid (2) ita alkyl esters (methyl and ethyl), 4-hydroxy-5-iodo-isophthalaldehyde acid (3) and its methyl ester were synthesized and characterized. Antimicrobial and antifungal activity was tested and the LD50 of the most active compound 4 was determined

Antidiarrhoeal activity of new thiazolidinones related to loperamide.
A series of thiazolidinones related to loperamide was synthesized and evaluated for antidiarrhoeal activity in mice, using the castor oil test. Of five compounds tested, antidiarrhoeal activity was found only for 2-(p-nitrophenyl)-3-¿3-[(4-(p-chlorophenyl)-4-hydroxy)piperidino]ethyl¿- 1,3-thiazolidin-4-one. The compound was less active than loperamide (ED50 values = 48.7 (24.8-95.6) and 0.91 (0.24-3.40) mg kg-1 respectively), but was also less toxic (LD50 values = 745.9 (545.2-929.8) and 108.9 (85.5-138.7) mg kg-1, respectively). Its antidiarrhoeal activity was counteracted by naloxone. Our results support the hypothesis that this compound, like loperamide, is an opiate-receptor agonist
Binding site of loperamide: automated docking of loperamide in human mi - and delta -opioid receptors.
Synthesis of new pyrido[4,3-g and 3,4-g]quinoline-5,10-dione and dihydro thieno[[2,3-g and 3,2-g]quinoline-4,9-dione derivatives and perliminary evaluation of cytotoxic activity
New benzo[g]isoquinoline-5,10-diones and dihydrothieno [2,3-b]naphtho-4,9-dione derivatives
Novel antitumoral agents with quinonic structure were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic activities. This study examines the cytotoxic activities of several aryl benzo[g]isoquinoline-5,10-dione derivatives and a number of aminoacyl dihydrothieno[2,3-b]naphtho-4.9-dione (DTNQ) derivatives containing amino acids in position 3 of the ring system. Compound 6 showed remarkable cytotoxic activity at submicromolar concentration not only against several human leukaemia and solid tumour cell lines, but also toward sensitive and resistant human cell lines
A novel approach to the synthesis of diaza-bridged heterocycle derivatives
A novel synthetic route of diaza-bridged heterocycles based on natural 3,9-diazabicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene scaffold has been accomplished. The synthetic approach consists of a Pictet-Spengler condensation of the l-Dopa-OMe with an appropriate aldehyde, Fmoc-Aa-H, followed by intramolecular lactamization. This approach generated two configurationally distinct products (cis and trans-isomers), increasing the stereochemical diversity of these compounds
