Synthesis of new series of quinoxaline based MAO-inhibitors and docking studies

A series of 2-benzyl-3-(2-arylidenehydrazinyl)quinoxalines 3, 4-benzyl-1-aryl-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalines 4 and phenyl(1-aryl-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalin-4-yl)methanones 5 analogues were synthesized and investigated for their monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitory property. The inhibition profile was found to be competitive for compounds 3k, 3m, 5f and 5n with MAO-A selectivity. Observation of the docked positions of these compounds revealed interactions with many residues previously reported to have an effect on the inhibition of the enzyme. The structural features of the new compounds have been determined from the microanalytical, IR, 1H, 13C NMR spectral studies and X-ray crystalography

A regio- and stereo-controlled approach to triazoloquinoxalinyl C-nucleosides

The synthesis of a new series of acyclic triazoloquinoxalinyl C-nucleosides and their transformation to their cyclic analogs are described following protection, activation, and deprotection with subsequent intramolecular nucleophilic substitution protocol. The antibacterial potency of the new compounds was determined using an inhibition zone diameter test. The results show that 3a and 2b exhibit good activity against Escherichia coli and Candida albicans. On the other hand, the cyclic mesylated C-nucleoside 13 showed activity against the Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus) and antifungal activity against C. albicans

Comparative analysis of parameters of pulsed copper vapour laser and known types of technological lasers

In the present paper we present the results of a comparative analysis of pulsed copper vapour lasers with visible emission wavelengths of 510.6 and 578.2 nm and pulse duration of 10-30 ns and known types of technological lasers as well as the prospects for using the copper vapor laser for microprocessing of material
