Synthesis, evaluation and molecular docking studies for the anti-inflammatory activity of novel 8-substituted-7-benzoyloxy-4-methyl-6-nitrocoumarin derivatives
Starting from the 8-acetyl-4-methyl-6-nitro-2-oxo-2H-chromen-7-yl benzoate I, 8-(3-arylacryloyl)-4-methyl-6-nitro-2-oxo-2H-chromen-7-yl benzoates (chalcones) II were synthesized and further used for the synthesis of two new series of 8-(2-imino/oxo/thioxo pyrimidin-4-yl)-4-methyl-6-nitro-2-oxo-2H-chromen-7-yl benzoates III-V and 8-(pyrazol-3-yl)-4-methyl-6-nitro-2-oxo-2H-chromen-7-yl benzoates VI and VII. All of the...

Sensitive liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry determination of isoniazid: Elimination of matrix effects
Small size and high polar basic compounds have always been challenging with heavy matrix effect due to their difficult complete separation from polar endogenous compounds contained in most biological matrix. In this study, a relevant design including column choice, mobile phase constituents, and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) parameters optimization have been developed to remove...

Neuropharmacological evaluation of selected Jordanian traditional herbal medicines
Numerous medicinal plants have been described in traditional medicine for treatment of dementias, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In this study, some of these plants were evaluated in three different types of pharmacological bioassays related to AD pathology to explore the possible mechanisms underpinning their traditional use. Six selected plants were extracted with ethanol and screened in vitro for...
