A zeolite supported Bronsted-acid catalyst system has been developed for the synthesis of novel N-substituted spiro[indole-pyridothiazine] analogs under ultrasonication in shorter reaction times with higher yields. The antiproliferative effects of the synthesized compounds were also tested against a wide range of tumor cell lines.

Potential of root system of plants from wide range of families to effectively reduce membrane impermeable ferricyanide to ferrocyanide and blue coloured 2,6-dichlorophenol indophenol (DCPIP) to colourless DCPIPH2 both under non-sterile and sterile conditions, revealed prevalence of immense reducing strength at root surface. As generation of silver nanoparticles (NPs) from Ag+ involves reduction, present investigations were carried to evaluate if reducing strength prevailing at surface of root system can be exploited for reduction of Ag+ and exogenous generation of silver-NPs. Root system of intact plants of 16 species from 11 diverse families of angiosperms turned clear colorless AgNO3 solutions, turbid brown. Absorption spectra of these turbid brown solutions showed silver-NPs specific surface plasmon resonance peak. Transmission electron microscope coupled with energy dispersive X-ray confirmed the presence of distinct NPs in the range of 5–50 nm containing Ag. Selected area electron diffraction and powder X-ray diffraction patterns of the silver NPs showed Bragg reflections, characteristic of crystalline face-centered cubic structure of Ag0 and cubic structure of Ag2O. Root system of intact plants raised under sterile conditions also generated Ag0/Ag2O-NPs under strict sterile conditions in a manner similar to that recorded under non-sterile conditions. This revealed the inbuilt potential of root system to generate Ag0/Ag2O-NPs independent of any microorganism. Roots of intact plants reduced triphenyltetrazolium to triphenylformazon and impermeable ferricyanide to ferrocyanide, suggesting involvement of plasma membrane bound dehydrogenases in reduction of Ag+ and formation of Ag0/Ag2O-NPs. Root enzyme extract reduced triphenyltetrazolium to triphenylformazon and Ag+ to Ag0 in presence of NADH, clearly establishing potential of dehydrogenases to reduce Ag+ to Ag0, which generate Ag0/Ag2O-NPs. Findings presented in this manuscript put forth a novel, simple, economically viable and green protocol for synthesis of silver-NPs under ambient conditions in aqueous phase, using root system of intact plants.

Experiments involving single step hydrothermal reactions of the divalent metal (Zn2 + , Cd2 + , Pb2 + , Cu2 + , Ni2 + and Mn2 + ) salts with ilmenite NaSbO3 yielded pure divalent antimonates in the case of CdSb2O6 crystallizing in the PbSb2O6 type structure and ZnSb2O6 crystallizing in the trirutile structure type. In the case of Pb2 + , Cu2 + , Ni2 + and Mn2 + divalent cations, phase pure product could not be obtained. The obtained powders were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray analysis and UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. The oxide powders obtained possessed lower crystallite size as compared to their solid-state synthesized counterparts. This was evident from the broadening of the powder X-ray diffraction peaks. The antimonates were photocatalytically active for the decomposition of methylene blue (MB) dye under UV light irradiation.

Sixteen plant species from 11 distinct families were evaluated for their potential to exogenously fabricate Au-nanoparticles (NPs) at the root surface. The root system of intact plants of all species turned clear pale yellow colloidal salt solutions of Au purple/golden. Transmission electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy revealed the presence of Au-NPs in the range of 5–100 nm in these colloidal solutions. PXRD showed the crystalline nature of Au-NPs. Reduction of 2,6-dichlorophenol-indophenol (DCPIP) by the root system of intact plants confirmed that the root surface possesses the strong reducing strength necessary for the reduction of Au3+ to Au0 and to generate Au-NPs. Our findings unequivocally demonstrated for the first time that roots of intact plants of certain species can be exploited for the bulk synthesis of Au-NPs exogenously under ambient conditions in an aqueous phase. These findings highlight a novel, simple, economically feasible and green/eco-friendly scheme for the exogenous production of Au-NPs in an aqueous phase under ambient conditions.
