Objective:
The objective of this study is to synthesize and comprehensively characterize a novel iodine-containing coordination compound, di-aminopropionic acid hydrogen tri-iodide. This involves determining its structural, physicochemical, and thermal properties, as well as evaluating its antimicrobial activity against a range of bacterial strains, including multidrug-resistant pathogens. The aim is to explore the potential of this compound as a candidate for developing new antibacterial agents to address the challenge of antibiotic resistance.
Results:
An original iodine-containing semiorganic coordination compound was synthesized and characterized. The physicochemical properties were studied via diffraction, FTIR spectroscopy and thermogravimetric/differential scanning calorimetry (TG/DSC). In vitro antimicrobial activity evaluation was performed using two-fold serial dilution method. The obtained results demonstrated efficiency against both gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and gram-negative (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii) bacteria including MDR strains that cause infectious disease. The results of the antibacterial evaluation revealed that the new iodine coordination compound - di-aminopropionic acid hydrogen tri-iodide possesses high bactericidal properties and exhibits better antimicrobial activity against both susceptible and multidrug-resistant strains than does Lugol solution and ampicillin sodium, which are used as reference drugs.

02:34Structural Isomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula. Structural isomerism of coordination compounds can be divided into two subcategories, the linkage isomers and coordination-sphere isomers.
Linkage isomers occur when the coordination compound contains a ligand that can bind to the transition metal center through two different atoms. For example, the CN− ligand can bind through the carbon atom or through the nitrogen atom. Similarly,...

01:29Preparation of Amides
The DCC-promoted synthesis of amides begins with the protonation of DCC by carboxylic acid. The protonation makes it a better acceptor. Next, the addition of carboxylate to the protonated carbodiimide gives a reactive acylating agent.
Subsequently, the amine acts as a nucleophile that attacks the acylating agent to form a tetrahedral intermediate. In the...

The nitrous acid is unstable. Hence, it is formed in situ from a solution of sodium nitrite and cold aqueous acids such as hydrochloric or sulfuric acid. In an acidic solution, the –OH group of nitrous acid undergoes protonation to give oxonium ion, followed by...
