In humans, animals, and agriculture, parasitic nematode infection is a very serious issue. Many drugs are being used to control nematode infections. Owing to toxicity and nematodes' resistance to the available drugs, special attention is required to synthesize new drugs that are environmentally friendly with high-level efficacy. In the present study, various substituted thiazine derivatives (1 to 15) were synthesized, and the structures were confirmed by infrared, proton (1H), and 13C NMR spectroscopies. The nematicidal potential of the synthesized derivatives was characterized using Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) as a model organism. Among all synthesized compounds, 13 (LD50 = 38.95 μg/mL) and 15 (LD50 = 38.21 μg/mL) were considered the most potent compounds. Most compounds showed excellent anti-egg-hatching activity. Fluorescence microscopy confirmed that compounds 4, 8, 9, 13, and 15 displayed a high apoptotic effect. The expressions of gst-4, hsp-4, hsp16.2, and gpdh-1 genes were high in affected (treated with thiazine derivatives) C. elegans in comparison with normal C. elegans. The present research revealed that modified compounds are highly effective as they showed the gene level changes in the selected nematode. Due to structural modification in thiazine analogues, the compounds showed various modes of action. The most effective thiazine derivatives could be excellent candidates for novel broad-scale nematicidal drugs.

Objective: Chalcones and their heterocyclic analogs represent an important class of small molecules having anticonvulsant activities. Therefore, in this study, the synthesis and anticonvulsant activity of some new chalcones and 1,3-thiazines were described. Methods: The reaction of 1-acetylnaphthalene with substituted aromatic aldehydes in the presence of aq.

The newly synthesized compounds were tested for anticonvulsant activity by pentylenetetrazole-induced seizures method using diazepam as standard. Results: Most of the compounds showed good anticonvulsant activity but is less than diazepam. 1,3-thiazines were more potent than chalcones and among them, compound P4 containing 4-fluorophenyl substituents on the thiazine moiety was more potent as it has prolonged the onset of convulsions by 155.2 seconds.

Some chalcones are known to be phototransformed in a solution from trans into cis isomers. 3-Hydroxy-3'-methylchalcone (3'Me-3-C) has been found to be isomerized from trans into cis by irradiation of daylight in the methanolic solution. The presence of a hydroxyl in the 2'- or 4-position in the trans-chalcone structure prevents phototransformation into cis isomers. The feasibility of phototransformation of chalcones was discussed using UV-spectral analysis. The phototransformed cis-3'Me-3-C showed more potent antitumorigenic activity than the original trans form. The generally recognized parallelism between antitumorigenic and antiinflammatory activities was not observed in trans and cis 3'-Me- and 4'-Me-3C, which are antitumorigenic but inactive in 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA)- and arachidonic acid (AA)-induced mouse ear edema. However, inhibitory activity against ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) was commonly observed in both naturally occurring and synthetic antitumorigenic chalcones.
