The linkage between metal nodes and organic linkers has led to the development of new porous crystalline materials called metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). These have found significant potential applications in different areas such as gas storage and separation, chemical sensing, heterogeneous catalysis, biomedicine, proton conductivity, and others. Overall, MOFs are outstanding candidates for next-generation energy storage devices, and they have recently attracted the greater devotion of the scientific community worldwide. MOFs can be used to enhance the ability of a device to store energy due to their unique morphology, controllable structures, high surface area, and permanent porosity. MOFs are widely used in super capacitors (SCs), metal (Li, Na, and K) ion batteries, and lithium–sulfur batteries (LSBs) and act as a promising candidate to store energy in an environmentally friendly way. MOFs are also used as efficient materials with better recyclability, efficiency, and capacity retention. In this review, first we summarize the material design, chemical compositions, and physical structure of MOFs and afterward, we highlight the most recent development and understanding in this area, mainly focusing on various practical applications of MOFs in energy storage devices.

Abstract: Determination of the exact structure of any compound is extremely critical task. Primarily organic chemistry relies on NMR, IR & Mass spectrometric data. Authors have experienced that introduction of structure elucidation in undergraduate courses and postgraduate courses is helpful for students later in their research career. Based on our experience, this article discusses double bond equivalents, the rule of 13 and the nitrogen rule. We have compared the result of these three rules with real spectroscopic data. This article demonstrates the applicability of double bond equivalents, the rule of 13 and the nitrogen rule in solving compound structures using spectroscopic data. Based on availability of molecular weight or molecular formula, we can predict the possible structure of any organic compound using these concepts. In addition, if we have the spectroscopic data like NMR, IR, Mass spectrometry data and UV spectrophotometry data, we can easily confirm the exact structure. This article will be critical for the all the organic chemist for structure elucidation of organic molecules; however, several spectroscopic data is still required for analyzing the exact structure of any molecule.

Abstract: Quinoline and its derivatives are part of several natural products. Many of them are active pharmacophores and show enormous biological activities. Owing to their usefulness in drug discovery, we have discussed the plethora of quinoline derivatives showing particularly antibacterial and antifungal activities in this article. Depending upon substitution on the quinoline core, change of functionalities at different positions and change in chain length; unique biological properties are associated with such derivatives of quinolines and in this article, we have delineated the antibacterial and antifungal activities of such activities in detail. In most of the cases, it has been found that substitution at the 5-position leads to enhanced bioactivities. In most cases, 5-halo/5-amino/5-aryl and heteroaryl/5-carbonyl/5-amido show promising antibacterial and antifungal activities. Furthermore, the synthetic aspects of several quinoline derivatives showing antibacterial and antifungal activities are also discussed in this article.

Using swollen liquid crystals (SLCs) as a soft template, different polyindole nanostructures having different morphology have been synthesized successfully at different temperatures. The SLCs containing indole ring was formed by a quaternary system containing cetyltrimethyl-ammonium bromide (CTAB) or sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as a surfactant, brine, indole:cyclohexane mixture as oil phase and 1-pentanol as co-surfactant. The indole containing mesophases were polymerized using ammonium persulfate as an oxidant and further nanocomposites were extracted from the mesophases. Finally, the extracted and processed samples were characterized using different spectroscopic techniques. The electrochemical properties of polyindole nanostructures were also investigated using cyclic voltammetry.

This study presented the bioactive lead(II) compounds of oxazine and thiazine Schiff-bases using NMR (1H, 13C), FT-infrared spectroscopy, UV-visible, molar conductance, elemental analysis and molecular weight. The molecular parameters e.g. bond length, bond angle, HOMO/LUMO energy gap and softness/hardness was calculated by DFT-B3LYP/Lanl2dz basis set. According to the spectral data, the Schiff-base coordinated to the lead atom in bidentate mode. A theoretical DFT computational investigation was conducted to supplement the experimental data. The antibacterial activity of lead complexes against E. coli (–) and S. aureus (+) bacteria was determined by disc-diffusion method. Lead complexes of thiazine derivatives are more active than oxazine derivatives. In order to better understand the molecular interaction and binding mode of the drugs, a molecular docking study has been carried out on the protein 3q8u (NDK) from S. aureus. A docking investigation with the NDK protein (S. aureus) revealed that compound 1h has the highest binding affinity (-8.18 Kcal/mol) among the eight ligands (1a-h).
