compound 3c, (IC50 value 6.25 μM) has shown better cytotoxicity effect against three cell lines. According to results of SAR study, it was found that 4H-pyrimido[2,1-b]benzothiazole derivatives (2e and 2f), pyrazoles (3a, 3b, 3c and 3d) benzylidenes (4d) exhibited better antioxidant activity than curcumin. A correlation of structure and activitiesrelationship of these compounds with respect to drug
Three curcumin derivatives having modification in active methylene group (1, 3) and keto groups (2) were successfully synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR and FT-IR spectroscopic techniques. The substitution on the active methylene site of curcumin increases the antioxidant behaviour but it is decreased on modifications in the carbonyl group. The observed results suggest that the structural modifications will help in tuning the antioxidant behaviour of curcumin. While comparing compound 1 which have strong donating group than compound 3, the former shows higher scavenging activity. This implies the electron donating strength also plays an important role in determining the antioxidant activity. The observed results will aid in developing new curcumin derivatives for better antioxidant properties.

A novel, one-pot, simple, efficient procedure for 4H-pyrimido[2,1-b]benzothiazole (4a-h), pyrazole (6a-d) and benzylidene (7a-d) derivatives of curcumin under solvent and solvent free conditions in microwave with good yield is have been synthesized. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antibacterial activity against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria viz. Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhi, Escherichia coli, Bacillus cereus and Providencia rettgeri and antifungal activity against fungi viz Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus fumigates, Aspergillus flavus. Detailed mechanistic study shows reaction proceeds through Knoevenagel type intermediate 3a which has been suggested as key intermediate for reaction (Fig. 3). (C) 2012 Elsevier Masson SAS.
