In the present study, measurements of experimental density (ρ), viscosity (η) and speed of sound (u) of binary liquid mixtures of 2-methyl-1-butanol with ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, diethylene glycol monomethyl ether and triethylene glycol monomethyl ether have been carried out within the temperature range of 298.15–308.15 K with an interval of 5 K. Using the experimental data, excess properties such as excess molar volume ( V m E ), excess molar isentropic compressibility ( K s , m E ), excess speed of sound ( u E ), deviation in viscosity (Δη) and excess Gibbs free energy of activation for viscous flow ( Δ G * E ) have been calculated to study the intermolecular interactions present in these liquid mixtures. By comparing the standard deviation values the correlation ability of various proposed viscosity models has also been tested. Further, to rationalize the excess volume data Prigogine–Flory–Patterson (PFP) theory has also been studied. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

• The thermophysical properties of binary mixtures of 2-methyl-1-butanol with alkoxy ethanols viz., 2-ethoxyethanol, 2-propoxyethanol and 2-butoxyethanol. • The values of V m E are negative for all binary mixtures representing the attractive interactions. • Theoretical analysis of V m E has also been done using the Prigogine–Flory–Patterson theory. • All the excess and deviation parameters have been correlated to the composition with the help of Redlich-Kister type polynomial. • Using viscosity data of binary liquid mixtures, various semi-empirical relations of viscosity were tested. Density (ρ), viscosity (η) and speed of sound (u) of pure components and binary mixtures of 2-methyl-1-butanol with alkoxyethanols viz., 2-ethoxyethanol, 2-propoxyethanol and 2-butoxyethanol have been measured over the entire range of composition at different temperatures T = (298.15, 303.15 and 308.15) K. Using the experimental data various thermophysical properties such as excess molar volume (V m E), excess molar isentropic compressibility (K s , m E), excess speed of sound (u E), deviation in viscosity (Δη) and excess Gibb's free energy of activation for viscous flow (Δ G ∗ E ) have been calculated. The excess or deviation properties used to define the molecular interactions between like and unlike components. Further, the values of excess and deviation properties have been fitted to the Redlich-Kister polynomial equation. The measured viscosities have been correlated with various semi-empirical relations such as Grunberg-Nissan, Tamura-Kurata, Hind et al., Katti-Chaudhri, McAllister (three body interaction) model, Heric-Brewer and McAllister (four body interaction) model. Apart from this, Prigogine–Flory–Patterson (PFP) theory is also used for the estimation of V m E values for studied binary mixtures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Fused heterocyclic systems containing a bridgehead nitrogen atom have emerged as imperative pharmacophores in the design and development of new drugs. Among these heterocyclic moieties, the imidazothiazole scaffold has long been used in medicinal chemistry for the treatment of various diseases. In this study, we have established a simplistic and environmentally safe regioselective protocol for the synthesis of 5,6-dihydroimidazo[2,1- b ]thiazole derivatives from easily available reactants. The reaction proceeds through in situ formation of the α-bromodiketones ensuing trap with imidazolidine-2-thione to provide these versatile bicyclic heterocycles in excellent yields. The synthesized compounds were screened through the molecular docking approach for the most stable complex formation with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and calf thymus deoxyribonucleic acid (ctDNA). The selected compound was further studied using ex vivo binding studies, which revealed moderate interactions with BSA and ctDNA. The binding studies were performed using biophysical approaches including UV-visible spectroscopy, steady-state fluorescence, circular dichroism (CD), and viscosity parameters.
