The next most active set of molecules were species with large bulky groups. 2i and 2j demonstrated reduced activity but were slightly better than the non-cyclic aliphatic molecules 2a, 2b and 2f. 2d, the most sterically hindered example gave the best result from this set (see Table 1). In the case of the antifungal studies there was no equivalent activity. The compounds were all essentially clinically inert when compared to our control fluconazole. A series of novel N-alkyl-2-(3,5-dimethyl-1,1-dioxido-2H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-yl) benzamide derivatives were designed and synthesized, and their structures

were characterized by 1H NMR, high-resolution mass spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The bacterial and fungicidal activities of the new GDC-0449 mw compounds were evaluated. The results of preliminary bioassays indicate that a number of these molecules exhibit antibacterial activities against Gram-positive Perifosine bacteria that are comparable to commercially available drugs. The modification of the heterocyclic ring of the parent compound offers a promising prospect and more active analogues are expected to be found. All authors have none to declare. “
“Perilla (Perilla frutescens L.), commonly known as “Bhanjira” in India, belonging to Lamiaceae family, is an underutilized crop of Indian Himalayas with potential utility in agriculture. It is cultivated as

a traditional crop in Asia for its medicinal and nutritional value due to the bio-actives, fatty acid constituents and essential oil. In India, the plant is grown in Himalayas but there is no organized cultivation of the herb. 1 In Uttarakhand, villagers

generally used seeds and leaves of the plants for the preparation of ‘food chutney’ and flavoring curry materials. 2 Literature survey has shown different chemotypes in the essential oil of P. frutescens and other Perilla species such as perilla ketone, 3 and 4 perilla ketone-isoegomaketone, 5 perilla ketone-egomaketone, 6 perilladehyde, 6 and 7 limonene-piperitone, 8 β-caryophyllene, 9 and 10 these caryophyllene oxide 4 and rosefuran. 11 Perilla also showed high antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. 12, 13, 14 and 15 Keeping in view, that Perilla crop can play an important role in national economy both as raw material, essential oil and fatty oil for pharmaceutical industry and also as a foreign exchange earner through export, we started to study on quality and crop improvement of this plant. 3 and 16 Therefore, this investigation aims to determine the compositional variability in the essential oils of plant organs (whole plant, leaves, spikes and husk) at 3 different sowing times and also to ensure the suitability of this crop in Doon valley climatic conditions of Uttarakhand for commercial cultivation.
