- ItemAssessment Of Heavy Metal Pollution Of Waste Dump Sites In Kwara State Using Carica Papaya, Musa Spp And Cocorhrous Olitorous As Indicators(International Organization of Scientific Research (IOSR), 2013-09) Bale, Adebayo Tajudeen; Ogundele, Damilola Temitope; Bodunde, Victoria TosinPlant fruits and vegetables grown on mixed waste dumpsites were used as bio indicators of heavy metal pollution of three waste dumpsites in Ilorin Kwara State Nigeria. The samples were digested using Wet-oxidation method and heavy metals in the digest were analyzed by Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer Technique. Carica Papaya, Musa Spp and Cocorhrous Olitorous samples were collected from contaminated and uncontaminated sites. Copper concentrations of carica- papaya, Musa spp, and cocorhrous olitorous from the contaminated sites were found between 0.15-0.23 mg/kg in Abayawo, 0.13 mg/kg in Okolowo, and 0.10 mg/kg in Itanmo. Zinc was found between 21.25-42.75mg/kg in Abayawo, 20.00 mg/kg in Okolowo, and 11.00 mg/kg in Itanmo. Pb and Cd were found below the detection limit of the instrument. Heavy metals in the uncontaminated site samples were found between 0.10-0.23 mg/kg Copper, 0.75-31.75 mg/kg Zinc. Cadmium and lead were found comparatively below detention limits in all the samples. Mean concentrations of metals were higher in Abayawo dumpsite than other dumpsites. The mean concentration of Cu 0.56 mg/kg and Zn 30.75mg/kg are well above the mean concentration of metals from the control site (Oloje) 0.15 mg/kg and 24.58 mg/kg Copper and Zinc respectively. Base on this study, the three waste dumpsites are polluted with heavy metals (Copper, Zinc), which can pose great health risk and hazards on food chain.
- ItemChalcones and Bis-Chalcones Analogs as DPPH and ABTS Radical Scavengers(Bentham Science Publishers, 2021) Bale, Adebayo Tajudeen; Salar, Uzma; Khan, Khalid Mohammed; Chigurupati, Sridevi; Fasina, Tolulope; Ali, Farman; Ali, Muhammad; Nanda, Sekhar Sitanshu; Taha Muhammad; Perveen, ShahnazA number of synthetic scaffolds, along with natural products, have been identified as potent antioxidants. The present study deals with the evaluation of varyingly substituted, medicinally distinct class of compounds “chalcones and bis-chalcones” for their antioxidant potential.
- ItemChalcones and bis-chalcones: As potential α-amylase inhibitors; synthesis, in vitro screening, and molecular modelling studies(Academic Press Inc., 2018-05-07) Bale, Adebayo Tajudeen; Khan, Khalid Mohammed; Salar, Uzma; Chigurupati, Sridevi; Fasina, Tolulope; Ali, Farman; Kanwal; Abdul Wadood; Taha, Muhammad; Nanda, Sekhar Sitanshu; Ghufran Mehreen; Perveen, ShahnazDespite of a diverse range of biological activities associated with chalcones and bis-chalcones, they are still neglected by the medicinal chemist for their possible α-amylase inhibitory activity. So, the current study is based on the evaluation of this class for the identification of new leads as α-amylase inhibitors. For that purpose, a library of substituted chalcones 1–13 and bis-chalcones 14–18 were synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic techniques EI-MS and 1H NMR. CHN analysis was carried out and found in agreement with the calculated values. All compounds were evaluated for in vitro α-amylase inhibitory activity and demonstrated good activities in the range of IC50 = 1.25 ± 1.05–2.40 ± 0.09 µM as compared to the standard acarbose (IC50 = 1.04 ± 0.3 µM). Limited structure–activity relationship (SAR) was established by considering the effect of different groups attached to aryl rings on varying inhibitory activity. SMe group in chalcones and OMe group in bis-chalcones were found more influential on the activity than other groups. However, in order to predict the involvement of different groups in the binding interactions with the active site of α-amylase enzyme, in silico studies were also conducted.

The antioxidant evaluation results revealed that the synthesized metal complexes are promising antioxidant agents.
- ItemEffect of Organic Matter Removalon Sorption Studies of Phosphate by Selected Soils in Northern Part of Kwara State, Nigeria(Science domain international, 2014-01-15) Bale, Adebayo Tajudeen; Bodunde, Victoria Tosin; Ogundele, Damilola TolulopeThe effect of organic matter removal and adsorbate solution composition on phosphate sorption by selected soil in Moro Local Government of Kwara State (Malete and Elemere) was studied. The organic matter was removed by treating the soil with hydrogen peroxide. This is referred to as the treated sample while the untreated samples were those to which hydrogen peroxide was not added. The adsorbate solution used was KH2PO4+KCl. The sorption study for maximum adsorption capacity was carried out with 1g of soil in 20ml phosphate solution at different concentration. The maximum adsorption capacities of treated and untreated Malete soil were observed to be 0.29mg/g and 0.23mg/g respectively while those of treated and untreated Elemere soil were observed to be 0.24mg/g and 0.14mg/g respectively. The phosphate sorption data were fitted to both Langmuir adsorption isotherm, the R2 values for the samples (Malete=0.870, Elemere=0.792) and Freundlich (Malete =0.013, Elemere=0.043). The adsorption data of Malete and Elemere soils were observed to fit Langmuir II adsorption isotherm.

- ItemHeteroleptic Transition Metal Complexes of Eflornithine Hydrochloride Monohydrate: Synthesis, Characterization, in silico and in vitro Biological Studies(Turkish Chemical Society, 2022-09-20) Bale, Adebayo Tajudeen; Osunniran, Wahab Adesina; Ayipo, Yusuf Oloruntoyin; Rajee, Abdullahi Ola; Bamigboye, Mercy Oluwaseyi; Obaleye, Joshua AyoolaIncessant development of resistance to drugs by microorganisms remains a major setback associated with the currently available antibiotics, thereby making imperative a continuous search for alternative candidates with improved efficacy. Previous studies have shown enhanced antimicrobial activity of some bioactive molecules upon coordination with metal ions. Thus, in this study, Cu(II), Co(II), and Ni(II) complexes of eflornithine hydrochloride monohydrate (EHM) were synthesized and probed for bactericidal activity via in vitro and in silico. The characterization results such as CHN analysis, FTIR, UV-visible magnetic susceptibility and Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry (ESI-MS) reveal that EHM coordinates as a bidentate ligand to each central metal ion in the molar ratio 1:2 through O and N in the COO- and NH2 group respectively, and also suggest octahedral geometry in each complex. The physicochemical and pharmacokinetics parameters predicted in silico support the bio-applicability and safety of the complexes. From the in vitro antibacterial study, the complexes demonstrate improved activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa with an average minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 0.01 mg/L similar to ciprofloxacin, compared to EHM whose MIC >1.00 mg/L. Although, not all the complexes satisfy Lipinski’s drugability rule of 5 due to their molecular weight, however, coordination with metal ions improves the biological activities of EHM and the complexes demonstrate potential for further transformation into antibiotic therapeutics.
- ItemIdentifcation of 1,2,4-triazoles as new thymidine phosphorylase inhibitors: Future anti-tumor drugs(Elsevier, 2019-01-04) Bale, Adebayo Tajudeen; Shahzad, Anjum Sohail; Yar, Muhammad; Khan, Ali Zulfiqar; Shahzadi, Lubna; Naqvi, Raza Ali Syed; Mahmood, Adeem; SamiUllah; Shaikh, Jabbar Ahson; Sherazi, Ali Tauqir; Kukulowicz, Jedrzej; Badja MarekThymidine phosphorylase (TP) is over expressed in several solid tumors and its inhibition can offer unique target suitable for drug discovery in cancer. A series of 1,2,4-triazoles 3a–3l has been synthesized in good yields and subsequently inhibitory potential of synthesized triazoles 3a–3l against thymidine phosphorylase enzyme was evaluated. Out of these twelve analogs fve analogues 3b, 3c, 3f, 3l and 3l exhibited a good inhibitory potential against thymidine phosphorylase. Inhibitory potential in term of IC50 values were found in the range of 61.98 ± 0.43 to 273.43 ± 0.96 μM and 7-Deazaxanthine was taken as a standard inhibitor with IC50 = 38.68 ± 4.42 μM. Encouraged by these results, more analogues 1,2,4-triazole-3-mercaptocarboxylic acids 4a–4g were synthesized and their inhibitory potential against thymidine phosphorylase was evaluated. In this series, six analogues 4b–4g exhibited a good inhibitory potential in the range of 43.86 ± 1.11–163.43 ± 2.03 μM. Angiogenic response of 1,2,4-triazole acid 4d was estimated using the chick chorionic allantoic membrane (CAM) assay. In the light of these findings, structure activity relationship and molecular docking studies of selected triazoles to determine the key binding interactions was discussed. Docking studies demonstrate that synthesized analogues interacted with active site residues of thymidine phosphorylase enzyme through π-π stacking, thiolate and hydrogen bonding interactions.

- ItemSorption Study of Cd(II) from Aqueous Solution Using Activated Carbon Prepared from Vitellaria paradoxa Shell(2015) Bale, Adebayo Tajudeen; Jimoh, Akeem Adebayo; Adebayo, G.B; Otun, K.O; Ajiboye, Abdulfatai Temitope; Jamiu, W.; Alao, F.OActivated carbon prepared from vitellaria paradoxa (shea nut) shell using ortho-phosphoric acid has been used for the removal of Cd(II) ion from aqueous solution. The adsorbent sample was characterized by some physicochemical and spectroscopic parameters such as pH, point of zero charge (PZC), moisture content, iodine number, loss on ignition, bulk density, XRF, SEM and TEM. The pH and the PZC of the sample were found to be 4.0 and 5.8 respectively. The adsorbent sample has moisture content of 5.22 ± 0.1%, iodine number of 456.50 ± 59%, loss on ignition 10.71 ± 0.18% bulk density of 0.84 ± 0.09%. The XRF analysis indicated that Ca, Si and Fe were major constituents in the adsorbent sample. The SEM and TEM analysis results indicated good adsorptive characteristics of the adsorbent. Result from the FTIR analysis indicate presence of some important components such as C=O, O-H, C-O N-H, and P-H which responsible for high adsorptive capacity of the adsorbent. The equilibrium adsorption of Cd(II) ion data was well fitted with Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms with correlation coefficient of 0.996 and 0.998 respectively. The kinetic study revealed that pseudo-second order kinetic was better fitted compared to pseudo-first order kinetic. Thermodynamic experiment indicated that the adsorption process was exothermic with ∆H equals +27.84 KJ/mol and ∆S equals -0.993 KJ/molK.

- ItemSynthesis, Characterization and α-Amylase Inhibition Study of Substituted Schiff Base and Its Metal Complexes(2023-12-31) Bale, Adebayo Tajudeen; Osunniran, Wahab Adesina; Ajiboye, Abdulfatai TemitopeMechanochemical synthesis is considered as a green and sustainable approach to chemical reactions since it requires little or no solvent, making the process more environmentally friendly by reducing waste and minimizing solvent related hazards. In this study, substituted Schiff base was synthesized from 2-aminophenol and 2- hydroxy-1-naphthaldeyde via mechanochemical synthesis method. The metal complexes were synthesized by reacting the ligand with metal(II) chlorides in ratio 2:1. The synthesized compounds were characterized by colour, melting point, molar conductivity, FT-IR, and UV-Vis spectroscopy. The ligand and its metal complexes were screened for α-amylase inhibitory activity. FT-IR results showed absorption bands in between the ranges 1628-1632 cm-1 and 1585-1597 cm-1 indicating the formation of azomethine C=N and aromatic C=C respectively. The metal complexes showed M-O absorption bands in between the range 519-579 cm-1 and M-N band in between the range 461-484 cm-1. The synthesized compounds displayed significant inhibitory activities (IC50: 2.00-8.43 mg/mL) against α-amylase comparable to the reference compound, acarbose (IC50: 9.12 mg/mL). These compounds can serve as viable templates in the formulation of new active antidiabetic drugs.
- ItemSynthesis, FT-IR Spectroscopic Studies and in vitro FRAP Assay of some Chalcone Derivatives and their Metal Complexes(ACADEMIC STAFF UNION OF UNIVERSITIES, 2022) Bale, Adebayo Tajudeen; Daramola, Kehinde Dele; Osunniran, Wahab AdesinaA variety of substituted chalcones, namely, 3”-aminochalcone, 2”,4”-dichlorochalcone, 2”-methoxychalcone, 4”-methoxychalcone and 2”-hydroxychalcone have been synthesized by Claisen-Schmidt condensation and characterised by melting point and FT-IR spectroscopic technique. The tin(II), cadmium(II) and copper(II)) complexes of the 2”-hydroxychalcone (4E2HC) with the formula [M(L)2] were subsequently prepared. The 2”-hydroxychalcone and its metal complexes were evaluated for in vitro radical scavenging activity by carrying out ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay. In almost all cases, the metal complexes exhibited higher activities than the ligand (chalcone). Notable activity (11.63 µM) was observed for the cadmium complex of the 4-ethoxy-2”-hydroxychalcone at 10 µg/mL. Limited structure–activity relationship (SAR) was established by considering the effect of different groups attached to the aryl rings and the metal centers on varying antioxidant activity. The enhanced activity may be due to the presence of electron-rich metals and electron-releasing ethoxy (-OC2H5) and hydroxy (–OH) groups. The confirmed bioactive compounds from this study can be used as effective template in medicinal chemistry for drug discovery.
- ItemSynthetic approaches toward the reserpine(Taylor and Francis Ltd, 2018-03-26) Bale, Adebayo Tajudeen; Zulfiqar, Ali Khan; Shahzad, Sohail Anjum; Anjum, Arooj; Naqvi, Raza Ali SyedReserpine is an indole alkaloid, antipsychotic, and antihypertensive drug that has been used for the control of high blood pressure and for the relief of psychotic symptoms. It was first isolated in 1952 from the dried root of Rauwolfia serpentina whose molecular structure was established in 1953 and natural configuration was published in 1955. The first total synthesis of reserpine was reported by Woodward in 1958. This review article updates current multistep synthetic approaches toward the reserpine natural product and its analogues.
- ItemThe Studies of Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Potentials of the Leaf Extract of Bauhinia monandra Plant(Longdom Publishing SL, 2015) Bale, Adebayo Tajudeen; Ajiboye, Abdulfatai Temitope; Musa, MD; Otun, KO; Jimoh, Akeem Adebayo; Lawal, SO; Arowona, MTIn the present study, the dried leaf (144g) of B. monandra plant was extracted with 95% ethanol. The crude extract was partitioned into ethyl acetate and n-hexane layers to afford fractions with golden brown and greenish yellow colours respectively. The fractions were concentrated and coded EFBM and HFBM. The preliminary phytochemical screening conducted on the crude extract and ethyl acetate fraction (EFBM) revealed the presence of flavonoids, tannins, steroids, terpenoids, saponin, cardiac glycoside and phenols. The antioxidant activity of EFBM and HFBM was evaluated using DPPH radical scavenging assay with ascorbic acid as a reference standard. However, the result of analysis revealed that EFBM exhibited high antioxidant (IC50 µg/mL=0.010) activity than HFBM (IC50 µg/m = 5.564) and reference standard ascorbic acid (IC50 µg/mL=30). The antibacterial activity of EFBM and HFBM against three gram negative bacterial strains (Eschericha coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsillia oxytoca) was also evaluated and it was found that EFBM exhibited highest antibacterial potential. In contrast to this, HFBM showed negligible or zero activity against all the bacteria strains. The results of the GC-MS analyses of EFBM and HFBM showed the presence of nine different phytochemicals. In EFBM, oleic acid which is classified as monounsaturated omega-9-fatty acid with percentage concentration, (40.76%) was the major compound as identified by the GC-MS and 4-hydroxy-5-methyl-3-propyl-2-hexanone with percentage concentration, (42.70%) was identified as the major compound in HFBM. The results of this studies demonstrated that folk medicine can be as effective as modern medicine to combat pathogenic microorganisms. The millenarian use of the leaf of this plant in folk medicine suggests that it represents an economic and safe alternative to treat infectious diseases.
- ItemTOXICOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT OF SYNTHESIZED AND CHARACTERIZED TRANSITION METAL(II) COMPLEXES OF EFLORNITHINE HYDROCHLORIDE HYDRATE ON ALBINO RATS(Chemical Society of Ethiopia, 2020-12-15) Bale, Adebayo Tajudeen; Osunniran, Wahab Adesina; Obaleye, Joshua Ayoola; Tella, Adedibu Clement; Ayipo, Yusuf Oloruntoyin; Rajee, Abdullahi OlaTransition metal complexes of Cu(II), Co(II) and Ni(II) with eflornithine hydrochloride hydrate (EFN), an antitrypanosomiasis drug, as ligand have been synthesized and characterized by melting point, elemental analysis, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), electronic spectra, magnetic susceptibility and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). The FTIR spectral data suggested the coordination modes of the ligand to be bidentate, coordinated to the metal ions through its carboxylate oxygen atom and an amino nitrogen atom. From the microanalytical data, the stoichiometry of the metal complexes is 1:2 (metal to ligand). The electronic absorption and magnetic susceptibility studies generally suggested octahedral geometry for the metal complexes. Toxicological evaluation of the ligand (EFN) and complexes were carried out using albino rats. Twenty-five albino rats that were used for the experiment were randomly divided into five groups and animals in group 1 served as a control. All the animals were sacrificed twenty-four hours after completion of their doses. The results revealed a high level of toxicity of EFN than the synthesized metal complexes.
