    Synthesis and fungicidal activity of 2-aminopyrimidine schiff bases
    (Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana, 2021) Amanpreet Kaur; Sharma, Sunita
    2-Aminopyrimidines represent an important class of bioactive molecules where its structural changes would lead to its versatile properties. N-Heterocyclic compound i.e. 2aminopyrimidine had wide range of applications in medicinal, material chemistry and agriculture as antifungal, antimicrobial and antibacterial agents. In the present study, a series of substituted N-benzylidine-2-aminopyrimidine compounds were synthesized by condensation reaction of 2-aminopyrimidine with substituted benzaldehydes (o-chloro, mhydroxybenzaldehyde, p-hydroxybenzaldehyde, 2,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde, pdimethylaminobenzaldehye, syringaldehyde, o-phthaldehyde, isovanillin benzaldehyde, veratraldehyde and thiophene-2-carboxyaldehyde). The synthesised Schiff bases were characterized using UV, IR, 1H NMR and 13C spectral studies. The antifungal activity of all the synthesized Schiff bases was screened against Fusarium verticillioides, Macrophomina phaseolina, and Rhizoctonia solani using poisoned food technique. The Schiff base of pdimethylaminobenzaldehyde and 2-aminopyrimidine showed hundred percent inhibition against all the three fungi but less than carbendazim at 50 WP as its ED50 was less than all the synthesized Schiff bases. Thus, in future, this kind of pyrimidine derivatives may be used to generate better fungicides with improved fungicidal activities.

    Electron-acoustic waves in quantum plasma with κdeformed Kaniadakis hot electrons
    (Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana, 2020) Amanpreet Kaur; Parveen Bala
    The propagation properties of electron acoustic waves (EAWs) are studied in the quantum plasma system containing inertialess hot electrons, inertial cold electrons and stationary ions which forms the charge neutralizing background for understanding the properties of solitary wave structures. It is assumed that hot electrons follow κ-deformed Kaniadakis distribution, governed by parameter κ. The dispersion relation is obtained using the linearization method. Using the appropriate stretched coordinates and reductive perturbation method (RPM) the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) and modified KdV (mKdV) equation has been derived. For the analysis, a limit of range of deformation parameter (κ) has been set as -0.4≤κ ≤0.4. For the defined range, it has been observed that plasma system supports rarefactive solitary structures. The amplitude and width of KdV soliton have been significantly affected by quantum parameter (H), whereas amplitude and width of solitary wave remains unaffected by deformation parameter (κ). The analysis was further extended to explain double layers solution in such plasma system. It is found that rarefactive double layers significantly depend on deformation parameter (κ), quantum parameter (H) and hot to cold electron density ratio (α). The presented investigation may be helpful to understand the study of nonlinear waves in the astrophysical plasmas.
