2-(Benzyloxy)-1-naphthaldehyde is a synthetic compound that has been shown to inhibit the growth of P. aeruginosa. The synthesis of 2-(benzyloxy)-1-naphthaldehyde was achieved through the copper complex reaction with chalcone, which produced this compound in an efficient manner. In addition, 2-(benzyloxy)-1-naphthaldehyde has been shown to be a potent inhibitor of methyltransferase and dihedral molecular geometry studies. This makes it an attractive target for cancer therapy as well as Alzheimer's disease research because it inhibits the production of amyloid beta peptides, which are linked to these diseases.

Sulfathiazole is a sulfonamide antibacterial agent with a chemical structure similar to that of the sulfa drugs. It is active against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including those resistant to other antibiotics. Sulfathiazole has been shown to be effective against infectious diseases caused by Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, and Salmonella typhi. The mechanism of action of sulfathiazole is not fully understood. One hypothesis is that it inhibits the synthesis of folic acid in bacteria by inhibiting enzymes involved in purine metabolism. This drug also has complex pharmacological effects on human cells because it can inhibit both receptor activity and enzyme activity in complex cellular processes such as protein synthesis and DNA synthesis.
