Green and Direct Synthesis of Benzaldehyde and Benzyl Benzoate in One Pot
2018
High yields of valued benzaldehyde and benzyl benzoate are obtained in one pot starting from benzyl alcohol using oxygen as only oxidant under mild conditions (2 bar O2, 100 °C) along with an ultralow amount (0.02 mol %) of Au nanoparticles heterogenized over a spherical ORMOSIL mesoporous support. The process is remarkably selective and the catalyst is stable.
The loss of muscle mass and sarcopenia: non hormonal intervention.
2011
Muscle aging is a key component of the increase in frailty in human populations. The generation of critical levels of power is a prerequisite to perform simple tasks of daily living, such as rising from a chair or climbing stairs. There is great scientific and social interest to determine which behaviors can lead to the maintenance of the muscle mass in young immobilized subjects and in the elderly. Several hormonal treatments have been proposed for the treatment of sarcopenia. However, the side effects associated to these treatments emphasize the need of finding non-toxic and non-hormonal treatments that help increase muscle strength, improve muscle function, and decrease the degree of dep…
Enhancement of Nitro Reduction in Rat Liver Microsomes by Haemin and Haemoproteins
1978
1. Reductive metabolism of p-nitrobenzoic acid and neoprontosil in rat liver microsomes was studied in the presence of haemin, haemoglobin and myoglobin. 2. Microsomal nitro reduction is enhanced 4-fold in the presence of haemoglobin, whereas azo reduction is not affected. 3. Microsomal nitro reduction is enhanced to a similar extent by haemoglobin, haemin and boiled haemoglobin, whereas myoglobin is about half as active. 4. Maximal enhancement of microsomal nitro reductase activity by haemoglobin is achieved at high substrate concentration (6 mM) and low microsomal protein concentration (0.5--1.0 mg/ml). 5. Control microsomal nitro reduction as well as the haemoglobin-enhanced microsomal n…
Conformational equilibrium in supramolecular chemistry: Dibutyltriuret case
2015
The association of substituted benzoates and naphthyridine dianions was used to study the complexation of dibutyltriuret. The title molecule is the simplest molecule able to form two intramolecular hydrogen bonds. The naphthyridine salt was used to break two intramolecular hydrogen bonds at a time while with the use of substituted benzoates the systematic approach to study association was achieved. Both, titrations and variable temperature measurements shed the light on the importance of conformational equilibrium and its influence on association in solution. Moreover, the associates were observed by mass spectrometry. The DFT-based computations for complexes and single bond rotational barr…
Synthesis and characterization of triorganotin(IV) complexes of 5-[(E)-2-(aryl)-1-diazenyl]-2-hydroxybenzoic acids.
2001
Abstract The triphenyltin and tri-n-butyltin complexes of some 5-[(E)-2-(aryl)-1-diazenyl]-2-hydroxybenzoic acids have been synthesized and characterized by 1H-, 13C-, 119Sn-NMR, IR and 119mSn Mossbauer spectroscopic techniques in combination with elemental analysis. The crystal structures of triphenyltin 5-[(E)-2-(aryl)-1-diazenyl]-2-hydroxybenzoates (aryl=phenyl, 2-methylphenyl, 3-methylphenyl and 4-methoxyphenyl) are reported. Both X-ray and 119Sn Mossbauer data indicate that the triphenyltin complexes adopt a monomeric distorted tetrahedral configuration with the carboxylate ligand coordinating in a monodentate mode. By contrast, 119Sn Mossbauer spectroscopy shows that each tributyltin …

Genetic and Biochemical Analysis of PadR-padC Promoter Interactions during the Phenolic Acid Stress Response in Bacillus subtilis 168
2011
ABSTRACT Bacillus subtilis 168 is resistant to phenolic acids by expression of an inducible enzyme, the phenolic acid decarboxylase (PadC), that decarboxylates these acids into less toxic vinyl derivatives. In the phenolic acid stress response (PASR), the repressor of padC , PadR, is inactivated by these acids. Inactivation of PadR is followed by a strong expression of padC . To elucidate the functional interaction between PadR and the padC promoter, we performed (i) footprinting assays to identify the region protected by PadR, (ii) electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSAs) with a modified padC promoter protected region to determine the interacting sequences, and (iii) random mutagenesi…
Towards a Library of “Early‐Late” Ti–Ru Bimetallic Complexes
2005
A series of new titanocene phosphanes 3–6 have been prepared by replacing both chloride atoms at the titanium atom of the complexes [TiCl2(η5-C5H5){η5-C5H4(CH2)2PR2}] (1: R = Ph; 2: R = Cy) by sodium fluoride or sodium benzoate in two-phase systems. Treatment of these new metalloligands with the binuclear complex [(p-cymene)RuCl2]2 affords the targeted titanocene difluoride and titanocene dibenzoate bimetallic ruthenium complexes 8–11. The first chiral Ti–Ru bimetallic complex 12 bearing a binaphthyloxy ligand at the titanium centre has been synthesised in this way. In each series, an X-ray crystal structure has been determined.

Eltrombopag before procedures in patients with cirrhosis and thrombocytopenia
2012
Eltrombopag is an oral thrombopoietin-receptor agonist. This study evaluated the efficacy of eltrombopag for increasing platelet counts and reducing the need for platelet transfusions in patients with thrombocytopenia and chronic liver disease who are undergoing an elective invasive procedure.We randomly assigned 292 patients with chronic liver disease of diverse causes and platelet counts of less than 50,000 per cubic millimeter to receive eltrombopag, at a dose of 75 mg daily, or placebo for 14 days before a planned elective invasive procedure that was performed within 5 days after the last dose. The primary end point was the avoidance of a platelet transfusion before, during, and up to 7…
12 weeks of interferon-based therapy is feasible in patients with hepatitis C-related cirrhosis and thrombocytopenia: A post hoc analysis of eltrombo…
2015
Background: A 24-48-week course of interferon-based therapy poorly tolerated in hepatitis C virus (HCV) cirrhosis patients with thrombocytopenia. Aim of the study was to identify patients at low-risk of liver-related complications over a 12-week course of interferon-based therapy. Methods: We assessed the rate of complications and death during the first 12 weeks of interferon-based therapy in HCV cirrhotics with thrombocytopenia (platelets ≤75×109/L) enrolled in the ENABLE-1 and -2 phase 3 randomised controlled trials. Results: Overall, among 1441 patients, 89 complications (6.9%) and 10 deaths (0.7%) were observed within the first 12 weeks of therapy. At univariate analysis baseline albumi…
