Bleomycin, an Antibiotic That Removes Thymine from Double-Stranded DNA

1977

Publisher Summary This chapter reviews that bleomycins are members of a new class of DNA-modifying agents, the quasi-enzymes. In in vitro systems, bleomycin first removes thymines from native DNA by hydrolysis of the N-glycosidic bonds without modifying the deoxyribose moiety. In a second step, single-strand scissions occur at the sites of the nonglycosidic deoxyribose moieties, resulting in the formation of 3'-OH and 5'-P termini. It is suggested that bleomycin is bound to DNA by interaction of the positively charged terminal amine moiety with the negatively charged phosphate group in DNA; intercalation seems to be involved in binding. Bleomycin is inactivated by copper and zinc ions, prob…

ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis of Trifluoromethylated 2-Benzoyl- and 2-Aminoimidazoles from Ring Rearrangement of 1,2,4-Oxadiazole Derivatives.

2008

Abstract Fluoroalkylated 2-ylamino-imidazoles have been synthesized by reaction of 3-amino-5-phenyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole with fluorinated β-dicarbonyl compounds and subsequent base-induced Boulton–Katritzky Rearrangement (BKR) of the isolated β-enaminocarbonyl intermediate. Alternatively, one-pot reactions performed in the presence of Montmorillonite K10 favoured the condensation at the 3-amino moiety of the oxadiazole and, in some cases, allowed the direct synthesis of 2-benzoylamino-imidazoles. Hydrolysis of 2-benzoylamino-imidazoles easily yielded fluorinated 2-amino-imidazoles targets.

Liposomes from α,ω-dipolar amphiphiles with a polymerizable diyne moiety in the hydrophobic chain

1982

Symmetric polymerizable α,ω-dipolar C22-diacetylenes were prepared by oxidative coupling of 10-undecynoic acid and 10-undecynol, respectively, by means of copper II salts in ethanolic solution. 10,12-Docosadiyne-1,22-diphosphate (3)—by reaction of 10,12-docosadiyne-1,22-diol (2) with POCl3—was polymerized in aqueous solution using UV irradiation to form deep blue, thermochromic solutions. By consonication of 3 with cholesterol, monolayer vesicles were formed. This was proven by encapsulation of 6-carboxyfluorescein. These monomeric vesicles were polymerized by UV light to yield stable, deep blue polymeric vesicle suspensions.

Structure and properties of zwitterionic polysoaps: functionalization by redox-switchable moieties

2007

Redoxactive monomeric and polymeric surfactants containing viologen and N-alkylated nicotinic acid moieties were synthesized. These systems are potentially able to trigger reversible changes of self-organization by creation or removal of a charge via a redox reaction. Hence, they are investigated with respect to solubility, aggregation behavior, and their electrochemical properties in water. — All monomers, but only the viologen polymers are water-soluble and drastically decrease the surface tension of water. Critical micelle concentrations are observed for the monomers only. — The chemical reversibility of the redox reactions of the compounds in water was investigated using cyclic voltamme…

ChemInform Abstract: Electroorganic Synthesis of Nitriles via a Halogen-Free Domino Oxidation-Reduction Sequence.

2016

A direct electroorganic sequence yielding nitriles from oximes in undivided cells is reported. Despite the fact that intermediate nitrile oxides might be formed, the method is viable to prepare benzonitriles without substituents ortho to the aldoxime moiety. This constant current method is easy to perform for a broad scope of substrates and employs common electrodes, such as graphite and lead.

ChemInform Abstract: Cooperative Assistance in Bifunctional Organocatalysis: Enantioselective Mannich Reactions with Aliphatic and Aromatic Imines.

2013

both of which contain a thiourea moiety (Scheme 1).The catalysts are capable of deprotonating suitable nucleo-philes, such as activated carbonyl compounds. This proton-transfer reaction generates an ion pair, which is composed ofthe protonated catalyst and the anionic nucleophile interact-ing through hydrogen bonds. At least one of the NH moietiesin the protonated catalyst is involved in activating theelectrophilic reaction partner.

Photochemical isomerization of aryl hydrazones of 1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives into the corresponding triazoles

2012

The photochemical version of the Boulton-Katritzky reaction has been studied, examining the behaviour of the arylhydrazones of 3-benzoyl-5-X-1,2,4-oxadiazoles. The effect of several modifications of the substrates structure (the E and/or Z structures of arylhydrazones, the possible presence of substituents in the arylhydrazono moiety, and the nature of substituents at C-5 of the 1,2,4-oxadiazole ring) on the course of the photochemical rearrangement has been examined.

Synthesis of new 2,2′-disubstituted 5,5′-dimethyl-4,4′-bitriazoles and 2-(4-Triazolyl)quinoxalines

2000

Thermal rearrangement of 3-acylisoxazole arylhydrazones allowed facile preparation of 2H-1,2,3-triazoles which were firstly reacted with isoamyl nitrite and then with an opportune arylhydrazine to produce the corresponding α-hydroxyiminohydrazones 8a-h. The reaction of compounds 8a-h with phosphorus pentachloride afforded the desired 4,4′-bitriazoles 1a-h. The α-hydroxyiminoketone derivative 7 or the α-diketone 14 reacted easily with 1,2-phenylenediamine to afford 1,2,3-triazoles 2a-c bearing the quinoxaline moiety at position 4. Improved yields of the quinoxalines 2a-c were obtained when 1,2-phenylenediamine was reacted with the dioxime 15.

Kinetische Racematspaltungen ausgehend vonrac-Alkoholen oderrac-Carbonsäurehalogeniden unter Mitwirkung optisch aktiver Induktorbasen

1989

Bei der Umsetzung eines Molaquivalents achiraler Carbonsaurehalogenide mit zwei Molaquivalenten rac-Alkoholen entstehen unter Mitwirkung von einem Molaquivalent einer optisch aktiven Induktorbase (tertiares Amin) partiell optisch aktive Ester sowie partiell optisch aktive Alkohole in zum Teil hoher optischer Reinheit (60 – 70%). Der im Ester gebundene Anteil an Alkohol sowie der nicht umgesetzte Alkohol haben entgegengesetzte Konfiguration. Der Induktionsgrad ist ahnlich hoch, wenn man zwei Molaquivalente eines rac-Carbonsaurehalogenids mit je einem Molaquivalent eines achiralen Alkohols und einer Induktorbase umsetzt. Der Carbonsaureanteil im Ester und die freie Saure haben entgegengesetzt…
