Wavelength-Gated Adaptation of Hydrogel Properties via Photo-Dynamic Multivalency in Associative Star Polymers.
2020
Abstract Responsive materials, such as switchable hydrogels, have been largely engineered for maximum changes between two states. In contrast, adaptive systems target distinct functional plateaus between these maxima. Here, we demonstrate how the photostationary state (PSS) of an E/Z‐arylazopyrazole photoswitch can be tuned by the incident wavelength across a wide color spectrum, and how this behavior can be exploited to engineer the photo‐dynamic mechanical properties of hydrogels based on multivalent photoswitchable interactions. We show that these hydrogels adapt to the wavelength‐dependent PSS and the number of arylazopyrazole units by programmable relationships. Hence, our material des…
Cholesterol-Like Effects of Selective Cyclooxygenase Inhibitors and Fibrates on Cellular Membranes and Amyloid-β Production
2007
Strong evidence suggests a mechanistic link between cholesterol metabolism and the formation of amyloid-beta peptides, the principal constituents of senile plaques found in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease. Here, we show that several fibrates and diaryl heterocycle cyclooxygenase inhibitors, among them the commonly used drugs fenofibrate and celecoxib, exhibit effects similar to those of cholesterol on cellular membranes and amyloid precursor protein (APP) processing. These drugs have the same effects on membrane rigidity as cholesterol, monitored here by an increase in fluorescence anisotropy. The effect of the drugs on cellular membranes was also reflected in the inhibitory…
[Aquabis(nitrato-κO)copper(II)]-μ-{bis[5-methyl-3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]selenide}-[diaqua(nitrato-κO)copper(II)] nitrate monohydrate
2012
In the title binuclear complex, [Cu2(NO3)3(C18H16N6Se)(H2O)3]NO3·H2O, the Cu(II) ions are penta-coordinated in a tetra-gonal-pyramidal geometry. In both cases, the equatorial planes are formed by a chelating pyrazole-pyridine group, a water mol-ecule and a nitrate O atom, whereas the apical positions are occupied by a water mol-ecule for one Cu(II) ion and a nitrate O atom for the other. The organic selenide ligand adopts a trans configuration with respect to the C-Se-C plane. Numerous inter-molecular O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the coordinating and lattice water mol-ecules, nitrate anions and pyrazole groups are observed. π-π stacking inter-actions between the pyridine rings [av…
[Di-aqua-sesqui(nitrato-κO)hemi(perchlorato-κO)copper(II)]-μ-{bis-[5-methyl-3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl] selenide}-[tri-aqua-(perchlorato-κO)cop…

In the binuclear title complex, [Cu2(ClO4)1.5(NO3)1.5(C18H16N6Se)(H2O)5]NO3·H2O, both Cu(II) ions are hexa-coordinated by O and N atoms, thus forming axially elongated CuO4N2 octa-hedra. The equatorial plane of each octa-hedron is formed by one chelating pyrazole-pyridine fragment of the organic ligand and two water mol-ecules. The axial positions in one octa-hedron are occupied by a water mol-ecule and a monodentately coordinated perchlorate anion, while those in the other are occupied by a nitrate anion and a disordered perchlorate/nitrate anion with equal site occupancy. The pyrazole-pyridine units of the organic selenide are trans-oriented to each other with a C-Se-C angle of 96.01 (14)…
Improved Regioselectivity in Pyrazole Formation through the Use of Fluorinated Alcohols as Solvents: Synthesis and Biological Activity of Fluorinated…
2008
The preparation of N-methylpyrazoles is usually accomplished through reaction of a suitable 1,3-diketone with methylhydrazine in ethanol as the solvent. This strategy, however, leads to the formation of regioisomeric mixtures of N-methylpyrazoles, which sometimes are difficult to separate. We have determined that the use of fluorinated alcohols such as 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol (TFE) and 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFIP) as solvents dramatically increases the regioselectivity in the pyrazole formation, and we have used this modification in a straightforward synthesis of fluorinated analogs of Tebufenpyrad with acaricide activity.

3,5-bis(3'-indolyl)pyrazoles, analogues of marine alkaloid nortopsentin: synthesis and antitumor properties.
2007
A series of 10 bis-indolylpyrazoles of type 9, 10 were obtained by cyclization of diketones 8 using hydrazine monohydrate or methylhydrazine in refluxing acetic acid/THF. Derivatives 9a,c,d were selected, by the National Cancer Institute (NCI, Bethesda, USA), to be evaluated against the full panel of about 60 human tumor cell lines derived from nine human cancer cell types and showed antiproliferative activity in the micromolar range. In particular, 9d, the most active compound was effective against all the tested cell lines with a GI(50) mean value of 3.23 microM; TGI and LC(50) values were 14.5 and 58.9 microM having positive response on 91% and 41% of the tested cell lines, respectively.

Based on the encouraging results found for 3,5-dimethyl-6-phenyl-8-(trifluoromethyl)-5,6-dihydropyrazolo[3,4-f][1,2,3,5]tetrazepin-4-(3H)-one 7 previously tested by us, as well as the consideration that heterocycle fused tetrazepinones bearing the 2-chloroethyl substituent show a better cytotoxic profile than temozolomide and mitozolomide against human cancer cell lines which express the DNA repair protein O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT), in this paper we report the multistep synthesis and the biological study of 3-(2-cloroethyl)-5-methyl-6-phenyl-8-(trifluoromethyl)-5,6-dihydropyrazolo[3,4-f][1,2,3,5]tetrazepin-4-(3H)-one 10. Like compound 7, it was active on P-glycoprotein e…
Trichosporon beigelii pneumonia in a neutropenic patient.
1989
A case of pulmonary infection caused by Trichosporon beigelii is reported in an asthmatic patient undergoing steroid treatment who developed fever and lung infiltrates. Arthroconidia and blastoconidia were isolated from repeated sputum, bronchial aspirate and telescopic catheter samples. The infection coincided with neutropenia resulting from pyrazolone treatment. The response to amphotericin B treatment was favourable.
In vitro and in vivo anticryptococcal activities of a new pyrazolo-isothiazole derivative
2003
We investigated the activity of a pyrazolo-isothiazole derivative (G8) against Cryptococcus neoformans. A first screening test showed that G8 at 10 mg/L inhibited the growth of 14 of 15 clinical isolates tested. Killing experiments showed that fungicidal activity was achieved after 8 h of treatment with G8 at concentrations > or =10 mg/L. In a murine model of systemic cryptococcosis, G8 was effective at prolonging survival compared with the controls. Our data indicate that this new derivative has a potential therapeutic role in infections caused by C. neoformans.
