The Chemistry of [1,2,3]Triazolo[1,5- a] pyridines
2003
The reactivity of [1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridines 1 is described. Triazolopyridines react with electrophiles in two contrasting ways, giving 3-substituted triazolopyridines 2, or products 3, resulting from triazolo ring opening with loss of molecular nitrogen. The triazolopyridines can be lithiated at -40 degrees C by lithium diisopropylamide in ether giving regiospecifically the 7-lithio derivative. Bromotriazolopyridines have activation towards nucleophilic substitution at position 5 and 7, and benzenoid inertness at position 6. The parent compound 1a is easily hydrogenated giving tetrahydrotriazolopyridine 11a in high yield; when the triazolopyridines have substituents, the hydrogenation…
Modification of Plasma Membrane Organization in Tobacco Cells Elicited by Cryptogein
2014
Abstract Lipid mixtures within artificial membranes undergo a separation into liquid-disordered and liquid-ordered phases. However, the existence of this segregation into microscopic liquid-ordered phases has been difficult to prove in living cells, and the precise organization of the plasma membrane into such phases has not been elucidated in plant cells. We developed a multispectral confocal microscopy approach to generate ratiometric images of the plasma membrane surface of Bright Yellow 2 tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) suspension cells labeled with an environment sensitive fluorescent probe. This allowed the in vivo characterization of the global level of order of this membrane, by which w…
X-Ray and NMR Studies on Host-Guest Inclusion Complex Formation between Crown Ethers and Pyridinium Compounds
1998
Aromatic–aromatic, π–π, and cation–π interactions can be exploited in the preparation of molecular complexes between benzene-substituted crown ethers and pyridium cations. These complexes have been studied in the gas phase, in solution, and in the solid state; the structure of one of the complexes is depicted on the right.
Synthesis of Pillar[6]arenes and Their Host–Guest Complexes
2015
Pillar[n]arenes are a fast-growing research topic in supramolecular chemistry. Originally the focus was predominantly on pillar[5]arenes; however, now more and more studies on pillar[6]arenes are being performed. The ability and selectivity of host–guest complexations depend strongly on the size of the inner cavities of these macrocycles. New results have stimulated us to compile the synthetic entries and the complexations of pillar[6]arenes with large cylindric cavities that offer space for many different guest molecules. 1 Introduction 2 Preparation of Pillar[6]arenes 2.1 Pillar[6]arenes by Macrocyclization Reactions 2.2 Hydroxypillar[6]arenes through Ether Cleavage 2.3 Hydroxypillar[6]ar…

The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of 1H-pyridinium-3-olate and 1-methylpyridinium-3-olate with methyl acrylate: a density functional theory study
2010
The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of 1-substituted pyridinium 3-olates with methyl acrylate is studied using density functional theory (DFT) method at the B3LYP/6-31G(d) level. The molecular mechanisms of the possible stereo- and regio-chemical pathways are characterized and explored. Solvent effects are also evaluated by the polarizable continuum model (PCM). Analysis of the results shows that there are relevant differences in the reaction pathways between the gas phase and with solvent. Only results in solvent phase are in accord with literature experimental results where 6-substituted 8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-3-en-2-ones are formed preferentially. These polar cycloaddition reactions t…
Studies of the physicochemical and structural properties of self-assembling cationic pyridine derivatives as gene delivery agents.
2015
New amphiphilic pyridine derivatives containing dodecyloxycarbonyl substituents at positions 3 and 5 and cationic moieties at positions 2 and 6 have been designed and synthesised. Compounds of this type can be considered as synthetic lipids. The corresponding 1,4-dihydropyridine (1,4-DHP) derivatives have earlier been proposed as a promising tool for plasmid DNA (pDNA) delivery in vitro. In this work studies of the self-assembling properties of amphiphilic pyridine derivatives leading to the formation of liposomes, determination of particle size, zeta-potential and critical micelle concentration (CMC) with dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements are described. Furthermore, thermal analy…
In vitro evaluation of the antibacterial activity of cured dentin/enamel adhesive incorporating the antimicrobial agent MDPB
2010
The aim of this study was to investigate in vitro the antibacterial effect of a dentin/enamel adhesive containing MDPB (Clearfil Protect Bond) after curing and to compare it with an adhesive not containing MDPB (Clearfil SE Bond). The antibacterial effect of the cured adhesives was tested on Enterococcus faecalis by the evaluation of growth inhibition in a 48-h microplate direct contact test (DCT). The presence of antibacterial activity due to soluble components was also investigated by an agar diffusion test (ADT) performed with the adhesives cured on the surface of dentin disks. In the DCT, both the tested materials showed complete inhibition of bacterial growth until the 7-h reading, reg…
Charged Tags for the Identification of Oxidative Drug Metabolites Based on Electrochemistry and Mass Spectrometry
2020
Abstract Most of the active pharmaceutical ingredients like Metoprolol are oxidatively metabolized by liver enzymes, such as Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases into oxygenates and therefore hydrophilic products. It is of utmost importance to identify the metabolites and to gain knowledge on their toxic impacts. By using electrochemistry, it is possible to mimic enzymatic transformations and to identify metabolic hot spots. By introducing charged‐tags into the intermediate, it is possible to detect and isolate metabolic products. The identification and synthesis of initially oxidized metabolites are important to understand possible toxic activities. The gained knowledge about the metabolism will…

1975
Es wird die Synthese der drei isomeren 3-(Pyridylmethyl)- und 3-(Piperidylmethyl)-5-hydroxyindole beschrieben. Die 3-(Pyridilmethyl)-5-benzyloxyindole wurden durch Kondensation von 5-Benzyloxyindolylmagnesiumbromid mit den drei isomeren Chlormethyl-pyridinbasen dargestellt. Katalytische Reduktion ihrer quartaren Salze fuhrte zu den entsprechenden Piperidinverbindungen. Die 5-Benzyloxyindole wurden durch hydrierende Debenzylierung in die 5-Hydroxyindolverbindungen ubergefuhrt. 3-(Pyridylmethyl)- and 3-(Piperidylmethyl)-5-hydroxyindoles The synthesis of the three isomeric 3-(pyridylmethyl)- and the 3-(piperidylmethyl)-5-hydroxyindoles is described.
