<strong>In Silico Repurposing, Design, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Bisacodyl Analogues</strong>

2018

In a recent article was described in silico repositioning, design, synthesis, biological evaluation and structure-activity relationship (SAR) of an original class of anti-inflammatory agents based on a polyaromatic pharmacophore structurally related to bisacodyl (BSL) drug used in therapeutic as laxative.

Enantiomeric separation of amphetamine and related compounds by liquid chromatography using precolumn derivatization witho-phthaldialdehyde

2002

The utility of the derivatization reagento-phthaldialdehyde (OPA) in combination with the chiral thiol N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) for the enantioselective analysis of primary amphetamines and structurally related substances has been investigated. The diastereomers obtained have been chromatographed on an achiral, reversed phase C18 column (125 mm×4 mm i.d., 5 μm), and detected fluorimetrically. The influence of parameters affecting the chromatographic separation as well as the derivatization reaction has been optimized, using amphetamine, norephedrine, norepinephrine and 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDA) as model compounds. On the basis of the results obtained, possible conditions for the …

Boron-Doped Diamond Electrodes for Electroorganic Chemistry

2011

Boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrodes provide an unusually wide electrochemical window in protic media, since there exist large offset potentials for the evolution of molecular hydrogen and oxygen, respectively. At the anode, alcohols are specifically converted to alkoxyl radicals. These can be used for chemical synthesis. When the enormous reactivity of such intermediate spin centers is not controlled, mineralization or electrochemical incineration dominates. Efficient strategies include either high substrate concentrations or fluorinated alcohols which seem to stabilize the spin centers in the course of reaction.

New reactions and step economy: the total synthesis of (±)-salsolene oxide based on the type II transition metal-catalyzed intramolecular [4+4] cyclo…

2006

Studies on the viability of the type II nickel-catalyzed intramolecular [4+4] cycloaddition of bis-dienes show that it is influenced by both diene substitution and geometry. Both E- and Z-isomers of 19 and 20 react, albeit at markedly different rates, to afford cycloadducts, whereas only the Z-isomer of 9 (and not the E-isomer) reacts to give 8 and 25. Chemoselective elaboration of 8 to (±)-salsolene oxide (7) was used to confirm the cycloadduct structure while establishing a step economical route to the natural product.

Diastereoselective synthesis of spongian diterpenes. Total synthesis of the furanoditerpene (−)-spongia-13(16),14-diene

1999

Abstract An effective diastereoselective synthesis of the marine-sponge metabolite (−)-spongia-13(16),14-diene 1 is achieved starting from S-(+)-carvone via a homochiral phenanthrenone as the key intermediate for the construction of the furan ring system. S-(+)-Carvone was transformed into the phenanthrenone 2a in six steps (53% overall yield), using an intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction as the key step. Conversion of the enone function in 2a into an epoxyaldehyde function followed by cyclisation and aromatisation in acid conditions completed the construction of ring D.

Patterns and dynamics of neutral lipid fatty acids in ants – implications for ecological studies

2017

Background Trophic interactions are a fundamental aspect of ecosystem functioning, but often difficult to observe directly. Several indirect techniques, such as fatty acid analysis, were developed to assess these interactions. Fatty acid profiles may indicate dietary differences, while individual fatty acids can be used as biomarkers. Ants are among the most important terrestrial animal groups, but little is known about their lipid metabolism, and no study so far used fatty acids to study their trophic ecology. We set up a feeding experiment with high- and low-fat food to elucidate patterns and dynamics of neutral lipid fatty acids (NLFAs) assimilation in ants. We asked whether dietary fatt…

Crystal structure of 4,6-O-ethylidene-N-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-β-D-glucopyranosylamine

2002

4,6-O-Ethylidene-N-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-β-D-glucopyranosylamine was synthesized and characterized using analytical, spectral and single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The anomeric nature of the saccharide moiety was proposed based on 1H NMR studies and was confirmed by the crystal structure. The lattice structure of this compound was compared with that of its analogues.

Influence of the pH on the ZnO nanoparticle growth in supercritical water: Experimental and simulation approaches

2014

Abstract In order to improve the knowledge on the nucleation and the growth mechanisms of metal oxides nanoparticles produced in supercritical water domain, ZnO was used as a “model” material. A continuous process of hydrothermal synthesis was employed to synthesize ZnO nanopowders ( T  = 410 °C and P  = 305 bar) from Zn(NO 3 ) 2 and KOH solutions with different values of [KOH]/[Zn(II)] ratio from 0 to 8 in order to investigate the pH effect on the growth of ZnO nanocrystallite in terms of size and morphology. The samples were characterized by X-Ray Diffraction and Transmission Electronic Microscopy. ZnO crystal was considered as a cylindrical crystallite with a diameter D and height H . Es…

Mechanically Activated SHS Reaction in the Fe-Al System: In Situ Time Resolved Diffraction Using Synchrotron Radiation

1998

The Mechanical Activation Self propagating High temperature Synthesis (M.A.S.H.S.) processing is a new way to produce nanocrystalline iron aluminide intermetallic compounds. This process is maily the combination of two steps ; in the one hand, a mechanical activation where the Fe - Al powder mixture was milled during a short time at given energy and frequency of shocks and in the other hand, a Self propagating High temperature Synthesis (S.H.S.) reaction, for which the exothermicity of the Fe + Al reaction is used. This fast propagated MASHS reaction has been in -situ investigated using the Time Resolved X - Ray Diffraction (TRXRD) using a X - ray synchrotron beam and an infrared thermograp…
