Optimization Strategy of Novel Peptide-Based Michael Acceptors for the Treatment of Human African Trypanosomiasis
2019
This paper describes an optimization strategy of the highly active vinyl ketone 3 which was recognized as a strong inhibitor of rhodesain of Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense, endowed with a ksecond v...
Copper-catalyzed regioselective synthesis of (E)-β-fluorovinyl sulfones
2019
Organofluorine compounds are finding increasing application in a variety of fields such as pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and material sciences. However, given the scarcity of fluorine-containing natural products, advancement in this area depends almost entirely on the development of new synthetic methodologies. In this article, we present the synthesis of a series of previously undescribed (E)-&beta
Synthesis, stability and spectral behavior of fluorogenic sulfone-pyronin and sulfone-rosamine dyes
2018
International audience; The first synthesis of sulfone-pyronin and sulfone-rosamine dyes bearing optically tunable primary amino groups (acting as fluorogenic centers) is presented. Sulfone analogs of xanthene-based fluorophores have recently been highlighted as a new class of near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent dyes (Liu et al. ACS Appl Mater Interfaces 2016; 8(35):22953-62), and the availability of fluorogenic derivatives is essential for the rapid construction of “turn-on” reactive probes for chemoselective bioimaging. However, these fluorescent anilines have been found to be unstable in aqueous physiological conditions due to the marked electrophilicity of their meso-position and hence its …
Sildenafil protects epithelial cell through the inhibition of xanthine oxidase and the impairment of ROS production
2009
Recent reports suggest that xanthine oxidase (XO), a modified form of the native xanthine dehydrogenase enzyme, plays an important role in various forms of ischemic and vascular injuries, inflammatory diseases, and chronic heart failure. The XO inhibitors allopurinol and its oxidation product oxypurinol held considerable promises in the treatment of these conditions both in experimental animals and in human clinical trials. More recently, an endothelium-based protective effect of sildenafil, a well-known type-5 phosphodiesterase inhibitor, has been reported in preconditioning prior to ischemia/reperfusion in healthy human subjects. Based on the structural similarities between allopurinol an…
Chemoselektive Fluoreszenzstudien am Subtilisin und “Thiosubtilisin”
1985
Chemoselective Fluorescence Studies with Subtilisin and “Thiosubtilisin” The serine hydroxy group in the active site of subtilisin is selectively “phosphylated”3). This is demonstrated using the fluorescent phosphinic fluoride 1. “Thiosubtilisin” does not react with 1 but with the SH-selective and fluorescent vinyl sulfone 2.
Palladium-catalyzed heteroaryl thioethers synthesis overcoming palladium dithiolate resting states inertness: Practical road to sulfones and NH-sulfo…
2018
International audience; We provide efficient synthetic access to heteroaryl sulfones in two-steps using a simple palladium-1,1'-bis [(diphenyl)phosphanyl]ferrocene catalyst to form in high yields variously functionalized heteroaromatic thioethers. Pyridinyl-containing substrates can be subsequently selectively oxidized into sulfones and NH-sulfoximines by using very mild oxidation conditions with a high functional group tolerance. In the palladium catalyzed C-S coupling of heteroaromatic thiols, reactivity limitation is attached with electron-deficient thiols. We show that this limitation can be resolved by the successful use of 2-bromoheteroarenes in the C-S coupling. We established herein…
Solid state electrochemical behavior of organosulfur compounds
2017
Abstract The solid-sate electrochemistry of organosulfur compounds existing in petroleum and its derived matrices is described using the voltammetry of immobilized microparticles methodology. Cyclic and square wave voltammogrammetric responses of sulfur compounds responsible of aging of asphalt pavements, namely, thiophenes, disulfides, sulfides, sulfoxides and sulfones were determined at compound-modified graphite electrodes in contact with 0.10 M H2SO4. The electrochemical oxidation/reduction products were characterized by attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersion x-ray detection (SEM-EDX) couple…
Environmental analysis of chlorinated aromatic thioethers, sulphoxides and sulphones
1993
Abstract Chlorinated aromatic thioethers discussed here are polychlorinated dibenzothiophenes, thianthrenes and diphenylsulphides. Relatively little is known about their occurrence, behaviour and fate in the environment. Polychlorinated dibenzothiophenes and diphenylsulphides have recently been found to be formed in waste combustion and analysed in pulp mill effluents. Chlorinated sulphoxides and sulphones are usually metabolites or oxidation products of different chlorinated aromatic compounds. Different gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric techniques are used in the analysis of the chlorinated thioethers. The sulphoxides and sulphones, because of their higher polarity, can be isolated f…
New acetylenes fromChrysanthemum coronarium L.
1990
The investigation of the aerial parts of Chrysanthemum coronarium yielded, in addition to several known compounds, two new acetylenic sulfoxides 9 and 10, and a new thiophene spiroacetal enol ether 11. Their structures were deduced by spectroscopic and chemical methods.
Quick and reliable routes to phase diagrams for polyethersulfone and polysulfone membrane formation
2000
Phase diagrams were measured and calculated for the ternary membrane forming systems DMF/water/polysulfone and DMF/water/polyethersulfone at different temperatures. Customary experiments yielded cloud point curves, tie lines, and critical compositions. The theoretical computation starts from the Flory-Huggins theory and employs binary interaction parameters g ij that vary with the composition. This information was mainly obtained by means of Headspace-Gas Chromatography (HSGC, yielding the partial pressures of the volatile components); these data were complemented by light scattering and swelling experiments. The calculation of binodals, spinodals, tie lines, and critical points avoids the …
