From attraction to repulsion : anion–π interactions between bromide and fluorinated phenyl groups
2011
Anion–π interactions in crystals of fluorobenzyl ammonium salts depend on the degree of fluorination at the aromatics.
Self-assembly of 3,5-bis(ethoxycarbonyl)pyrazolate anions and ammonium cations of β-phenylethylamine or homoveratrylamine into hetero-double-stranded…
2009
Hydrogen-bonded double-stranded hetero-helices are formed when reacting sodium 3,5-bis(ethoxycarbonyl)pyrazolate with beta-phenethylammonium or homoveratrylammonium chloride, in which one of the strands is defined by the ammonium cations and the other one by the pyrazolate anions.
Chiral Monofluorobenzyl Carbanions: Synthesis of Enantiopure β‐Fluorinated β‐Phenylethylamines
2011
The preparation of a stabilized monofluorobenzyl carbanion by means of a remote homochiral sulfinyl group and its completely stereoselective reactions with N-p-tolylsulfinylimines are described. The use of these reactions followed by the simultaneous removal of both chiral auxiliaries with tBuLi, which occurs without epimerization at the benzylic position, provides the quickest entry to enantiomerically pure β-fluorinated β-phenylethylamines.
Mitochondrial glutathione depletion by glutamine in growing tumor cells.
2000
The effect of L-glutamine (Gln) on mitochondrial glutathione (mtGSH) levels in tumor cells was studied in vivo in Ehrlich ascites tumor (EAT)-bearing mice. Tumor growth was similar in mice fed a Gln-enriched diet (GED; where 30% of the total dietary nitrogen was from Gln) or a nutritionally complete elemental diet (SD). As compared with non-tumor-bearing mice, tumor growth caused a decrease of blood Gln levels in mice fed an SD but not in those fed a GED. Tumor cells in mice fed a GED showed higher glutaminase and lower Gln synthetase activities than did cells isolated from mice fed an SD. Cytosolic glutamate concentration was 2-fold higher in tumor cells from mice fed a GED ( approximately…
Polyfunctional recognition of pyridinedicarboxylate anions with macrocyclic polyamine receptors containing heteroaromatic groups.
2008
The interaction of the biologically relevant anions deriving from the six pyridinedicarboxylic acids (H2PDC) with two macrocyclic receptors containing a pentamine chain and a bipyridine (1) or a phenanthroline (2) moiety, as well as with the aliphatic analogue [21]aneN7 (3), was studied by means of spectroscopic methods (UV-vis, NMR) and potentiometric titrations affording the stability constants of the adducts formed. All three receptors form stable complexes with the substrates thanks to the formation of several salt bridges and hydrogen bond contacts, as observed in the crystal structure of the H8[3(2,6-PDC)4] x H2O x 0.5 EtOH solid compound. Additional pi-stacking interactions between t…
Bis(5-tert-butyl-2-hydroxy-3-methylbenzyl)(6-hydroxyhexyl)ammonium chloride monohydrate, an anion receptor complex
2007
In the title compound, C(30)H(48)NO(3)(+) x Cl(-) x H(2)O, the cation acts with a water molecule as a chloride ion receptor. The chloride ion forms three strong intramolecular hydrogen bonds. The water molecule forms both an intramolecular bridge between one phenol H atom and the chloride ion, and an intermolecular link to the aliphatic alcohol O atom. Weak intermolecular C-H...Cl and C-H ...O hydrogen bonds provide additional packing interactions.
Influence of the anions on the structure and magnetic properties of a series of bis(µ-diphexono)-bridged linear trinuclear copper(II) complexes: an e…
2011
The reaction of H(2)L (N,N'-dimethyl-N,N'-bis(2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-5-methylbenzyl)-ethylenediamine) with different copper salts, in methanol and using a H(2)L/Cu = 2 : 3 molar ratio, led to four new bis(μ-diphenoxo)-bridged Cu(3) complexes of general formula [{Cu(S)(μ-L)}(2)Cu(H(2)O)(2n)]X(2) (S = CH(3)OH, n = 1 and X = BF(4)(-) for (1) or ClO(4)(-) for (2); S = Br(3)(-) anion and n = 1 without any X species for (3); S = H(2)O, n = 0 and X = NO(3)(-) for (4)). The use in the same reaction conditions of 4,4'-bipyridine (4,4'-bipy) as connector led to the chain complex [{Cu(μ-4,4'-bipy)(0.5)(μ-L)}(2)Cu(H(2)O)(2n)](ClO(4))(2)·17H(2)O (5). The structure of the centrosymmetric trinuclear unit in …
Synthesis of [1,2]oxazolo[5,4-e]indazoles as antitumour agents
2013
Abstract A series of 40 derivatives of the [1,2]oxazolo[5,4-e]indazoles ring system have been prepared with good yields using a versatile and convenient route. Annelation of the [1,2]oxazole ring on the indazole-4-one system was achieved by reaction of the corresponding enaminoketones with hydroxylamine hydrochloride. Derivatives of the title ring system were tested by the National Cancer Institute of Bethesda and one of them (13t) showed growth-inhibitor activity against all the 54 human tumour cell lines generally at low micromolar concentrations.
Synthesis, characterization and the first crystal structure of the Zn(II) complex of 4,6-O-ethylidine-N-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-β-D-glucopyranosylamine
2001
4,6-O-Ethylidine-N-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-β-D-glucopyranosylamine (H3L1) and N-(5-bromo-2-hydroxybenzylidene-4,6-O-ethylidine-β-D-glucopyranosylamine (H3L2) molecules possessing a–C-1–N=C(H)–moiety for metal-ion binding were synthesized by condensing the 4,6–O–ethylidene–β–D–glucopyranosylamine with salicylaldehyde or 5–bromosalicylaldehyde. Complexes of these ligands with Zn(II) were isolated and characterized using elemental analysis, FTIR, UV–Vis absorption, NMR spectroscopic and FAB mass spectrometric techniques. The structure of the Zn(II) complex derived from H3L1 was established for the first time by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. The anomeric nature of the saccharide moie…
Molecular bases of anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder: shedding light on the darkness
2017
International audience; Eating-disorders (EDs) consequences to human health are devastating, involving social, mental, emotional, physical and life-threatening aspects, concluding on impairment and death in cases of extreme anorexia nervosa. It also implies that people suffering an ED need to find psychiatric and psychological help as soon as possible to achieve a fully physical and emotional recovery. Unfortunately, to date, there is a crucial lack of efficient clinical treatment to these disorders. In this review, we present an overview concerning the actual pharmacological and psychological treatments, the knowledge of cells, circuits, neuropeptides, neuromodulators and hormones in the h…
