The Effect of Phosphinothricin (Glufosinate) on Glutathione Synthesis in Plants
1990
The inhibitory effect of DL-phosphinothricin (glufosinate) on glutathione synthesis was studied in vivo and in vitro. The influence of phosphinothricin on γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase was compared with the already known effects of l-buthionine sulfoximine and l-methionine sulfoximine. The results showed that phosphinothricin and buthionine sulfoximine are inhibitors of γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase of plants. With both substances the enzyme was inhibited by 50 % at a concentration of 7 . 10−4M (pI50 = 3.15). Methionine sulfoximine reduced the enzyme activity by 50% at 5 . 10−2 M (pI50 = 1.30). It is discussed that the target enzyme of phosphinothricin is the glutamine synthetase whereas th…
Palladium-catalyzed reaction of boronic acids with chiral and racemic alpha-bromo sulfoxides.
2004
Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of racemic alpha-bromo sulfoxides with boronic acids are carried out in either aqueous or nonaqueous medium with formation of a new C sp(3)-C sp(2) bond. The arylation of chiral alpha-bromo sulfoxides occurs without racemization. The cross-coupling reaction is general and gives high yields with arylboronic acids substituted with either donor or acceptor groups but gives poor results with heteroarylboronic acids. The best yields are obtained using degassed solvents and CsF instead of aqueous base. The use of aqueous base and the presence of oxygen favor the homocoupling side reaction.

Dimethyl sulfoxide is a well-known and widely used dermal penetration enhancer. Its incorporation in transdermal patches would be highly desirable
Mechanism of the Oxidation of Sulfides by Dioxiranes. 1. Intermediacy of a 10-S-4 Hypervalent Sulfur Adduct
2002
Earlier studies established that dimethyldioxirane (1a) reacts with sulfides 2 in two consecutive concerted electrophilic oxygen-transfer steps to give first sulfoxides 3 and then sulfones 4. The same sequential electrophilic oxidation model was assumed for the reaction of sulfides 2 with the strongly electrophilic methyl(trifluoromethyl)dioxirane (1b). In this paper we report on a systematic and general study on the mechanism of the reaction of simple sulfides 2 with DMDO (1a) and TFDO (1b) which provides clear evidence for the involvement of hypervalent sulfur species in the oxidation process. In the oxidation of sulfides 2a-c, diphenyl sulfide (2d), para-substituted aryl methyl sulfides …
Oxidation of Sulfides with a Silica-Supported Peracid in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide under Flow Conditions: Tuning Chemoselectivity with Pressure
2010
Supercritical carbon dioxide is a convenient medium for performing the selective oxidation of sulfides 1 to either sulfoxides 2 or sulfones 3 with [2-percarboxyethyl]-functionalized silica (4) under flow conditions. The chemoselectivity of the reaction, which results from the different diffusion rates of sulfide and sulfoxide over the reagent bed, can be controlled by adjusting the pressure and the hydration of the silica surface as both the solvating power of the mobile phase and the surface activity of the stationary phase determine the migration rates of sulfide 1 and sulfoxide 2 over the supported peroxide. The results elucidate the impact of surface phenomena on the course of chemical …
Pyrrolo[3,4-e][1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine and pyrrolo[3,4-d] [1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine. New tricyclic ring systems of biological interest
2000
Derivatives of the new ring system pyrrolo[3,4-e][1,2,3] triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine 6 were prepared in high yields in one step by reaction of 3-azidopyrrole 3 and substituted acetonitriles. Compound 6b rearranged, upon heating in dimethyl sulfoxide in the presence of water, to pyrrolo[3,4-d][1,2,3]triazolo-[1,5-a]pyrimidine 7.

The sequential treatment of optically active sulfoxide (I) with fluorinated nitriles and alkyl propiolates affords (sulfinylmethyl)dihydropyridines of type (IV) as single diastereomers in most cases.
Oral glutathione increases hepatic glutathione and prevents acetaminophen toxicity
1990
Administration of oral glutathione (GSH) increases hepatic GSH levels in fasted rats, in mice treated with GSH depletors such as diethylmaleate and in mice treated with high doses of paracetamol. An increase in hepatic GSH levels after administration of oral GSH does not occur in animals treated with buthionine suphoximine, an inhibitor of GSH synthesis. Administration of oral GSH leads to an increase in the concentration of L-cysteine, a precursor of GSH, in portal blood plasma. Oral administration of L-methio-nine to fasted rats produced a significant decrease of hepatic ATP, but not in fed rats. Administration of N-acetyl-cysteine or GSH did not affect the hepatic ATP levels. The results…
