MICELLAR CHROMATOGRAPHIC PROCEDURE WITH DIRECT INJECTION FOR THE DETERMINATION OF SULFONAMIDES IN MILK AND HONEY SAMPLES
2001
The capability of liquid chromatography with micellar mobile phases of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), of allowing the direct injection of biological fluids into reversed-phase columns, was applied to the determination of sulfonamides in milk and honey samples. The chromatographic behavior of a group of 15 sulfonamides was studied at pH 3.0 where the drugs showed a greater separation space. Acetonitrile was added to the mobile phase to decrease the retention of the most hydrophobic drugs and increase the efficiencies, which yielded a higher resolution. The samples were diluted with 0.10 M SDS to facilitate the solubilization of the matrix compounds and release the protein-bound drugs. The pro…
Synthetic and theoretical studies of novel ring closure and ring opening reactions
2006
Ring closure and ring opening reactions are in many cases useful synthetic procedures in organic chemistry. They allow the preparation of complex molecules with high stereoselectivity and good yields. Mechanistic and theoretical studies have been carried out on the transformation of 2-aminopyrimidines into imidazo[1,2-c]pyrimidines and guanidines, respectively, through ring closure and ring opening reactions, as well as the transamidation reactions through the ring closure and ring opening of guanidine derivatives, which constitute novel synthetic methods.

An ab initio conformational study on captopril
2003
Abstract Captopril can interact regio- and stereo-specifically with various functional groups present at the active site of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE). Since no X-ray structure of ACE is available, Captopril, as an ACE inhibitor may be used as a ‘molecular caliper’, to estimate upper and lower bound values for separation d, where the mercaptidic terminal group of the molecule is linked to the enzyme Zn2+ cofactor, while the carboxylate links via an hydrogen bond to the guanidine moiety of an arginine side chain. As the results of this Ab Initio study, the conformations of the dianionic form of the full captopril molecule are reported here.
The guanidinium group as a key part of water-soluble polymer carriers for siRNA complexation and protection against degradation.
2014
Here, the preparation of a novel block copolymer consisting of a statistical copolymer N-(2-hydroxypropyl) methacrylamide-s-N-(3-aminopropyl) methacrylamide and a short terminal 3-guanidinopropyl methacrylamide block is reported. This polymer structure forms neutral but water-soluble nanosized complexes with siRNA. The siRNA block copolymer complexes are first analyzed using agarose gel electrophoresis and their size is determined with fluorescence correlation spectroscopy. The protective properties of the polymer against RNA degradation are investigated by treating the siRNA block copolymer complexes with RNase V1. Heparin competition assays confirm the efficient release of the cargo in vi…
Cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes withN-cyano-N?-methyl-N?(2-[(5-methyl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)methylthio]ethyl)guanidine
1985
N-Cyano-N′-methyl-N″(2-[(5-methyl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)-methylthio] ethyl) guanidine cimetidine (CM), complexes with CoII, NiII and CuII are described. The compounds are of stoichiometry [M(CM)2]SO4 · nH2O [M = CoII, NiII or CuII; n = 3,3 or 4, respectively], [M(CM)2](ClO4)2 [M = CoII or NiII], [M(CM)2]Cl2 · nH2O [M=CoII, NiII or CuII; n = 1, 2, or 2, respectively] and [Cu(CM)SO4] · 2H2O. The electronic spectra of the compounds in solid state, magnetic susceptibilities and i.r. and e.p.r. spectra were studied. Octahedral environments are proposed for the complexes: [M(CM)2]SO4·nH2O, [M(CM)2](ClO4)2, [Ni(CM)2]Cl2 · 2H2O, [Cu(CM)2]Cl2 · 2H2O and [Cu(CM)SO4] · 2H2O and a tetrahedral structure for …
Self-assembly properties of the proteinaceous coat secreted by the ?slime? variant of Neurospora crassa
1989
The proteinaceous extracellular material (PEM) synthesized by the cells of the ‘slime” strain of Neurospora crassa (see Martinez et al. 1989) was solubilized by treatment with urea or guanidine. Removal of these chemicals by dialysis, caused reassembly of the solubilized proteins into material with the same microscopic appearance as the original PEM. Polypeptide patterns from both native and reassembled structures were identical. Dialysis-mediated reassembly of the solubilized proteins appeared to be dependent on both concentration of the soluble macromolecules and time. Gel chromatography of PEM solubilized with different agents revealed two discrete populations of complexes with molecular…

Unprecedented intermolecular transamidation reaction of N-carbamoylmethyl-N'-tosylguanidines.
2003
[reaction: see text] N-Carbamoylmethyl-N'-tosyl guanidine 2 reacts easily with primary alkylamines to afford substituted carboxamides 3. The reaction proceeds via a five-membered-ring intermediate 5, which could be isolated, and features a rare example of an intermolecular transamidation reaction under mild conditions.
Application of Molecular Topology to the Prediction of the Reaction Yield and Anticancer Activity of Imidazole and Guanidine Derivatives
2013
In this study molecular topology based QSAR has been applied to predict the reaction yield and anticancer activity of 18 imidazole and guanidine derivatives. Four properties were evaluated, namely reaction yield, anti prostatic-cancer activity, anti breast-cancer activity and anti lung-cancer activity. The four models have been validated by both internal and cross validation, and also by randomness tests. The results obtained are in full agreement with the experimental results and confirm the precision, accuracy and robustness of the method followed. After carrying out a virtual screening upon such models, new imidazole and guanidine derivatives with potential anticancer activity are propos…
