Amidines. VI. 1,3-N,N-acylotropic amidine rearrangement of N1-acyl derivatives of N1,N2-disubstituted amidine.

Antioxidant Activity of some Amidine Derivatives

Three amidines, N, N’-Diphénylbenzamidine (1), N-Cyclohexyl-N’-phényl-octamidine (2), N, N’diphényldodécamidine (3), were synthesized and investigated for their antioxidant activity using 2, 2-diphenyl-1picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging, ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) and β-carotene/linoleic acid assays. The results indicated that amidines tested possess good antioxidant activi...

Amidine Dications as Superelectrophiles

2-Dimethylalkylammonium pyridinium and 2-dimethylalkylammonium pyrimidinium ditriflate salts are very powerful methylating agents toward phosphorus (triphenylphosphine) and nitrogen (triethylamine) nucleophiles. In competition experiments with triethylamine as nucleophile, these N-methyl disalts are more reactive methylating agents than dimethyl sulfate. Reaction of the pyridinium dications wit...

Amidine: Structure, Reactivity and Complexation Behaviour

The present review discuss about the structure, reactivity of various amidines. The complexation behavior of amidine especially aryl benzamidine with different metal ions has been discussed. This review article is useful for inorganic and bioinorganic chemist.

Biophysical and transfection properties of DNA-DiC14-amidine complexes.

DiC14-amidine (N-t-butyl-N°-tetradecylaminopropionamidine) is a cationic lipid used as transfection agent in vitro [1] and as a vector for in vivo gene therapy applications. DiC14-amidine molecules assemble in a liposomal structure (transition temperature: 23C-critical micelle concentration: 10-7 M). Compared to other cationic lipids, diC14-amidine does not require a helper lipid. This property...
