Acetic Acid an Antidote to Carbolic Acid

Silt,?I have the honour to ask you to publish tho followingnote on the uso of acetic acid as an antidote to carbolic acid. Once when I was cleaning a wound I had to dip my hand over and over again into carbolic lotion (1 in 40), and L soon found a painful sensation in my arm from fingers to shoulder joint. I then found that I had a scratch on my finger. [ applied some acetic acid on a piece of ...

Acetic acid

A direct access to bioactive fused N-heterocyclic acetic acid derivatives.

A Cu-catalyzed new sequence involving the Ullmann type intermolecular C-C followed by an intramolecular C-N coupling and then intramolecular aza-Michael type addition (and oxidation) in a single pot afforded various fused N-heterocyclic acetic acid derivatives as inhibitors of PDE4.

Derivatives of xanthic acid are novel antioxidants: application to synaptosomes.

Xanthic acids have long been known to act as reducing agents. Recently, D609, a tricyclodecanol derivative of xanthic acid, has been reported to have anti-apoptotic and anti-inflammatory properties that are attributed to specific inhibition of phosphatidyl choline phospholipase C (PC-PLC). However, because oxidative stress is involved in both of these cellular responses, the possibility that xa...
