Synthesis of Some Nitrogen Functional Derivatives of 5-substituted-6-azauracil as Biologically Active Compounds

3-Arylhydrazono-2,4-dioxo-4-phenylbutanoates have been prepared by the coupling of benzoylpyruvate with aryldiazonium chlorides. Reactions of the 3-arylhydrazono-2,4- dioxo-4-phenylbutanoates with 1-aminoguanidine, semicarbazide, and thiosemicarbazide gave 5-substituted 2-imino-6-azauracil (3a), 6-azauracil (3b), and 2-thio-6-azauracil (3c), respectively. The analytical data of these compounds ...

Effect of Cinnamon and its Biologically Active Compounds on the Components and Symptoms of Metabolic Syndrome

Oligonucleotides and polynucleotides as biologically active compounds.

Nucleic acids are involved in the most important processes occurring in living cells and possess an enormous potential for specific interactions with different biopolymers. Specificity of recognition of DNA and RNA species by complementary nucleic acids is unique in the world of biopolymers. A great number of the proteins involved in processes of replication, transcription, and translation are ...
