چکیده
The title compound, C(9)H(8)N(2)O, was prepared from o-xylene by nitration, oxidation, hydrolysis, reduction, chlorination and cyanation. There are two mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit with a dihedral angle of 20.15 (7)° between their aromatic rings.

Subunit-specific interactions of cyanide with the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor.
Cyanide can potentiate N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor-mediated physiological responses in neurons. Here we show that this phenomenon may be attributable to a subunit-specific chemical modification of the receptor directly by the toxin. N-Methyl-D-aspartate (30 microM)-induced whole cell responses in mature (22-29 days in vitro) rat cortical neurons were potentiated nearly 2-fold by a 3-5-min tre...
متن کاملExperimental and theoretical study of the [3 + 2] cycloaddition of carbonyl ylides with alkynes.
The [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction between carbonyl ylides generated from epoxides and alkynes (phenylacetylene, methyl propiolate, methyl but-2-ynoate and methyl 3-phenylpropiolate) to give substituted 2,5-dihydrofurans was investigated. The effect of indium(III) chloride on the outcome of the reaction was studied in the case of phenylacetylene and methyl propiolate. The thermal reaction betwe...
متن کاملContribution of artifacts to N-methylated piperazine cyanide adduct formation in vitro from N-alkyl piperazine analogs.
In the liver microsome cyanide (CN)-trapping assays, piperazine-containing compounds formed significant N-methyl piperazine CN adducts. Two pathways for the N-methyl piperazine CN adduct formation were proposed: 1) The α-carbon in the N-methyl piperazine is oxidized to form a reactive iminium ion that can react with cyanide ion; 2) N-dealkylation occurs followed by condensation with formaldehyd...
متن کامل4-Methyl-2-oxopentanoate oxidation by rat skeletal-muscle mitochondria.
1. Oxidative decarboxylation of 4-methyl-2-oxopentanoate (2-oxoisocaproate) by mitochondria of rat skeletal muscle showed biphasic kinetics. Two apparent Km values of 9.1 micronM and 0.78 mM were established. In broken mitochondria the rate of oxidation was lower and only the higher apparent Km value was found. 2. Isovalerylcarnitine inhibited 4-methyl-2-oxopentanoate oxidation in the presence ...
متن کاملOn the interaction of methyl azide (CH3N3) ices with ionizing radiation: formation of methanimine (CH2NH), hydrogen cyanide (HCN), and hydrogen isocyanide (HNC).
Methyl azide (CH(3)N(3)) might be a potential precursor in the synthesis of prebiotic molecules via nonequilibrium reactions on interstellar ices initiated by energetic galactic cosmic rays (GCR) and photons. Here, we investigate the effects of energetic electrons as formed in the track of cosmic ray particles and 193 nm photons with solid methyl azide at 10 K and the inherent formation of meth...
