Pharmacological properties of some 3-substituted indole derivatives, a concise overview

Indole is a nitrogen-containing heterocycle. It is a very important motif in agriculture and pharmacy. Many compounds containing indole moiety has been isolated form nature. It is also an important part in natural alkaloids. Tryptophan is an amino acid which posses indole. 3-Sustituted indoles are the main group of its derivatives. Because the wide-spread application of 3-substituted indolic co...

3-Nitro, 1-Amino Guanidine and 5-Hydrazino-1H-Tetrazole Derivatives as New Energetic Materials

The synthesis of 3-amino-1-nitroguanidine (3-ANQ) and 5-hydrazino tetrazole (5-HT) derivatives as new energetic materials are described. Reaction of 3-ANQ with triethyl orthoformate leads to the formation of 3-nitramino triazole while no reaction was observed whit 5-HT. Addition of NaN3 to a mixture of 3-ANQ and triethyl orthoformate, afforded 1-nitroguanidyl tetrazole in excelle...

A General Procedure for Mild and Rapid Reduction of Aliphatic and Aromatic Nitro Compounds Using Ammonium Formate as a Catalytic Hydrogen Transfer Agent

Selective and rapid reductLon of nitro compounds is still area of considerable synthetic interestl, particularly when a molecule has several other reducible moieties. Numerous new reagents*-l4 have been developed for reduction of aromatic nitro compounds, however little attention has been paid to the reduction of aliphatic nitro compound&ry,S, which are traditionally reduced by high pressure ca...

Preconcentration of Trace Vanadium with the Ion Pair of 2-Nitroso-1-Naphthol-4-Sulfonic Acid and Tetradecyldimethylbenzylammonium Chloride Onto Microcrystaline Naphthalene and Determination by Derivative Spectrophotometry

Vanadium is quantitatively retained on 2-nitroso-1-naphhthol-4-sulfonic acid tetradecyldimethlbenzyammonium chloride onto microcrystalline naphthalene in the pH range of 3.0-4.0 from a large volume of aqueous solutions of various alloys and synthetic samples. After filtration, the solid mass consisting of the vanadium complex and naphthalene was dissolved with 5.0 mL of dimethylformamide an...
