A greener approach one-pot reaction of (2-oxo-2-phenyl-ethyl sulfanyl)-acetic acid with chalcones in presence a base to afford an unexpected (5-Benzoyl-2-hydroxy-2,4-6-triphenyl-cyclohexyl) – phenyl-methanone product. The proceeds via sequential double Michael addition-aldol mediated three consecutive C-C bonds are formed one pot. procedure has short time, easy workup, and moderate yield produc...

The present study describes synthesis of a series of 2-phenyl benzimidazole-1-acetamide derivatives and their evaluation for anthelmintic activity using Indian adult earthworms, Pheretima posthuma. The structure of the title compounds was elucidated by elemental analysis and spectral data. The compounds 4-({[2-(4-nitrophenyl)-1H-benzimidazol-1-yl]acetyl}amino) benzoic acid (3a), N-ethyl-2-[2-(4...

BACKGROUND Urinary Ethyl glucuronide (EtG) and Ethyl sulfate (EtS) are established markers of alcohol conumption. Measurement of these markers in serum offers certain advantages. This outpatient department based study evaluated performance of serum Ethyl glucuronide (EtG) and Ethyl sulphate (EtS) as biomarkers of recent alcohol consumption in alcohol dependent subjects. It also evaluated effect...

Correlation between the photoinduced shape changes of diarylethene single crystals and their molecular packing in the crystals was studied. Crystals of 1,2-bis(5-ethyl-2-phenyl-4-thiazolyl)perfluorocyclopentene (3a) and 1,2-bis(2-isopropyl-5-phenyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene (4a) showed similar photoinduced deformation from square to lozenge as that of 1,2-bis- (2-ethyl-5-phenyl-3-thienyl)...

Volatile aroma-active esters are responsible for the fruity character of fermented alcoholic beverages such as beer and wine. Esters are produced by fermenting yeast cells in an enzyme-catalyzed intracellular reaction. In order to investigate and compare the roles of the known Saccharomyces cerevisiae alcohol acetyltransferases, Atf1p, Atf2p and Lg-Atf1p, in volatile ester production, the respe...

The chemokine receptor CXCR3 is involved in various inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, psoriasis, and allograft rejection in transplantation patients. The CXCR3 ligands CXCL9, CXCL10, and CXCL11 are expressed at sites of inflammation, and they attract CXCR3-bearing lymphocytes, thus contributing to the inflammatory process. In this study, we characterize fi...

A new series of 3-substituted (methyl, ethyl or phenyl)-3H-quinazolin-4-one derivatives (4a-l) were synthesized through condensation reaction of their potassium salts (3a-l) with methyl, ethyl and phenylisocyanate. The newly synthesized derivatives (4a-l) were evaluated for anticonvulsant activity. It was found that these compounds showed the highest anticonvulsant activity at low doses (50-100...

The title compound, C(16)H(18)N(2)O(2)S, was obtained as an unexpected product while attempting to form carbon-nitro-gen bonds by catalytic amidation. The mol-ecule displays an E conformation about the C=N double bond. The planes of the two aromatic rings in the mol-ecule form a dihedral angle of 47.06 (9)°.

In the title compound, C(15)H(17)NO(2)S, the aromatic rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 32.8 (1)°. The ethyl group and phenyl ring on the N atom adopt a staggered conformation with respect to the O atoms.
