Cypermethrin a widely used insecticide of Pyrethroids (type II) group, was administered in mice at two dose levels (1/10 of LD50 i.e. 2.5 mg/kg and 1/5 of LD50 i.e. 5.0 mg/kg) and pharmacodynamic interactions of insecticide were studied with centrally acting drugs viz. pentobarbital sodium, amphetamine, pentylenetetrazole, acepromazine and analgin. Cypermethrin pretreatment potentiated the acti...

Cyclization and chlorination of 2-amino-5-benzyl-4, 5, 6, 7-tetrahydro hydro thieno [3, 2c] pyridine-3carboxamide yielded (3 a-b). Reaction with different substituted pyridines of [3 a-b] yielded 4a (1-4) and 4b (1-2). However reaction of 3a with different substituted 2-amino phenols yielded 4a (5-6). Further 3a yields 4a (7) & 4a (8) from different substituents like o-phenylene diamine and 4-c...

In higher plants, cell-to-cell polar auxin transport (PAT) of the phytohormone auxin, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), generates maxima and minima that direct growth and development. Although IAA is present in all plant phyla, PAT has only been detected in land plants, the earliest being the Bryophytes. Charophyta, a group of freshwater green algae, are among the first multicellular algae with a lan...

PURPOSE We report here the antimycobacterial activity of some already synthesized tetrazole derivatives containing tetrazole against Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain H37Rv. METHODS In vitro evaluation of the antitubercular activity was carried out within the Tuberculosis Antimicrobial Acquisition & Coordinating Facility (TAACF) screening program for the discovery of novel drugs for the treat...

Between March 1, 1980 and December 31, 1984, 393 orthotopic liver transplantations (OLT) were performed in 313 consecutive recipients. Technical complications were responsible for a substantial morbidity (41/393 allograft loss--10.4%) and mortality (26/313 patient loss--8.3%). Failure of the biliary tract reconstruction, mainly expressed as leakage and obstruction, is the most frequent complica...

A series of molybdenum(VI) oxide-organic solids were prepared by hydrothermal reactions employing N-donor tectons, which combine two 1,2,4-triazol-4-yl sites separated by representative aliphatic spacers (ethylene, tr(2)eth; 1,3-propylene, tr(2)pr; trans-1,4-cyclohexanediyl, tr(2)cy; diamondoid 1,3-adamantanediyl, tr(2)ad; 1,6- and 4,9-diamantanediyls, 1,6-tr(2)dia and 4,9-tr(2)dia) and heterof...

A series of 5-(4-alkoxyphenylalkyl)-1H-tetrazole derivatives, containing an oxazole-based group at the alkoxy moiety, was prepared and their antidiabetic effects were evaluated in two genetically obese and diabetic animal models, KKAy mice and Wistar fatty rats. Syntheses were performed by cyclization of the corresponding nitrites reacting with azide compounds. A large number of the 5-(4-alkoxy...

The mol-ecule of the title compound, C(4)H(8)N(6), assumes an approximately planar structure, the methyl C atoms and the C atom to which they are bonded being out of the mean tetrazole ring plane by 0.108 and 0.139, and 0.144 Å, respectively. π-π stacking between parallel tetra-zole rings [centroid-centroid distance = 3.4663 (11) Å] is observed in the crystal structure. Inter-molecular N-H⋯N hy...

An improved method of the synthesis of flavanones catalyzed by pyrrolidine and BF(3) ·Et(2) O has been developed and a lot of flavanones could be easily synthesized via this method. The asymmetric synthesis of flavanone from benzaldehyde and 5-fluoro-2-hydroxyacetophenone has been studied and flavanone with moderate enantioselectivity was obtained in one step.
