Novel scaffolds are of uttermost importance for the discovery of functional material. Three different heterocyclic scaffolds easily accessible from isocyanoacetaldehyde dimethylacetal 1 by multicomponent reaction (MCR) are described. They can be efficiently synthesized by a Ugi tetrazole multicomponent reaction of 1. We discuss the synthesis, 3D structures, and other physicochemical properties.

A novel, convenient and efficient approach to synthesis of pyrrole derivatives via the reaction of primary amines, alkyl propiolates and oxalyl chloride is described. The method offers several advantages including high yields of products and performing reaction in water as the solvent. 

cui nanoparticles as an expedient and recyclable catalyst for the synthesis of n-cyclohexyl-3-aryl-quinoxaline-2-amines in ethanol via a multi-component reaction are established. the products were separated from the catalyst simply by filtration. the catalyst could be recycled and reused for several times without noticeably decreasing the catalytic activity.

brønsted acidic ionic liquid triethylamine-bonded sulfonic acid {[et3n-so3h]cl} efficiently catalyzes the one-pot multi-component condensation of 2-naphthol with arylaldehydes and dimedone (5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione) under solvent-free conditions to afford 12-aryl-8,9,10,12-tetrahydrobenzo[a]xanthen-11-ones in high yields and relatively short reaction times.

BACKGROUND The t(14;18) translocation is a common finding in nodal follicular B cell lymphomas and diffuse large B cell lymphomas, and results in the overexpression of the antiapoptotic bcl2 protein. This chromosome rearrangement can be detected by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), with most breakpoints in the bcl2 gene occurring within either the major breakpoint region (mbr) or the minor c...

Colistin use has mostly been stopped in human medicine, due to its toxicity. However, nowadays, it still is used as a last-resort antibiotic treat hospital infections caused by multi-drug resistant Enterobacteriaceae. On the contrary, colistin veterinary medicine until recently. In this study, 210 fecal samples from pigs (n = 57), calves 152), and farmer 1) were collected farm where E. coli har...

The use of recombinant genetic technologies for population manipulation has mostly remained an abstract idea due to the lack of a suitable means to drive novel gene constructs to high frequency in populations. Recently Gantz and Bier showed that the use of CRISPR/Cas9 technology could provide an artificial drive mechanism, the so-called mutagenic chain reaction (MCR), which could lead to rapid ...

Background Due to increasing colistin usage, the dissemination of the colistin-resistant gene mcr-1 has been increasingly investigated. The aim of this study was to determine whether a traveler on a short-term international trip to a developing country could bring mcr-1 back to their home country. Materials and methods Thirty-four travel events from Japan to Vietnam encompassing 19 travelers ...

background and objectives: calamus rotang is used in traditional medicine. regarding the previous phytochemical screening of methanol extract of calamus rotang l. fruits (mcr), this study was performed to find out the antidiarrheal and hypoglycemic effects of the experimented extract in rodents. methods: castor oil induced diarrheal test was followed for screening anti-diarrheal effect of mcr. ...
