In the title compound, C14H14N2O5S, the mol-ecule exists in the enamine (C=C-NH) tautomeric form. The hydrazone fragment derived from the 3-acetyl-4-hy-droxy-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one moiety is approximately planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.1291 (11) Å for the N atom bound to the S atom of the benzensulfono-hydrazide group. The latter adopts a gauche conformation relative to the hydrazone N-...

In the present paper [VO(acac)2] reacts with an equimolar amount of tridentate dibasic ONO donor hydrazone ligand derived from the condensation of benzoyl hydrazine with either 2hydroxyacetophenone (H2L 1) or its para-substituted derivatives (H2L 2) (general abbreviation H2L), in the presence of excess amount of salicylaldehyde (Hsal) in methanol under aerobic conditions producing the mixed-lig...

Dynamic covalent chemistry uses reversible chemical reactions to set up an equilibrating network of molecules at thermodynamic equilibrium, which can adjust its composition in response to any agent capable of altering the free energy of the system. When the target is a biological macromolecule, such as a protein, the process corresponds to the protein directing the synthesis of its own best lig...

This noninvasive method for collection and analysis of a wide range of aldehydes and ketones in human breath may enable assessment of lipid peroxidation and metabolic status in vivo. Breath samples are drawn through silica cartridges impregnated with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine, which traps carbonyls as their hydrazone derivatives. The hydrazone derivatives are eluted from the cartridges with ac...

A series of indole-based aryl(aroyl)hydrazone analogs of antiplatelet indole-3-carboxaldehyde phenylhydrazone were synthesized by the Schiff base formation reaction and their antiplatelet activity was assessed using human platelet rich plasma. The platelet concentrate was obtained using a two-step centrifugation protocol and ADP, arachidonic acid and collagen were used as inducers of platelet a...

A new cyclen derivative L, bearing a methyl-chromeno-pyridinylidene hydrazone moiety, was synthesized and studied in MeOH, as potential fluorescent "OFF-on-ON" sensors for Zn(ii). Photophysical properties of this ligand being PET regulated, L was only weakly emissive in the absence of metal ions (OFF). L fluorescence was increased modestly upon addition of one equivalent of Zn(II), and further ...

Supramolecular gels comprised of low-molecular-weight gelators are generally regarded as mechanically weak and unable to support formation of free-standing structures, hence, their practical use with applied loads has been limited. Here, we reveal a technique for in situ generation of high tensile strength supramolecular hydrogels derived from low-molecular-weight gelators. By controlling the c...
