Novel silylium ions with N-heterocyclic imines were successfully synthesized. The reaction of trimethylsilyl imidazolin-2-imine Me₃SiNIPr (NIPr = bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-imidazolin-2-imino) with B(C₆F₅)₃ leads to dimeric imino-substituted silylium ions through a methyl group abstraction on the silicon atom. Meanwhile, the intermolecular imino-coordinated silylium ion is formed by using the l...

The title salt, (C(19)H(18)NO(2))(2)[Cu(2)Br(6)], was obtained from an attempt to synthesize the copper(II) complex of 2,6-bis-(2-meth-oxy-phen-yl)pyridine (L) from a reaction between CuBr(2) and one equivalent of L in CH(2)Cl(2) at room temperature. The resulting compound is the salt of the 2,6-bis-(2-meth-oxy-phen-yl)pyridinium cation and 0.5 equivalents of a hexa-bromido-dicuprate(II) dianio...

A series of 2,6-disubstituted pyridine derivatives were prepared from 2,6-diacetylpyridine or 2,6dicarbonyl pyridine dichloride as starting materials. Reaction of 2,6-diacetylpyridine 1 with hydroxylamine hydrochloride or different aromatic aldehydes afforded the corresponding 2,6-diacetylpyridine dioxime and 2,6-bis-[β -(2-thienyl)acryloyl]pyridine derivatives 2 and 3, respectively. Additional...

Antagonists of serotonin 6 (5-HT6) receptors have been reported to enhance cognition in animal models of learning, although this finding has not been universal. We have assessed the therapeutic potential of the specific 5-HT6 receptor antagonists 4-amino-N-(2,6-bis-methylamino-pyrimidin-4-yl)-benzenesulfonamide (Ro 04-6790) and 5-chloro-N-(4-methoxy-3-piperazin-1-yl-phenyl)-3-methyl-2-benzothio...

Using "chemically misacylated AMP" which is photogeneratable, tRNA can be enzymatically acylated with N-methylamino acids in an efficiency comparable to that of the corresponding natural aminoacylation process with amino acids.

2,2'-Disubstitutedamino-4-4'-bis-pyrimidines (3a-m) have been prepared by linking 2,4-dichloro-6-methyl-5-nitropyrimidine (1) with several diamines and subsequent reaction with suitable amines. Some of these compounds (3c and 3j) which were reduced catalitically, on treatment with nitrous acid, urea in pyridine, and boiling thionyl chloride gave the corresponding bistriazolopyrimidin (6), ...

The title complex, [Tb(2)(C(6)H(4)NO(2))(6)(H(2)O)(4)](n), was isolated under hydro-thermal conditions using the ligand pyridine-4-carb-oxy-lic acid (HL) and Tb(2)O(3). The deprotonated L(2-) ligands adopt bridging coordination modes. The central Tb(III) atom is bridged by L(2-) ligands, forming a polymeric chain parallel to the a axis. Supra-molecular O-H⋯N inter-actions link the chains, build...

Inhibition of the catalytic subunit of the heterodimeric methionine S-adenosyl transferase-2 (MAT2A) with fluorinated N,N-dialkylaminostilbenes (FIDAS agents) offers a potential avenue for the treatment of liver and colorectal cancers where upregulation of this enzyme occurs. A study of structure-activity relationships led to the identification of the most active compounds as those with (1) eit...

The twelve-connected metal-organic frameworks {[Ni(3)(OH)(L)(3)].n(solv)}(infinity) and {[Fe(3)(O)(L)(3)].n(solv)}(infinity) [LH(2) = pyridine-3,5-bis(phenyl-4-carboxylic acid)] have been prepared and characterised: these materials can be desolvated to form porous materials that show adsorption of H(2) up to 4.15 wt% at 77 K.
