Base catalyzed condensation of enaminoketones (3a,b) with malononitrile yields the respective 7-imino-5[2(substituted)prop-1-enyl]furochromene-6-carbonitriles (4a-d) according to the nature of base used. Compounds (3a, b) condense also with indan-1,3-diketone (5) to give α, β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds (6a) and (6b), respectively. Pyrrolidine-catalyzed condensation of visnaginone (2a) and k...

In the title compound, C(9)H(11)N(3)O, the benzene ring is disordered over two positions with refined occupancies of 0.922 (5) and 0.078 (5). The program PLATON [Spek (2009 ▶). Acta Cryst. D65, 148-155] recommends the solution in the space group C2/m with a = 7.3050 (3), b = 6.6745 (2), c = 18.3853 (6) Å and β = 96.986 (2)°. However, the large number of non-extinct reflections needed to be igno...

Acetophenone 2’,4’-dihydroxy semicarbazone (A24DHS) as a photometric reagent for the extractive spectrophotometric determination of Molybdenum (VI) is presented in this paper. The reagent A24DHS gave instantaneous and stable yellow colour with Molybdenum (VI) in the pH range 1.6 to 2.4. The system obeys Beer’s law in the concentration range of 1.0 μg/mL to 8.0 μg/mL at 370 nm. The Limit of Dete...

A series of substituted salicylaldehyde dibenzyl semicarbazones [RC6H3(OH)CH=N-NHCON(CH2Ph)2] and their copper(II) complexes were synthesized and characterized. The chloridocopper(II) complexes of the 4-OH and 5-OH substituted ligands (complexes 9 and 7) show modest affinity and good selectivity (over duplex DNA) for the quadruplex formed from the human telomeric (HTelo) DNA sequence. Substitut...

Abstract Gap junctions are integral membrane proteins that play a role in cell-to-cell communication. They coded by the functional genes called connexins chordates and innexins invertebrates. However, recently pannexins were also found mammalian genomes, which homologous to insect innexins. junction intercellular communication (GJIC) has different functions ranging from their ontogenesis transf...

We have used pharmacophore hybridization technique of drug design and designed a pharmacophore model 2-methylphenylsemicarbazone which is having hydrogen acceptor site, hydrogen donor site, lipophilic site etc using ligandscout-2.02 software. A series of 2-methylphenyl-semicarbazone was synthesized and evaluated for their antipyretic activity using boiled cow milk induced pyrexia in rabbits. Co...

Searching for prospective vanadium-based drugs for the treatment of Chagas disease, a new series of heteroleptic [V(IV)O(L-2H)(NN)] compounds was developed by including the lipophilic 3,4,7,8-tetramethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (tmp) NN ligand and seven tridentate salicylaldehyde semicarbazone derivatives (L1-L7). The compounds were characterized in the solid state and in solution. EPR spectroscopy...

EGA, 1, prevents the entry of multiple viruses and bacterial toxins into mammalian cells by inhibiting vesicular trafficking. The cellular target of 1 is unknown, and a structure-activity relationship study was conducted in order to develop a strategy for target identification. A compound with midnanomolar potency was identified (2), and three photoaffinity labels were synthesized (3-5). For th...

The general antibacterial action in vitro of a variety of furan derivatives substituted in the 5 position with a nitro group has been reported by Dodd and Stilhnan (1, 2). That the presence of the nitro group is essential was established by comparison of the activities with those of the corresponding non-nitrated derivatives. All the nitrofurans except those limited by insolubility exhibited a ...
