The compounds, 2-(methylsulfonyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-9H-pyrido[3,4-b]indole-3-carboxylic acid (DM3), 2-(phenylsulfonyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-9H-pyrido[3,4-b]indole-3-carboxylic acid (DM(4)), and 2-(p-toluenesulfonyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-9H-pyrido[3,4-b]indole-3-carboxylic acid (DM(5)) were synthesized by coupling of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-9H-pyrido[3,4-b]indole-3-carboxylic acid (DM(2)) with methanesu...

Optical resolution of racemic 5-oxo-1-phenyl-pyrazolidine-3-carboxylic acid 2 with L-amino acid methyl ester via the diastereomers formation was investigated. Treatment of racemic 5-oxo-1-phenylpyrazolidine-3-carboxylic acid 2 with L-valine methyl ester gave diastereomers with a total yield of 86%. The diastereomeric dipeptides can be easily separated by flash column chromatography. Acidic clea...

Ethyl 2,3-diendo-3-aminobicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-ene-2-carboxylate ((±)-1) was resolved with O,O'-dibenzoyltartaric acid via diastereomeric salt formation. The efficient synthesis of the enantiomers of 2,3-diendo-3-aminobicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-ene-2-carboxylic acid ((+)-7 and (-)-7), 3-endo-aminobicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-ene-2-exo-carboxylic acid ((+)-5 and (-)-5), cis- and trans-3-aminobicyclo[2.2.2]octane-2...

The condensation of substituted pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid chlorides with ring-substituted anilines yielded five substituted pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid amides. Thesynthesis, and analytical, lipophilicity and biological data of the newly synthesizedcompounds are presented in this paper. The photosynthesis inhibition, antialgal activityand the effect of a series of pyrazine derivatives as abiotic...

Rapid and highly efficient synthesis of 2- or 2,5-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazoles by the condensation of aryl carboxylic acid hydrazides and orthoesters can be achieved under microwave irradiation using an unmodified commercial over in unsealed vessels.

Two quantitative pKa prediction models for aliphatic carboxylic acids and for alcohols were developed by multiple linear-regression (MLR) analysis with empirical atomic descriptors. The acid and alcohol molecules were described by a set of five and four atomic descriptors, respectively. For the pKa model of 1122 aliphatic carboxylic acids, the squared correlation coefficient is 0.813 with a sta...
