Objective(s): Chalcones and their rigid analogues represent an important class of small molecules having anticancer activities. Therefore, in this study the synthesis and cytotoxic activity of new 3-benzylidenchroman-4-ones were described as rigid chalcone analogues.   Materials and Methods: The reaction of resorcinol with 3-chloropropionic acid in the presence of CF3SO3H was a...

Considering multiple reports on cytotoxic activity of the Artemisia genus and its phytochemicals, in the current study A. armeniaca Lam. and the three components isolated from the plant were subjected to cytotoxic studies. Analytical fractionation of A. armeniaca aerial parts for the first time was directed to the isolation of 7-hydroxy-8-(4-hydroxy-3-methylbutoxy) comarin (armenin), 8-hydroxy-...

17a-hydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one (17aP) hormone is a precursor of other steroid hormones and radioimmunoassay has already been used to measure it, but a simple and rapid "Enzyme Linked Immunosorbant Assay" (ELISA) is described and validated here. A general procedure for prepara-tion of the acetylcholinesterase labelled steroid is described, which is applicable to any steroid. Use of acetyl...

microporous hydroxy-sodalite zeolite membranes with different morphologies were synthesized via secondary growth technique with vacuum seeding on tubular α-al2o3 supports at two different synthesis conditions (i.e. two different routes). microstructures of the synthesized membranes were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscope (sem) and single gas permeation using ...

The hydroxycarboxylic acid family of receptors (ENSFM00500000271913, nomenclature as agreed by the NC-IUPHAR Subcommittee on Hydroxycarboxylic [36, 12]) respond to organic acids, including endogenous hydroxy carboxylic acids 3-hydroxy butyric and L-lactic acid, well lipid lowering agents nicotinic (niacin), acipimox acifran [53, 60, 65]. These were provisionally described receptors, although sh...

We report an efficient method to prepare polysubstituted 3-hydroxypyridines from amino acids, propargyl alcohols, and arylboronic acids. The process involves Pd(0)-catalyzed anti-selective arylative cyclizations of N-propargyl-N-tosyl-aminoaldehydes with acids (“anti-Wacker”-type cyclization), oxidation the resulting 5-substituted-3-hydroxy-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridines 3-oxo derivatives, elimina...
