1,1,3,3-Tetra(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)propane-based energetic salts were synthesized in a simple and straightforward manner. The structures of these new salts were determined by (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, MS, and elemental analysis. All of these compounds showed good thermal stabilities above 180 °C, as confirmed by thermogravimetric-differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA) measur...

Sodium azide-crystal violet-agar and a modified blood-azide (MBA)-agar were used to isolate Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae from swine tissues. There was no significant difference in the number of isolations. However, 78% of the isolants from modified blood-azide medium required only 24 hr of incubation, whereas all of the isolants obtained on sodium azide-crystal violet medium required 48 hr.

A synthetic approach to the modification of drug Riluzole with pharmacologically active fragments (adamantane, carbazole, tetrahydrocarbazole, γ-carboline, and phenothiazine) was proposed, which is based on copper-catalyzed alkyne-azide 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition azide-containing pharmacophores alkyne-containing derivatives Riluzole.

We have applied the electron-diffraction method of studying the structure of gas molecules, developed by Mark and Wierl and briefly described by us in a recent paper,' in the determination of the atomic configuration and interatomic distances in methyl azide and carbon suboxide molecules. The results of the investigation are given in the following paragraphs, together with a discussion of the i...

1. The initial rapid phase of ATP hydrolysis by bovine heart submitochondrial particles or by soluble F1-ATPase is insensitive to anion activation (sulphite) or inhibition (azide). 2. The second slow phase of ATP hydrolysis is hyperbolically inhibited by azide (Ki approximately 10(-5) M); the inosine triphosphatase activity of submitochondrial particles or F1-ATPase is insensitive to azide or s...

Azide ion is an excellent vibrational probe for studying ion-ion and ion-dipole interactions in solutions because its frequency is sensitively dependent on its local environments. When azide ion forms contact ion pairs with cations in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), free azide ion and contact ion pairs are spectrally well distinguished in FTIR spectra. Here, we investigated vibrational population rel...
