An improved domino/Knoevenagel-hetero-Diels-Alder reaction of two new aldehyde substrates; 7-olefinoxy-coumarin-8-carbaldehyde and 2-alkensulfanyl-quinoline-3-carbaldehyde, with pyrazolones was studied in ionic liquid triethylammonium acetate (TEAA), affording a series of pyrazolopyran annulated-pyrano-fused coumarins, and thiopyrano-fused quinolones. Besides acting as catalyst, since no additi...

The title compound, C27H43ClO6, is a derivative of urso-deoxy-cholic acid, in which the OH group at the 3-position is substituted by a chloro-meth-oxy-carbon-yloxy substituent and the carb-oxy-lic acid group at the 24-position is methyl-ated. The A and B rings are cis-fused, while all other rings are trans-fused. In the crystal, two adjacent mol-ecules located along the b-axis direction are int...

A new 1-hydrazinodiene (1) has been developed and utilized in Lewis acid catalyzed, intermolecular Diels-Alder reactions with various electron-deficient alkenes. The hydrazine can then be deprotected, and a molecule of methanesulfinic acid is eliminated to provide a putative diazene intermediate (4), which then spontaneously undergoes a suprafacial 1,5-sigmatropic shift to yield stereochemicall...

PURPOSE To compare the debonding/crack initiation strength (D/CIS) of a low-fusing pressable leucite-based glass ceramic (PC) fused to metal to a feldspathic porcelain (FP) fused to metal. MATERIALS & METHODS As per ISO 9693:1999, 40 rectangular metal specimens (25.0 mm x 0.5 mm x 3.0 mm) were prepared. Twenty of the specimens were cast in a base metal nickel-chromium alloy (BA), and 20 were ...

We report the formation of aliphatic organosulfates (OSs) in secondary organic aerosol (SOA) from the photooxidation of C10–C12 alkanes. The results complement those from our laboratories reporting the formation of OSs and sulfonates from gas-phase oxidation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Both studies strongly support the formation of OSs from the gas-phase oxidation of anthropogen...

Antifungal agents are causing different problems in the agriculture industry. Plants are using various defense mechanisms for resistance against fungal pathogens. Some examples of these mechanisms are making physical barriers, producing chemical components and pathogenesis-related proteins such as lipid transfer protein (LTP) and Osmotin which can inhibit the growth of fungi at micro-molar conc...

background: tumor response after multimodality treatment using combination of radiation, chemotherapeutic drugs and hyperthermia usually assessed by parameters such as tumor growth delay, volume doubling time and regression response. the study herein was conducted to investigate the usefulness of micronucleus assay for assessing the multimodality treatment. materials and methods: the induction ...
