the o-nitrophenyl group at position 4 of dihydropyridine of nifedipine analogues was replaced with 2-alkylthio-1-benzyl-5-imidazolyl substituent. starting from dihydroxyacetone 2-alkythio-1-benzyl- 5-formyl imidazole (3) was first synthesized which was subsequently used in synthesizing symmetrical (5a-f) and asymmetrical (6a,b) dihydropyridines. primarily pharmacological studies of the title co...

In our previous work (Krizanová et al. 1989) we have described a protein from rabbit skeletal muscle cytosolic fraction, which is able to bind dihydropyridines and phenothiazines. In the present work conclusive evidence is provided for the ability of the phospholipid-reconstituted cytosolic protein to transport calcium. The calcium transport was stimulated by BAY K 8644 and inhibited in the pre...

The straightforward metathesis of 1-lithio-2-tbutyl-1,2-dihydropyridine using metal tert-butoxide (Na/K) has resulted in the first preparation and isolation of a series of heavier alkali metal dihydropyridines. By employing donors, TMEDA, PMDETA and THF, five new metallodihydropyridine compounds were isolated and fully characterised. Three distinct structural motifs have been observed; a dimer,...

v2o5/sio2 nanoparticles was prepared via an one-pot sol gel method from vanadyl- acetylacetonate and tetraethylorthosilicate in refluxing meoh, followed by calcination at 700 °c for 2 hours. the resultant nanoparticles was characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy (sem), transmission electron microscopy (tem), x-ray diffraction (xrd), tga and ftir techniques. rapid and efficient ar...

A series of novel 1,4-dihydro-2,6- dimethyl-3,5-pyridinedicarboxamides were synthesized and characterized by infrared absorption spectrum (IR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR), elemental analysis, ultraviolet spectrum (UV), and fluorescence techniques, together with X-ray single crystal diffraction. The results of density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional ...
