The reaction of cobalt(II) nitrate with 5-amino-2,4,6-tri-iodo-isophthalic acid (ATPA) in pyridine solution leads to the formation of the title compound, {[Co(C(8)H(2)I(3)NO(4))(C(5)H(5)N)(3)(H(2)O)]·C(5)H(5)N}(n). The Co(2+) ion is six-coordinated by three N atoms, one water O atom and two O atoms from two ATPA ligands to form a distorted octa-hedral geometry. The two carboxyl-ate groups of AT...

Targeting protein kinases is a common approach for cancer treatment. In this study, series of novel terephthalic and isophthalic derivatives were constructed as potential type 2 kinase inhibitors adapting pharmacophore features approved anticancer drugs class. Inhibitory activity designed structures was studied in silico against various cancer-related compared with that known inhibitors. Obtain...

The seed coat serves as a multifunctional organ with a role in protection and for the supply of nutrients to the embryo sac during development. The composition of the legume seed coat differs from other seed tissues in many ways including its protein composition. An abundant 24 kDa protein (SC24) has been purified and identified from soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr) seed hulls. The corresponding...

Noncovalently introducing stereogenic information is a promising approach to embed chirality in achiral molecular systems. However, the interplay of the noncovalently introduced chirality with the intrinsic chirality of molecules or molecular aggregations has rarely been addressed. We report a competitive chiral expression of the noncovalent interaction-mediated chirality induction and the intr...

Synthesis and structural characterization of a new class of pincer type bicyclic diacyloxy- and diazaselenuranes is reported. The reaction of dimethyl 2-bromo-5-tert-butylisophthalate (28) with sodium benzeneselenolate affords the corresponding monoselenide, dimethyl 5-tert-butyl-2-(phenylselanyl)isophthalate (29). Reduction of 29 with LiAlH(4) provides 5-tert-butyl-2-(phenylselanyl)-1,3-phenyl...

A hydrothermal reaction of a mixture of cobalt salt, 5-nitro isophthalic acid and triazole (compound I), 3-aminotriazole (3-AT) (compound II) and 3,5-diaminotriazole (compound III) at 220 °C for a day resulted in the isolation of three different, but related, compounds containing cobalt clusters. The three-dimensional compounds have Co(5) (compound-I) and Co(4) (compound-II and compound-III) cl...

We report the preparation of thermally stable spherical sulfonated aramides nanoparticles and their copper(II) complexes. Metal chelation with copper ions furnished polymeric complexes in a 1 : 2 ratio with square planar geometries as judged by their IR, UV, electron spin resonance, and elemental analysis data. The direct-current electrical conductivities demonstrated the semiconducting nature ...

Poly(etherketoneketone) (PEKK) is a thermoplastic, part of the poly(aryletherketone) (PAEK) family polymers, with excellent mechanical performance and chemical resistance properties that make it an interesting candidate as matrix for high-performance composites. Developing thorough understanding material paramount in applications, case thermoplastics, crystallinity plays essential role. This re...

Protein kinase C (PKC) is a serine/threonine kinase belonging to the AGC family. PKC isoenzymes are activated by phospholipid-derived second messengers, transmit their signal by phosphorylating specific substrates and play a pivotal role in the regulation of various cell functions, including metabolism, growth, differentiation and apoptosis. Therefore they represent an interesting molecular tar...
