In previous studies, it was established that chitosan and its quaternized derivatives are potent enhancers of hydrophilic compounds absorption across intestinal epithelia. The aim of this study was to evaluate the application of a new quaternized chitosan, triethyl chitosan (TEC), in pharmaceutical approaches. TEC was synthesized by a one step process via a 2(2) factorial design to optimize the...

The title compound, (C(6)H(16)N)[Fe(3)(CH(3)CO(2))(8)O(H(2)O)]·C(7)H(8), was serendipitously crystallized from a reaction of disilanol with iron(II) acetate. The trinuclear acetatoferrate(III) anion has a triethyl-ammonium cation as the counterion. The three Fe atoms lie on the vertices of a regular triangle and are octa-hedrally coordinated. The complete coordination of the anion includes shar...

In the title triangulo-triruthenium compound, [Ru(3)(C(18)H(12)Cl(3)P)(CO)(11)], one equatorial carbonyl group has been substituted by the monodentate phosphine ligand, leaving one equatorial and two axial carbonyl substituents on the Ru atom. The remaining two Ru atoms each carry two equatorial and two axial terminal carbonyl ligands. The three benzene rings make dihedral angles of 87.83 (17),...

It is well known that small amount Piperazine (PZ) enhance the CO2 absorption properties of tertiary amine aqueous solution. Because the tert-amine has the lower heat of reaction, the blended amine solution, tert-amine with PZ, is attractive for low energy absorbent. There are some reports about the investigation of the mechanism of the blended amine solution, however, there still a difficulty ...

A facile synthesis of functionally substituted 2-(hetero)aryl 1,3-benzazaphospholes via nickel- or palladium-catalyzed phosphonylation of N-acyl-2-bromoanilides 1a-k with triethyl phosphite is presented. Anilidophosphonates 2a-g with naphthoyl-, o-substituted phenyl, furoyl- or thenoyl groups allow direct reductive cyclization with LiAlH(4) to benzazaphospholes 3. The reaction of the o-bromoder...

In this study four quaternized derivatives of chitosan: trimethyl chitosan (TMC), dimethylethyl chitosan (DMEC), diethylmethyl chitosan (DEMC) and triethyl chitosan (TEC) with degree of substitution of approximately 50+/-5% were synthesized and their effect on the permeability of insulin across intestinal Caco-2 monolayers was studied and compared with chitosan both in free-soluble form and in ...

In the centrosymmetric mol-ecular structure of the title compound [Pt(2)(C(6)H(14)P)(2)H(2)(C(9)H(21)P)(2)], each Pt(II) atom is bound on one side to a phosphane ligand (PiPr(3)) and a hydrido ligand. On the other side, it is bound to two phosphanide ligands (μ-PiPr(2)), which engage a bridging position between the two Pt(II) atoms, forming a distorted square-planar structure motif. The Pt⋯Pt d...
