The structure-directing role of a variety noncovalent interactions in the solid state pyrazolyl-thiazole derivatives has been analyzed energetically using DFT calculations and by means Hirshfeld surface analysis.

The design, synthesis, and evaluation of novel thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-yl hydrazone analogues as cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) inhibitors are described. In continuing our program aim to search for potent CDK4 inhibitors, the introduction of a thiazole group at the hydrazone part has led to marked enhancement of chemical stability. Furthermore, by focusing on the optimization at the C-4' pos...

1-Azafulvenium methides, generated from pyrrolo[1,2-c]thiazole-2,2-dioxides' thermal extrusion of sulfur dioxide, led to the synthesis of functionalized pyrroles. The intramolecular trapping of these transient 8pi 1,7-dipoles in pericyclic reactions, namely sigmatropic [1,8]H shifts and 1,7-electrocyclization, allowed the synthesis of N-vinylpyrroles and C-vinylpyrroles which, under flash vacuu...

One- and two-dimensional 1H NMR spectroscopy were used to characterize the binding of a homodimeric thiazole orange dye, 1,1'-(4,4,8,8-tetramethyl-4,8-diazaundecamethylene)-bis-4-(3 -methyl-2,3-dihydro-(benzo- 1,3-thiazole)-2-methylidene)-quinolinium tetraiodide (TOTO), to various double-stranded DNA oligonucleotides containing symmetric (5'-pyr-pyr-pu-pu-3')2 or (5'-pu-pu-pyr-pyr-3')2 sequence...

In recent years, the spread of drug-resistant strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae, as the most common causes of bacterial respiratory infections, threatens public health. Therefore, the use of new antimicrobial medicines to inhibit this pathogen is an urgent demand. In this research project, the inhibitory effects of thirty recently synthesized compounds including thiazole, thiazolidine, imidaz...

Photolysis of the pyrimidine component of vitamin B1 by ultraviolet radiation has been reported in a recent paper by the present writers (1). It was shown that inactivation resulted not only from the breakdown of the pyrimidine ring structure but also from the loss or alteration of those side groups or radicals known to be essential for the biological functioning of the vitamin. Nevertheless, o...

The unexpected interaction between thiazole orange (TO) and calix[4]arene sulfonate is reported herein. H-Aggregates of TO switching on their fluorescence in solution are observed. Surprisingly, fluorescence enhancement is not linked to host-guest inclusion, but rather to calix[4]arene sulfonate serving as a template for several TO molecules.

We have characterized odorant-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity in isolated chemosensory cilia prepared from frog and rat olfactory epithelium. Cilia from both species exhibit high levels of adenylate cyclase activity. Basal activity is stimulated approximately 2-fold by GTP and approximately 5-fold by guanosine 5'-(3-O-thio)triphosphate and forskolin. Odorants augment enzyme activity 30-65...
