A fatal case of vaccinia necrosum treated with antivaccinial gamma globulin and N-methyl isatin beta-thiosemicarbazone (33T57) is described. Histological abnormalities found at necropsy included intranuclear as well as cytoplasmic inclusion bodies, absence of lymphoid germinal centres, grey hepatization, and bronchiolar epithelial hyperplasia. Virus titres were highest in the original skin lesi...

Present work describes the Synthesis of 3-(3-substituted-1H-indon-1-yl)-2-phenylquinoline-4carboxylic acid derivatives by Pfitzinger reaction of isatin with 2(1H-indol-1-yl)-1-phenyl ethanone and 1-phenyl-2-[-3-(substituted)-1-H-indole-1-yl] ethanone. The structures of all the compounds are established by elemental analysis, IR, H NMR and Mass spectral data. These compounds possess excellent an...

An efficient one-pot synthesis of functionalized 2-amino-4H-pyrans by a meglumine-catalyzed three-component reaction has been developed. A broad range of substrates including aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes, isatin derivatives, and acenaphthenequinone are condensed with enolizable C-H activated compounds and alkylmalonates to give the desired products in high to excellent yields. This met...

An effective and highly regio- and diastereoselective one-pot method for the synthesis of new polynuclear dispiroheterocyclic systems with five stereogenic centers (dispiro[imidazo[4,5-e]thiazolo[3,2-b]-1,2,4-triazine-6,3'-pyrrolidine-2',3''-indoles]) comprising pyrrolidinyloxindole and imidazo[4,5-e]thiazolo[3,2-b]-1,2,4-triazine moieties has been developed. The method relies on a 1,3-dipolar ...

This article presents the synthesis of new derivatives of spirooxindole-spiropiperidinone- pyrrolidines 6a-j and spirooxindole-spiropiperidinone-pyrrolizines 8a-j, through a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of azomethineylides generated from isatin, sarcosine, and l-proline, through a decarboxylative route with dipolarophile 4a-j. All of the newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for thei...

The asymmetric Neber reaction of 3-O-sulfonyl ketoxime, in situ generated from isatin ketoxime and sulfonyl chloride, for the synthesis of chiral spirocyclic oxindole compounds is reported. With the developed protocol, a range of chiral spirooxindole 2H-azirines could be obtained in good to excellent yields and up to a 92 : 8 enantiomeric ratio by using (DHQD)2PHAL as the catalyst. This methodo...

Multiple forms of reductases for several drug ketones were isolated from rabbit liver, but their interrelationship and physiologic roles remain unknown. We isolated cDNAs for four aldo-keto reductases (AKR1C30, AKR1C31, AKR1C32, and AKR1C33), which share high amino acid sequence identity with the partial sequences of two rabbit naloxone reductases. The four recombinant enzymes reduced a variety...

The reaction between 5-nitro-isatin and phenyl-hydrazine in acidic ethanol yields the title compound, C14H10N4O3, whose mol-ecular structure deviates slightly from a planar geometry (r.m.s. deviation = 0.065 Å for the mean plane through all non-H atoms). An intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond is present, forming a ring of graph-set motif S(6). In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by N-H⋯O and ...

Most workers have found that oxindoles are inactive as auxins or as auxin antagonists. For example, Thimann (44) working with straight growth of Az'ena coleoptile cylinders anid Pisitm stem sectiolns, and with growth curvature of slit Pistni stem sections, found the following 6 compounds to be without effect at concentraticns up to 30 mg/liter, both in the absence and presence of IAA at concent...
