Phenols and aryl thiols are fundamental building blocks in organic synthesis and final products with interesting biological activities. Over the past decades, substantial progress has been made in transition-metal-catalyzed coupling reactions, which resulted in the emergence of new methods for the synthesis of phenols and aryl thiols. Aryl halides have been extensively studied as substrates for...

The effect of phenols containing different electron-withdrawing substituents on the potentiometric responses of several liquid PVC membranes containing the complex trioctylmethylammonium-nitrate, TOMA(+)NO(3)(-), is analyzed. The results make it possible to separate these phenols into two groups; those phenols containing electron-releasing groups, which produce almost Nernstian slopes, and thos...

The antagonism ability of the15 species fungi associated with rot roots disease against the pathogen R.solani showed growth fungus T. harzianumwas faster than R.s which cover all area perti plate antagomism degree 1.33. A field experiment was carried out in 2011/2012 Agriculture College /Tikrit University for test induction a systemic resistance by harzianumagainst root caused three cultivars b...

Fusarium fujikuroi, the causal agent of foot rot disease, infects all parts rice, causing serious yield losses in different world. In order to understand basis disease tolerance, various biochemical and anatomical traits ten days old healthy infected basmati non-basmati rice seedlings were compared. Total soluble sugar content was higher seedlings, while total phenols, orthodihydroxy phenols pr...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study, is to investigate the in vitro antioxidant activity, the total phenols content, the flavonoids content and the antiproliferative activity of methanolic extracts of the plants: Krameria erecta, Struthanthus palmeri, Phoradendron californicum, Senna covesii and Stegnosperma halimifolium, used by different ethnic groups from northwestern Mexico in the treatment an...

A series of p- and m-substituted phenols were examined for their effect on the cyclooxygenase activity of prostaglandin H synthase in 0.1 M phosphate buffer at pH 8.0 and 25.0 +/- 0.1 degrees C. A biphasic response was observed. At low concentrations phenols stimulate, but at higher concentrations inhibit, cyclooxygenase activity. Both enhancement and inhibition are increased by phenolic substi...

Electrochemical oxidation of some p-substituted phenols (p-nitrophenol, p-hydroxybenzaldehyde, phenol, p-cresol, and p-methoxyphenol) with electron-donating and -withdrawing substituents was studied to reveal the relationship between the structure and the electrochemical reactivity of p-substituted phenols using a boron-doped diamond electrode by voltammetry and bulk electrolysis. Voltammetric ...

the kinetics of iodination of the phenol and substituted phenols using pyridiniumiodochloride in methanol has been studied under varying conditions. the rates show first orderkinetics each in pyridinium iodochloride and phenols. the rates of reactions are measured atdifferent temperature and activation parameters for all phenols computed. hammett plot is foundto be valid and the corrletion betw...
