Fourteen triethylamine derivatives including the 2-(4-chlorophenylthio)triethylamine (CPTA) were all found to be effective in inducing the formation of lycopene in Marsh white seedless grapefruit (Citrus paradisi, Rutaceae); however, they differed in the degree of effectiveness. The structural feature necessary for inducer activity appeared to be the tertiary alkylamine. Compounds with an S ato...

The study of meteoritic organic compounds provides a unique window into the chemical inventory of the early Solar System and prebiotic chemistry that may have been important for the origin of life on Earth. Multiple families of organic compounds have been extracted from the Murchison meteorite, which is one of the most thoroughly studied carbonaceous chondrites. The amino acids extracted from M...

Superphanes, compounds in which the two benzene rings clamped parallel on top of each other by six bridges, have been attracting considerable interest because their structural beauty and symmetry. However, progress research superphane chemistry beyond has seriously hampered poor availability. Herein, we report facile scalable synthesis a collection superphanes with diversity unique photophysica...

Presented here are two novel open-framework cobalt sulfate-oxalates constructed from molecular and chain-like building blocks. The two compounds have different structures: an hcb-type layer with 20-ring windows and a mog-type framework with 12-ring channels. Amine molecules play dual roles in the two structures: as a chelating ligand and a charge-balancing agent.

Abstract: Highly convergent Synthesis of -aminophosphonates were most conveniently achieved using organophosphorus chemistry. Synthesis of -aminophosphonates were accomplished by three-component coupling of carbonyl, amine and hydrophosphoryl compounds. These aminophosphonates exhibited promising antimicrobial, antioxidant and anticancer activity. Some recent developments and applications to th...

A palladium-catalyzed three-component reaction of bis-(2-iodoaryl)carbodiimide, isocyanide, and amine gives rise to quinazolino[3,2-a]quinazolines and related compounds in good yields. Multi-bonds are formed in one pot through nucleophilic attack, isocyanide insertion, and C-N coupling during the reaction process.

An effective and eco friendly procedure under microwave irradiation, for synthesis of symmetrical disubstituted alkyl and aryl ureas from amine hydrochlorides using water as solvent medium has been developed. Based on molecular docking studies on HIV-1 gp120, synthesized compounds were evaluated for HIV-1 gp120 – CD4 binding inhibition and these molecules showed micro molar range (0.047 μM to 4...

We here report a 3.02-Mbp annotated draft assembly of the Lactobacillus casei 5b genome. The sequence of this biogenic amine-degrading dairy isolate may help identify the mechanisms involved in the catabolism of biogenic amines and perhaps shed light on ways to reduce the presence of these toxic compounds in food.

Wide range of quinazolinone biological properties including: antibacterial, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory activities encouraged us to synthesis some fused quinazolinone derivatives. Anthranilic acid was condensed with chloro acylchloride followed by dehydration to form the benzoxazinone intermediate; subsequent addition of an amine provided the fused quinazolinones. Deoxyvasicinone which wa...
