In the crystal structure of the title ketoamine, C(19)H(29)NO, the bond lengths from the N atom through the alkene group to the ketone O atom show the presence of an extensively delocalized π-system. The dihedral angle between the plane of the phenyl ring and that of the alkene component is 63.45 (7)° due to steric hindrance exerted by the tert-butyl groups. The mol-ecule has a Z-configured alk...

seen with noradrenaline, whereas dopamine had no effect. In all experiments endogenous ketone-body production was unchanged. We have therefore shown a small effect with adrenaline at supraphysiological concentrations on hepatic ketone-body production in both fed and 48h-starved rats. No real effect of noradrenaline or dopamine could be demonstrated, although only a small number of preparations ...

The highly efficient glycolytic enzyme, triosephosphate isomerase, is expected to differentially stabilize the proposed stable reaction species: ketone, aldehyde, and enediol(ate). The identity and steady-state populations of the chemical entities bound to triosephosphate isomerase have been probed by using solid- and solution-state NMR. The 13C-enriched ketone substrate, dihydroxyacetone phosp...

Ketosis induced by starvation or feeding a ketogenic diet has widespread and often contradictory effects due to the simultaneous elevation of both ketone bodies and free fatty acids. The elevation of ketone bodies increases the energy of ATP hydrolysis by reducing the mitochondrial NAD couple and oxidizing the coenzyme Q couple, thus increasing the redox span between site I and site II. In cont...

Sequential alterations of body weights as well as total lipids, triglycerides, cholesterol and ketone body levels in the blood of Protopterus annectens during twelve month duration of aestivation were investigated. The results revealed that after the first trimester of dormancy, there was significant body weight reduction (p < 0.05) coupled with significant hypolipodaemia, hypotriacylgly-cerola...

High molecular weight aromatic poly(ether ketone ketone)s were synthesized by the Friedel-Crafts polyacylation condensation of isoand terephthaloyl chlorides with diphenyl ether, 1,4and 1,3-bis(4phenoxybenzoyl)benzenes. Depending on the monomers used for polycondensation, polyketones of regular structure with different iso-/tereisomer repeating unit ratio (100/0, 50/50, 0/100) in the main chain...

In this researchsaccharomyces cerevisiae (baker’s yeast) was used as a cheap, readily accessible, selective, efficient, and green bio-catalyst in a chemo selective reduction of carbonyl group to hydroxyl group. In this green procedure three substrates e.g. (3-(3-nitrophenyl)aziridin-2-yl)-1-phenyl-methanone, pyruvate ester, and 2-acetyl-γ-butyrolactone were r...
