Levamisole (the laevorotatory isomer of tetramisole) is a new synthetic anthelmintic. A cure rate of 91% was obtained in a series of 111 ascariasis-infected children treated with a single oral dose of the drug. The failures, who were treated with the drug a second time one week later, were all cured. In a comparative study of levamisole and piperazine citrate in a series of 100 children with as...

In the title compound, C(26)H(43)N(7)O, each piperazine ring adopts a chair conformation. Two 1-methyl-piperazine rings bond to one Csp(3) of the pyrrole ring via the piperazine N atoms, while the third one links to the N atom of the indolin-2-one unit through a flexible ethyl group with an almost syn conformation. In the crystal, mol-ecules are connected through methyl-ene-carbonyl C-H⋯O inter...

seed oils of passiflora edulis, jatropa curucas, tinospora cordifolia, sesbania grandiflora and sapindus laurifolia were investigated for their antihelmintic property against pheritima pasthuma. three concentrations (10, 50 and 100 mg/ml) of each oil were studied in the bioassay, which involved the determination of time of paralysis and time of death of the worm. sesbania grandiflora showed the...

In the liver microsome cyanide (CN)-trapping assays, piperazinecontaining compounds formed significant N-methyl piperazine CN adducts. Two pathways for the N-methyl piperazine CN adduct formation were proposed: 1) The a-carbon in the N-methyl piperazine is oxidized to form a reactive iminium ion that can react with cyanide ion; 2) N-dealkylation occurs followed by condensation with formaldehyde...

In the title salt, C11H17N2O2S(+)·CF3COO(-), the cation is protonated at the secondary piperazine N atom. The dihedral angle between the benzene ring and the piperazine mean plane is 85.54 (10)°. In the crystal, cations and anions are connected by two types of strong N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into chains extending along [101]. The chains are further assembled into (10-1) layers via stacking inter-ac...

In the title adduct, C6H5NO3·0.5C4H10N2, the piperazine ring possesses inversion symmetry and has a chair conformation. Its mean plane makes a dihedral angle of 65.45 (7)° with the 4-nitro-phenol ring. In the crystal, the piperazine ring is linked to two 4-nitro-phenol mol-ecules via O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds. The mol-ecules are also linked via bifurcated N-H⋯(O,O) hydrogen bonds involving the NO2 O...

Metabolites of a G protein-coupled receptor modulator containing 1,2,4-oxadiazole and piperazine substructures were identified in vitro in human, rat, and dog hepatocyte incubates and in vivo in rat plasma, bile, urine, and feces by using 14C-radiolabeled parent compound. Exposure coverage for the major circulating metabolites in humans at steady state and in preclinical species used in drug sa...

An amidase acting on (R,S)-piperazine-2-tert-butylcarboxamide was purified from Pseudomonas azotoformans IAM 1603 and characterized. The enzyme acted S-stereoselectively on (R,S)-piperazine-2-tert-butylcarboxamide to yield (S)-piperazine-2-carboxylic acid. N-terminal and internal amino acid sequences of the enzyme were determined. The gene encoding the S-stereoselective piperazine-2-tert-butylc...
