4-n- prophyl- 1,2,4- triazoline-3-5- dione was synthesized from n-propylisocyanate and ethylhydrazine carboxylate in several steps. the title compound was isolated as pink crystals in high yield and purity. this compound was fully characterized by ir and h-nmr spectroscopy

We synthesized and studied the polymeric compound {[Cu2(µ4-EDTA)(Him)2] 2H2O}n (1). The single-crystal structure is reported along with an in depth characterization of its thermal stability (TGA), spectral properties (FT-IR, Vis-UV RSE), magnetic behavior. crystal consists infinite 2D-networks built by centrosymmetric dinuclear motifs, constructed means a bridging anti,syn-carboxylate group fro...

In the search of molecules that can serve as leads in the design of a new drug for the treatment of Chagas' disease, we found that some brevifolin carboxylate derivatives isolated from Geranium bellum Rose, inactivate triosephosphate isomerase from Trypanosoma cruzi (TcTIM) in a species-specific manner. After spectroscopic characterization, these compounds were identified as methylbrevifolin ca...

Diastereomers of y-fluoroglutamate tentatively assigned the D configuration at the or-carbon are substrates for Dglutamate cyclase purified from mouse liver. In order to elucidate properties of these potentially useful analogues of glutamate as well as to gain some insight into the mechanism of the enzyme, the kinetics and thermodynamics of the reaction of these analogues have been compared to ...

The synthesis of two bis-amidinium calixarenes 3 and 4 has been achieved. Compounds 3 and 4 selfassemble with carboxylate salts via amidinium-carboxylate salt bridges producing ditopic receptor species, © 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

The nitro group of methyl 3-nitropyridine-4-carboxylate (1) has successfully been replaced by fluoride anion via nucleophilic aromatic substitution to give the 3-fluoro- pyridine-4-carboxylate 2.

L-Azetidine-2-carboxylate hydrolase from Pseudomonas sp. strain A2C catalyzes a ring-opening reaction that detoxifies L-azetidine-2-carboxylate, an analogue of L-proline. Recombinant L-azetidine-2-carboxylate hydrolase was overexpressed, purified and crystallized using polyethylene glycol and magnesium acetate as precipitants. The needle-shaped crystal belonged to space group P2(1), with unit-c...

The surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectra of maleic (cis; 2-butaneoic acid) and fumaric (trans; 2-butaneoic acid) acids adsorbed on aqueous silver sol particles are reported. These two acids form two groups of isomers which differ only in the relative positions of the two carboxylate groups. The photochemistry of maleic and fumaric acids adsorbed on the surface of silver colloids...

A new dicopper(I) complex is reported that can be incorporated into extended architectures through multitopic carboxylate linkers; reversible carboxylate templation under pH control led to the formation of [2+2] and [3+3] metallomacrocycles.
