nifedipine (nif), a 1,4-dihydropyridine calcium channel antagonist, undergoes photo-degradation to dehydro-nifedipine (dnif) upon exposure to ultraviolet (uv) light and to the nitroso analogue of dehydro-nifedipine (ndnif) when exposed to sunlight or some kinds of artificial lights. nif photo-degradation products do not contribute to clinical activity, thus prevention of photo-degradation of ni...

The π-conjugated tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) annulated ligand was introduced into a dicyanometallate for the first time, leading to the synthesis of the versatile redox-active dicyanideferrite building block [(n-Bu)4N][Fe(TTFbp)(CN)2] (H2TTFbp = N-(2-(4,5-bis(methylthio)-1,3-dithiol-2-ylidene)-5-(picolinamido) benzo[d][1,3]dithiol-6-yl) picol inamide). The incorporation of the new precursor with c...

A series of mono-cationic dinuclear have been synthesized using ((pyridi picolinamide (L2) ligands: [(h6-arene C5Me5)2M2(m-L1)Cl3]þ (M 1⁄4 Rh, 4 p-PrC6H4Me, 7; C6Me6, 8), [(h-C5Me isolated as their hexafluorophosphate IR spectroscopy. The solid state struc ray crystallographic studies. Interestin nitrogen atoms whereas the second terminal chloride ligands. Fascinatin both ruthenium centers havi...

transfusion-dependent patients such as those suffering from β-thalassaemia develop a fatal secondary haemosiderosis and consequently a selective iron chelator must be used to relieve such iron overload. 3- hydroxypyridin-4-ones are selective for iron(iii) under most biological conditions, but unlike desferrioxamine, are efficiently absorbed when administered orally. in this study, the synthesis...

objective: evaluating the effect of dentin conditioning with edta on microleakage of composite resin restorations, using two etch and rinse and two self-etch adhesives. materials and methods: one hundred and sixty extracted molars received class v cavity preparations right under the cej and were randomly divided into eight groups of 20, usingfour different adhesive systems. these adhesives incl...

The present study demonstrated that an omega (n)-3 fatty acid, ethyl-eicosapentaenoic acid (ethyl-EPA), supplemented diet significantly attenuated the stress/anxiety behavior of rats in the "open field" and elevated plus maze, which was induced by subchronic intracerebroventricular administration of proinflammatory cytokine interleukin (IL)-1beta. Ethyl-EPA also reduced the rise in serum cortic...

The title compound, C(29)H(35)N(3)O(4), was obtained by the reaction of (2S,4S,5S)-tert-butyl N-(4-amino-1-benzyl-3-hydr-oxy-5-phenyl-pent-yl)carbamate and picolinic acid using oxalyl chloride as a chlorinating reagent to activate the carboxyl group. In the crystal structure there are two mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit, which are aligned edge-to-face. In one mol-ecule, the pyridyl ring forms...

This study measured the possible cross-reactivity of hapten-specific IgG antibodies purified from the sera of rabbits sensitized to an albumin-acetaldehyde conjugate [N-ethyl-rabbit serum albumin (N-ethyl-RSA)] with acetaldehyde-phosphatidylethanolamine adducts. The N-ethyl-RSA was coupled to an Affigel-10 column to affinity purify the IgG (anti-N-ethyl-RSA IgG). Dioleoyl-phosphatidylethanolami...
