In this research, we synthesized oxazine and thiazine derivatives (3-6). These of chacone compounds (1 2) that from 4- hydroxyacetophenone aldehyde such as, 4-bromobenzaldehyde chlorobenzaldehyde. chalcone (1-2) reacted with urea to produce as 4-[4-amino-6-(4-subsutitedphenyl)-2H-1,3-oxazin-2-yl] phenol (3 4) thiourea 4-[4-amino-6-(4-subsutitedphenyl)-2H-1,3-thiazin-2-yl] (5 6). were characteri...

Flavanone was synthesized through the Claisen–Schmidt condensation between benzaldehyde and acetophenone and subsequent intramolecular Michael addition over aminopropyl-functionalized SBA-15 materials. The catalysts with well-ordered hexagonally arranged mesopores were synthesized by one-pot co-condensation of tetraethoxysilane and aminopropyltriethoxysilane using amphiphilic block copolymer as...

4-Hydroxyacetophenone monooxygenase from Pseudomonas fluorescens ACB was employed in the presence of a weak anion exchange resin to perform dynamic kinetic resolutions of racemic benzyl ketones with high conversions and good optical purities. Different parameters that affect to the efficiency of the enzymatic Baeyer-Villiger oxidation and racemisation were analyzed in order to optimize the acti...

Resonance Raman spectra were obtained for 2-nitrophenol in cyclohexane solution with excitation wavelengths in resonance with the charge-transfer (CT) proton transfer band absorption. These spectra indicate that the Franck-Condon region photodissociation dynamics have multidimensional character with motion along more than 15 normal modes: the nominal CCH bend+CC stretch nu(12) (1326 cm(-1)), th...

While the number of available recombinant Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenases (BVMOs) has grown significantly over the last few years, there is still the demand for other BVMOs to expand the biocatalytic diversity. Most BVMOs that have been described are dedicated to convert efficiently cyclohexanone and related cyclic aliphatic ketones. To cover a broader range of substrate types and enantio- and/o...

During indoleacetic acid (IAA) oxidation by horseradish peroxidase the water soluble model polyene, crocin, is bleached. IAA-oxidation and crocin bleaching are stimulated at acidic pH as well as by the monophenol p-hydroxyacetophenone. IAA oxidation and crocin bleaching are neither influenced by catalase or superoxide dismutase nor by different OH-radical scavengers, whereas both ascorbate and ...

Cu]-N-(2-hydroxyacetophenone)glycinate ([Cu]NHAG) was prepared using in house-made NHAG ligand and [Cu]CuCl2 produced via the Zn(p,x)Cu (180μA proton irradiation, 22MeV, 3.2h) and purified by a ion chromatography method. [Cu]NHAG radiochemical purity was >98% and >99.9% by RTLC and HPLC methods respectively after purification by SPE. [Cu]NHAG was administered into normal and tumor bearing mice ...

Acetophenones were screened for activity against positive phototaxis of Chlamydomonas cells, a process that requires co-ordinated flagellar motility. The structure-activity relationships of a series of acetophenones are reported, including acetophenones that affect flagellar motility and cell viability. Notably, 4-methoxyacetophenone, 3,4-dimethoxyacetophenone, and 4-hydroxyacetophenone induced...
