The title compound, PNU-97018 [systemic name: 2-butyl-3,6,7,8,9,11-hexahydro-6,9-dimethyl-3-([2'-(2H-tetrazol-5-yl)[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-yl]methyl)-6,9-ethano-4H-imidazo[4,5-d]-pyridazino[1,2-a]pyridazin-4-one] is a newly developed angiotensin II receptor antagonist. The compound and its methanolate and ethanolate were characterized by X-ray crystallography and thermal analysis. The methanolate and...

The title compound, C(7)H(13)N(5), a tetrazole analogue of betaines, exists as a zwitterion, with the H atom of the tetrazole ring being transferred to the piperidine ring N atom. The tetrazole ring symmetry is close to C(2v), which suggests strong charge delocalization in the N-C-N fragment of the ring. There are classical hydrogen bonds in the structure which are responsible for the formation...

BACKGROUND The way families negotiate diagnosis and early treatment for pediatric cancer sets the stage for their adaptation throughout treatment and survivorship. The Psychosocial Assessment Tool (PAT) is a brief parent-report screener capable of systematically identifying families at risk for problems of adaptation. The current study evaluated stability and predictive validity of PAT psychoso...

Patulin (PAT), a mycotoxin mainly produced by Penicillium and Aspergillus, is frequently detected in moldy fruits and fruit products. Exposure of human embryonic kidney (HEK293) cells to PAT led to a dose- and time-dependent increase in the phosphorylation of two major mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), p38 kinase and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK). The phosphorylated forms of MAPK kinas...

A T-jump/time-of-flight mass spectrometer (T-Jump/TOFMS) is used to probe the decomposition of several aminotetrazole containing energetic materials under very high heating rates of 10(5)-10(6) K/s. The materials investigated are 5-amino-1-methyl-1H-tetrazolium dinitramide (MeHAT_DN), 1,5-diamino-4-methyl-1H-tetrazolium dinitramide (MeDAT_DN), 1,5-diamino-1H-tetrazolium nitrate (DAT_N), 1,5-dia...

Bio-orthogonal chemistry has been widely used for conjugation of polymer molecules to proteins. Here, we demonstrate the conjugation of polyethylene glycol (PEG) to bovine beta-lactoglobulin (BLG) by photo-induced cyclo-addition of tetrazole-appended PEG and allyl-modified BLG. During the course of the investigation, a significant side-reaction was found to occur for the conjugation of PEG-tetr...

The title compound, C(9)H(7)N(5), was synthesized by reaction of 4-(bromomethyl)benzonitrile and 2H-tetrazole in the presence of KOH. The relative orientation of the planar tetra-zole ring and the methyl-benzonitrile moiety is (-)-anti-clinal. The crystal packing is dominated by van der Waals inter-actions.
