Phenacylmalononitrile 1 reacts with dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal to yield an enaminone which could be readily converted into a pyrrole or an aminopyridazine by treating with ammonium acetate and hydrazine hydrate, respectively. Compound 1 reacted with hydrazine hydrate in ethanol at room temperature to yield the dihydropyridazine 9 as a single product. In refluxing ethanol this product fur...

silica-bonded n-propyldiethylenetriamine (7) is employed as a recyclable heterogeneous solid base catalyst for the synthesis of 2-amino-3,5-dicarbonitrile-6-thiopyridines through pseudo four-component condensation reaction between aromatic aldehydes, malononitrile, and 2-amino-thiophenol in refluxing ethanol. silica-bonded n-propyldiethylenetriamine showed much the same efficiency when used in ...

cellulose sulfuric acid was used as an efficient biopolymer-based catalyst for the synthesis of tetrahydropyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline-2,4,6-triones and hexahydro-2h-pyrazolo[5,4-b]quinoline-6-ones via three component reaction of aldehyde, 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexadione and 6-amino-1,3-dimethyluracil or 5-amino-3-methyl-1-phenypyrazole under solvent-free conditions at 90 oc. the major advantages o...

Sulfation is an important reaction in the biotransformation of steroid hormones, neurotransmitters, drugs, and other xenobiotics, yet little is known about the effects of organic solvents on sulfotransferase (SULT) activities in vitro. Initial experiments found that surprisingly low levels of solvent had dramatic effects on sulfotransferase activity. Consequently, we evaluated the effects of fi...

Trypanosoma cruzi is the etiological agent of Chagas disease. Epimastigote forms of T. cruzi can be readily cultured in axenic conditions. Ethanol and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) are commonly used solvents employed as vehicles for hydrophobic compounds. In order to produce a reference plot of solvent dependent growth inhibition for T. cruzi research, the growth of epimastigotes was analyzed in th...

a thin-layer chromatography method has been developed and evaluated for the separation and determination of lysine and methonine in a mixture of amino acids obtained from acid or enzyme hydrolysis of protein. the solvent systems were (a) ethanol-ether, (b) phenol-water, (c) ethyl methyl ketone-pyridine-distilled water-glacial acetic acid. procedures in all the three stages were in the same dime...
