Deoxycitidine in solution exists as two tautomers one of which is an “uncanonical” imino one. The latter can dominate with such derivatives as 5methyl, 5-hydroxymethyland 5-formylcytosine. The imino tautomer potentially is able to form a hoosteen GC base pair. To detect such pair, it is suggested to use 1H15N NMR. Formation of GC-Hoogsteen base pair with imino tautomer of cytosine can be a reas...

The reaction of hydrazine with the cytosine residues of DNA yields 3-ureidopyrazole, in approximately 50% yield, in addition to the expected 3-aminopyrazole. This product has been identified by ultraviolet, infrared, nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectroscopy. A product of the reaction of hydrazine hydrate with cytosine, formulated by others as NN'-di-(3-pyrazolyl) hydrazine, has been ide...

The reactivity of hydrazine in the presence of diborane has been investigated using ab initio quantum chemical computations (MP2 and CCSD(T) methods with the aug-cc-pVTZ basis set). Portions of the relevant potential energy surface were constructed to probe the formation mechanism of the hydrazine diborane (BH(3)BH(3)NH(2)NH(2)) and hydrazine bisborane (BH(3)NH(2)NH(2)BH(3)). The differences be...

Although the precise mechanism of endotoxin lethality has yet to be defined, it is well recognized that the amount of hepatic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase is reproducibly and significantly reduced after challenge with endotoxin. Hydrazine has been shown to be a specific inhibitor of gluconeogenesis, causing a metabolic crossover at the step catalyzed by phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase. M...

Isoniazid is one of the most commonly used drugs to treat tuberculosis. Its administration is associated with a high incidence of hepatotoxicity. The aim of this study was to establish the protective effects of taurine against cytotoxicity induced by isoniazid and its suspected toxic metabolite hydrazine in isolated rat hepatocytes by measuring reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation, lipid per...

In the title compound, [CaCu(2)(C(9)H(13)N(4)O(4))(2)(CH(3)OH)(2)](n), the Ca(II) atom lies on an inversion center and is situated in a moderately distorted octa-hedral environment. The Cu(II) atom is in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry, defined by four N atoms belonging to the amide and oxime groups of the triply deprotonated residue of N,N'-bis-(2-hydroxy-imino-propano-yl)propane-1,3-dia...

The title compound, poly[(μ2-hydrazine)(μ4-phosphato)iron(III)], [Fe(PO4)(N2H4)] n , was prepared under hydro-thermal conditions. Its asymmetric unit contains one Fe(III) atom located on an inversion centre, one P atom located on a twofold rotation axis, and two O, one N and two H atoms located on general positions. The Fe(III) atom is bound to four O atoms of symmetry-related PO4 tetra-hedra a...

Present study describes the development of a rapid, sensitive and selective flow injection analysis of hydrazine in the aqueous streams of purex process by liquid chromatography system coupled with UV-Visible detector. The method is based on the formation of yellow coloured azine complex by reaction of hydrazine with para-dimethy laminobenzaldehyde (pDMAB). The formed yellow coloured complex is...

Carbon-carbon cross-coupling reactions are essential synthetic tools for synthesizing polymers, natural products, agrochemicals, and pharmaceuticals. Therefore, new catalysts that function with greater efficiency functional group tolerance being researched. We have prepared ferrocenylimine monodentate N P donor ligands N^N N^P bidentate chelating (L1 to L4) employed in stabilizing palladium ion...

A sensitive method is described for the detection of glycoproteins after polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Dansyl hydrazine is condensed with aldehydic functions generated by periodate oxidation of protein bound carbohydrate. The resulting hydrazones are reduced to the stable hydrazine derivatives with sodium borohydride. After destaining, the fluorescent-labeled glycoproteins are visualized ...
