The morphology and anti bacterial activity of capped Silver Nanoparticles of 5-Methyl 2-mercapto benzimidazole prepared via chemical reduction is studied. Spherical shaped capped Ag-NPs with size of 40nm are obtained by treatment of aqueous silver ions with ethanolic solution of 5-Methyl 2-mercapto benzimidazole as capping agent .The synthesized nanoparticles are characterized by SEM, TEM, XRD,...

• Volatile thiols are responsible for the characteristic aroma of Sauvignon Blanc. There are 4 main volatile thiols: 4-mercapto-4-methylpentan-2-one (4MMP): box tree, broom 3-mercaptohexyl acetate (3MHA): passion fruit 4-mercapto-4-methylpentan-2-ol (4MMPOH): citrus zest 3-mercaptohexan-1-ol (3MH): grapefruit A comparative study of Sauvignon Blancs from around the world showed that those from M...

There has been special interest in the chemistry of quinolone and pyrimidine derivatives due to their diverse biological activities such as anticonvulsant, anti-malarial agents, antibacterial, antiviral, cytostatic, antithelemintic, antigenotoxic, anti-cancer agents. These compounds are also used as targeting delayed-type hypersensivity and anti-convulsant agents. As a part of our research work...

an electroorganic reaction for the synthesis of 7-amino-2, 4-dioxo-5-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1h-pyrano[2, 3-d] pyrimidine-6-carbonitrile and ethyl-7-amino-2, 4-dioxo-5-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1h-pyrano[2, 3-d] pyrimidine-6-carboxylate derivatives are described, using an electrogenerated base of the anion of malonitrile or ethylcyanoacetate. this one-pot, three-component condensation of an a...

in an endeavor to find a novel series of antihyperglycemic agents, new benzimidazole and pyrimidine derivatives were successfully synthesized efficiently in high yield with high purity, starting from amino acids in the presence of phosphorus oxychloride (pocl3). the synthesized compounds were identified by 1h-nmr, 13c-nmr, ft-ir spectroscopic techniques and elemental analysis. all products were...

SUMMARY The protective action of mercaptoalkylamines has been examined. Anticipated protection against HN2 has been observed, l-mercapto-2-aminobutane being slightly more effective than cysteamine. Protection failed in the case of L-phenylalanine mustard and chloroquine mustard, but significant post-protection was obtained with Cytoxan. Results obtained with various combinations of intraperiton...

A semiconducting water-soluble core-shell quantum dots (QDs) system capped with thiolated ligand was used in this study for the sensitive detection of glucose in aqueous samples. The QDs selected are of CdSe-coated ZnS and were prepared in house based on a hot injection technique. The formation of ZnS shell at the outer surface of CdSe core was made via a specific process namely, SILAR (success...

BACKGROUND African trypanosomes are capable of both pyrimidine biosynthesis and salvage of preformed pyrimidines from the host, but it is unknown whether either process is essential to the parasite. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Pyrimidine requirements for growth were investigated using strictly pyrimidine-free media, with or without single added pyrimidine sources. Growth rates of wild-type...
