A library of robust ghrelin receptor mutants with single substitutions at 22 positions in the main ligand-binding pocket was employed to map binding sites for six different agonists: two peptides (the 28-amino-acid octanoylated endogenous ligand ghrelin and the hexapeptide growth hormone secretagogue GHRP-6) plus four nonpeptide agonists-the original benzolactam L-692,429 [3-amino-3-methyl-N-(2...

In title compound, [PtCl2(C15H21N3O2)2], the Pt(II) cation, located on an inversion center, is coordinated by two Cl(-) anions and two 3-(4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-2-methyl-5-(piperidin-1-yl)-2,3-di-hydro-1,2,4-oxa-diazole ligands in a distorted Cl2N2 square-planar geometry. The di-hydro-oxa-diazole and piperidine rings display envelope (with the non-coordinating N atom as the flap atom) and chair co...

In the title mol-ecular salt (systematic name: 3-{2-[4-(6-fluoro-1,2-benzoxazol-3-yl)piperidin-1-yl]eth-yl}-9-hy-droxy-2-methyl-1,6,7,8,9,9a-hexa-hydro-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one nitrate), C(23)H(29)FN(4)O(3) (+)·NO(3) (-), the piperidine ring displays a chair conformation and its N atom is protonated; the N-H bond is in an axial orientation. The ring bearing the hy-droxy group exhibits a hal...

In this work, the effect of ligand's length on interaction energy of six oximes, A [2-(hydroxyimino)-N-((1-(2-(2-((hydroxyimino)methyl)-1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl)acetamide], B [2-(hydroxyimino)-N-((1-(3-(2-((hydroxyimino)methyl)-1H-imidazol-1-yl)propyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl)acetamide], C [2-(hydroxyimino)-N-((1-(4-(2-((hydroxyimino)methyl)-1H-imidazol-1-yl)but...

About half of the drugs currently produced are chiral compounds, and about 90 % these compounds sold as racemates, consisting an equimolar mixture two enantiomers. Although they have same chemical structure, most optical isomers substances show marked differences in biological activity. It is known that presence a single asymmetric atom has become almost integral part advanced drug design. The ...

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C(17)H(25)N(3)O(2), one-dimensional chains are formed via inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds along the a axis.
