the coupling of tetrazotised 1,8-diaminonaphthalene with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds [acetylacetone,methylacetoacetate and acetoacetanilide] yielded a new series of tetradentate ligand systems. analytical, ir,1h nmr and mass spectral data indicate that the compounds exist in the intramolecularly hydrogen bondeddihydrazone form. dibasic tetradentate n2o2 coordination of these compounds in their [ml...

condensation of aromatic aldehydes with benzoyl acetone under specified conditions yieldedtwo series of polycarbonyl compounds in which the keto group is attached to olefinic linkage.spectral and analytical data revealed the formation of an unsaturated triketone from pyridine-3-carbaldehyde and unsaturated diketone from furfural, salicylaldehyde and 2-hydroxynaphthaldehyde. analytical, ir, 1h n...

copper (cu) is an essential trace element involved in normal reproduction but its over-exposure may produce some detrimental effects. the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of purslane on copper sulfate poisoning on liver structures changes. twenty eight wistar rats were randomly allocated to four treatment groups. group i) control, group ii) copper sulfate (200 mg/kg bw were appl...

dosulepin and doxepin are tricyclic antidepressants. the molecular geometries, harmonic vibrational frequencies, quantum chemical parameters and thermodynamic properties of dosulepin and doxepin were calculated by generalized gradient approximation methods developed by perdew and wang (gga-pw91) and becke-lee-yang-parr (gga-blyp) in the gas phase and solution media. the local reactivity of thes...

Infrared spectra (IR) were used as regressors for a number of QSARs and compared with both mechanistically oriented descriptors and heuristic "chemically neutral" descriptors (modified adjacency matrices eigenvalues). IR spectra usually gave results inferior to those obtained with the mechanistically driven descriptors, with one notable exception, and comparable to those obtained by adjacency m...

Infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopic analysis of eight structural isomers of C20 carbon nanostructures, i.e. ring, tadpole, bow-tie, dumb-bell, spiro, propellane, bowl and cage, were performed at different levels of theory including semi-empirical (AM1 and PM3), Hartree-Fock (HF/6-31++G, 6-31++G**) and density functional theory (B3LYP/6-31++G, 6-31++G**). A broad range of IR spectra...

We present the mid-IR (400-1800 cm(-1)) spectra of 9-ethyl guanine, guanosine, and 2-deoxyguanosine measured by IR-UV double-resonance spectroscopy. We compare the recorded mid-IR spectra with the spectra of the most stable structures obtained from RI-MP2 and RI-DFT-D calculations. The results confirm the enol form for all structures and demonstrate the efficacy of a new approach to DFT calcula...

BACKGROUND Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrometry has been used to measure small molecules in plasma. We wished to extend this use to measurement of plasma proteins. METHODS We analyzed plasma proteins, glucose, lactate, and urea in 49 blood samples from 35 healthy subjects and 14 patients. For determining the concentration of each biomolecule, the method used the following steps: (a...
