Selected AbstractsDi- n -butyltin(IV) derivatives of bis(carboxymethyl)benzylamines: synthesis, NMR and X-ray structure characterization and in vitro antitumour propertiesAPPLIED ORGANOMETALLIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 7 2001Teresa Mancilla Abstract Four di- n -butyltin(IV) derivatives of bis(carboxymethyl)benzylamines were synthesized and their structure characterized by 1H,13C and 117/119Sn NMR, Mössbauer spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The derivative substituted in the meta position by a methyl group has been further characterized by X-ray crystallography. This compound exhibits a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry at tin. The NMR data in solution, as well as other spectroscopic results in the solid state, confirm this structure for all the compounds. Evidence is provided to show that the compounds are more highly associated in concentrated solution than in the solid state. Their in vitro antitumour activity is reported.

Steel The structures of two diastereoisomers of norbormide {systematic name: 5-[hydroxy(phenyl)(2-pyridyl)methyl]-8-[phenyl(2-pyridyl)methylene]-3a,4,7,7a-tetrahydro-4,7-methano-1H -isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione}, viz. the unsolvated molecule, C33H25N3O3, and the ethyl acetate hemisolvate, C33H25N3O3·0.5C4H8O2, have been determined unambiguously. They differ in the relative stereochemistry about the exocyclic double bond and the relative conformations of the aryl rings. Each compound exhibits both intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonding. [source] Antinociceptive Activity of a New Benzofuranone Derived from a ChalconeBASIC AND CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY & TOXICOLOGY, Issue 4 2009Pâmela Padaratz The aim of this work was the synthesis of a new benzofuranone compound and evaluation of its antinociceptive potential in mice. The new benzofuranone 4 was synthesized from chalcone 3. The antinociceptive activity of 4 was determined by writhing, formalin, capsaicin, and glutamate and hot-plate tests. Compound 4 caused potent and dose-related inhibition against the writhing test with ID50 6.1 (5.1,7.6) ,mol/kg, i.p., being about 15 times more active than the reference drugs, acetyl salicylic acid and acetaminophen. It was also effective in a dose-dependent manner in significantly reducing the painful stimulus in both phases of formalin, in the capsaicin and in the glutamate test with ID50 values of 27.3 (24.5,30.6) and 18.9 (18.5,19.4) ,mol/kg (first and second phase), 12.6 (9.8,16.2) and 24.5 (20.4,29.6) ,mol/kg respectively. The results showed that the studied compound exhibits both central and peripheral antinociceptive activities and might be further used as a model to obtain new and more potent analgesic drugs. [source] Synthesis of a New Seleninic Acid Anhydride and Mechanistic Studies into Its Glutathione Peroxidase ActivityCHEMISTRY - A EUROPEAN JOURNAL, Issue 23 2008Sun-Chol Yu Dr. Abstract Starting from low toxic salicyloylglycine, a new seleninic acid anhydride 7 that lacks Se,,,N or Se,,,O non-bonded interactions was synthesized. This compound exhibits a fourfold higher glutathione peroxidase-like (GPx-like) activity than ebselen and inhibits plant and mammalian 12/15-lipoxygenases at lower micromolar concentrations. Because of these pharmacological properties, 7 may constitute a new lead compound for the development of anti-inflammatory low-molecular-weight seleno-organic compounds. Analyzing the redox products of 7 with glutathione (GSH) and tBuOOH, we identified three potential catalytic cycles (A, B, C) of GPx-like activity that are interconnected by key metabolites. To study the relative contribution of these cycles to the catalytic activity, we prepared selected reaction intermediates and found that the activity of seleninic acid anhydride 7 and of the corresponding diselenide 11 and selenol 14 compounds were in the same range. In contrast, the GPx-like activity of monoselenide 9 was more than one order of magnitude lower. These data suggested that cycles A and B may constitute the major routes of GPx-like activity of 7, whereas cycle C may not significantly contribute to catalysis. [source] Preferred Functionalization of Metallic and Small-Diameter Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes by Nucleophilic Addition of Organolithium and -Magnesium Compounds Followed by ReoxidationCHEMISTRY - A EUROPEAN JOURNAL, Issue 5 2008David Wunderlich Dipl.-Chem Abstract Covalent sidewall addition to single-walled nanotubes (SWNTs) of a series of organolithium and organomagnesium compounds (nBuLi, tBuLi, EtLi, nHexLi, nBuMgCl, tBuMgCl) followed by reoxidation is reported. The functionalized Rn -SWNTs were characterized by Raman and NIR emission spectroscopy. The reaction of SWNTs with organolithium and magnesium compounds exhibits pronounced selectivity: in general, metallic tubes are more reactive than semiconducting ones. The reactivity of SWNTs toward the addition of organometallic compounds is inversely proportional to the diameter of the tubes. This was determined simultaneously and independently for both metallic and semiconducting SWNTs. The reactivity also depends on the steric demands of the addend. Binding of the bulky t- butyl addend is less favorable than addition of primary alkyl groups. Significantly, although tBuLi is less reactive than, for example, nBuLi, it is less selective toward the preferred reaction with metallic tubes. This unexpected behavior is explained by fast electron transfer to the metallic SWNTs having low-lying electronic states close to the Fermi level, a competitive initial process. The NIR emission of weakly functionalized semiconducting SWNTs, also reported for the first time, implies interesting applications of functionalized tubes as novel fluorescent reporter molecules.
