چکیده
Formobactin, a new free radical scavenger, was isolated from the culture of Nocardia sp. strain ND20. The structure of formobactin was determined to be a member of the nocobactin group antibiotics. Formobactin inhibited lipid peroxidation in rat brain homogenate. Formobactin also showed the activity to suppress L-glutamate toxicity in neuronal hybridoma N18-RE-105 cells.

In this paper, the synthesis and free-radical scavenging capacity of novel calix[4]arene-based cluster of paracetamol was reported. The phenolic structures of acetaminophen and calix[4]arene prompted us for designing a synthetic route for calix[4]arene-based cyclic tetramer of paracetamol. The present chalice-shaped cluster is the first example of calixarene/acetaminophen hybrid and paracetamol...
