The self-assembly of 5,10,15,20-tetra(4-pyridyl)-21H,23H-porphine (TPyP) on Au(111) electrodes was investigated. The adlayer structure was found to depend on the electrode potential. At positive potentials (>0.5V(SCE)), a disordered layer of TPyP is formed on the Au(111) electrode. STM images showed that the disordered molecules are immobile. At negative potentials (-0.2V(SCE)), however, the mo...

6-[(4-Methoxy/4,9-dimethoxy)-7-methylfurochromen-5-ylideneamino]-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydropyrimidin-4-ones 1a,b were prepared by reaction of 6-amino-2-thiouracil with visnagen or khellin, respectively. Reaction of 1a,b with methyl iodide afforded furochromenylideneaminomethylsulfanylpyrimidin-4-ones 2a,b. Compounds 2a,b were reacted with secondary aliphatic amines to give the corresponding furochrom...

UNLABELLED Ruthenium (Ru) complexes are currently the focus of substantial interest because of their potential application as chemotherapeutic agents with broad anticancer activities. This study investigated the in vitro and in vivo anticancer activities and mechanisms of two Ru complexes-2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-Octaethyl-21H,23H-porphine Ru(II) carbonyl (Ru1) and 5,10,15,20-Tetraphenyl-21H,23H-por...

Nano-SbCl5.SiO2 and SbCl5.SiO2 are bench-top catalysts which are reusable, readily available, versatile andefficient for promotion of many acid catalyzed organic reactions. These catalysts do not need specialprecautions for preparation, handling or storage, and they can be stored at an ambient temperature for monthswithout losing their catalytic activity. 4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones(thiones) ...

Dasabuvir [also known as ABT-333 or N-(6-(3-(tert-butyl)-5-(2,4-dioxo-3,4-dihydropyrimidin-1(2H)-yl)-2-methoxyphenyl)naphthalen-2-yl)methanesulfonamide] is a potent non-nucleoside NS protein 5B polymerase inhibitor of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) and is being developed in combination with paritaprevir/ritonavir and ombitasvir in an oral regimen with three direct-acting antivirals for the treatme...

Catalysis using supported gold nanoparticles has attracted significant research interest due to their unique properties and potential that is directly related particle size. An efficient one-pot, three-component procedure developed for the preparation of pyrimido[4,5- b][1,6]naphthyridin-4( 1H)-one derivatives (4a–h) by cyclocondensation 6-amino-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydropyrimidin-4( (1), aromatic al...
