Three sterically crowded peri-substituted naphthalene phosphines, Nap[PPh(2)][ER] (Nap=naphthalene-1,8-diyl; ER=SEt, SPh, SePh) 1-3, which contain phosphorus and chalcogen functional groups at the peri positions have been prepared. Each phosphine reacts to form a complete series of P(V) chalcogenides Nap[P(E')(Ph(2))(ER)] (E'=O, S, Se). The novel compounds were fully characterised by using X-ra...

We study the cohomology of the group consisting of all C∞diffeomorphisms of the line, which are C1-flat to the identity at the origin. We construct non-trivial two second real cohomology classes and uncountably many second integral homology classes of this group. 1. Notations and main results We denote by a1 the Lie algebra of all formal vector fields on R with the Krull topology. For k ≥ 0, we...

Quercetin is an important dietary flavonoid with putative beneficial effects in the prevention of cancer and CVD. The in vivo bioactivity of quercetin depends on its bioavailability, which varies widely between foods. We used an in situ rat intestinal perfusion model to study whether differential small intestinal hydrolysis of the sugar moiety of five naturally occurring quercetin glycosides de...

A high heat solid-state technique was used to produce a set of phosphor Sr4La(PO4)3O:Ce3+,Tb3+,Mn2+ (Sr:Mn). In Sr4La(PO4)3O, the luminescence characteristics, resistance, and energy conversion between Ce3+ Tb3+ as well Mn2+ were thoroughly researched. Introducing activator particles can significantly increase dim green-emitting from red-emitting Mn via conversion. The color emissions might be ...

Quercetin is a dietary antioxidant that prevents oxidation of low-density lipoproteins in vitro. Intake of quercetin was inversely associated with coronary heart disease mortality in elderly Dutch men. However, the extent of absorption of quercetin in humans is unclear. The aim of this study was to quantify absorption of various forms of quercetin. Nine healthy ileostomy subjects were studied, ...

A free radical scavenging activity guided fractionation of the polar extract from roots of Limonium brasiliense (Plumbaginaceae) led to the isolation of five active compounds including: myricetin 3-O-alpha-rhamnopyranoside (1), (-)-epigallocatechin 3-O-gallate (2), (-)-epigallocatechin (3), (+)-gallocatechin (4) and gallic acid (5). These and other chemical constituents are reported for the fir...

A new anthraquinone, Rubiacordone A (1) (6-acetoxy-1-hydroxy-2-methylanthraquinone-3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranoside), was isolated together with the known anthraquinone, 1-acetoxy-6-hydroxy-2-methylanthraquinone-3-O-[alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->2)-beta-D-glucopyranoside] (2), from the dried roots of Rubia cordifolia. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of extensive 1D and 2D-NMR, as well...

A study of the antimicrobial compounds from Moneses uniflora resulted in the isolation of a novel compound, 8-chloro-2,7-dimethyl-1,4-naphthoquinone (8-chlorochimaphilin) (1), together with chimaphilin (2) and 3-hydroxychimaphilin (3) as the antimicrobial components. 2,7-Dimethyl-1,3-dihydroxynaphthyl 4-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranoside (4) and 2,7-dimethoxy-1,4,8-trihydroxynaphthalene (6) were also i...

Quercetin, a flavone, is multifaceted, having anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties. In the present study, we explored the effects of quercetin on the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and invasion of pancreatic cancer cells and the underlying mechanisms. We noted that quercetin exerted pronounced inhibitory effects in PANC-1 and PATU-8988 cells. Moreover, quercetin...
