a series of structurally related 2,4-dioxopyrimidine-1-carboxamide derivatives as highly potent inhibitors against acid ceramidase were subjected to hologram quantitative structure-activity relationship (hqsar) analysis. a training set containing 24 compounds served to establish the hqsar model. the best hqsar model was generated using atoms, bond, connectivity, donor and acceptor as fragment d...

The tumor-producing effect of dibenz(a,h)anthracene led Cook (5) to undertake experiments showing that 9-isopropyl BA is a (weak) carcinogenand Fieseret aL (9) synthesized the stronger cancer-producing substances 7-methyl-BA and 7,8-DMBA. Considerably later it was found that 7,12-DMBA (1), 7,8,12-TMBA (1), and 6,7,8-TMBA (21) are very powerful carcinogens. It was evident that substitution of BA...

Density-functional theory is used to model the endo and exo transition states for [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of allylic aryl-selenoxides and -selenimides. The endo transition state is generally preferred for selenoxides if there is no substitution at the 2 position of the allyl group. Based upon the relative energies of the endo and exo transition states, enantioselectivity of rearrangemen...

The nucleophilic substitution of alkyl fluorides was achieved in the intramolecular reactions with O- and N-nucleophiles. The intramolecular defluorinative cyclization reaction was influenced by the nature of nucleophiles, the size of the ring to be formed, and the comformational rigidity of the precursors. Intermolecular nucleophilic substitution reactions of alkyl fluorides under similar reac...
