Starting from readily available 2-substituted-4-methylthiazole-5-carboxylic acid hydrazide (1), The title compounds were prepared. The reaction of compound 1 (R=CH3) with formic acid yielded 1-(formyl)-2-(2,4-dimethylthiazole-5-carboxyl) hydrazine (2). Refluxing the latter with phosphorous pentasulfide in xylene afforded compound 3, the reaction of compound 2 with phosphorous pen...

Supramolecular structures were developed from phenylboronic acid-modified cyclodextrins (PBA-CyDs). The intermolecular interaction between the PBA moiety and the CyD cavity was proved using two dimensional (2D)-NMR and powder X-ray diffraction techniques. PBA-α-CyD formed a head-to-tail supramolecular polymer, whereas PBA-β-CyD formed a head-to-head dimer. The supramolecular structures were dis...

Insulin Delivery In article number 2210392, Christoph E. Hagemeyer, Francesca Cavalieri, and co-workers report how biodegradable charge-switchable phytoglycogen nanoparticles with glucose-sensitive phenylboronic acid groups amine moieties can be engineered to form nanocomplexes insulin for its rapid efficient glucose-responsive delivery. Subcutaneous injection of in two distinct diabetic mouse ...

Phenylboronic acids are a class of compounds that bind glucose and other sugars. When polymerized into hydrogels, they provide a convenient nonenzymatic means for sensing glucose concentration, provided competing sugars are present at negligible concentrations. In this paper we provide a comprehensive study of swelling of hydrogels containing methacrylamidophenylboronic acid (MPBA), as a functi...

reaction of 2-hydrazinocarbonyl-3-chloro-5-phenoxy-benzo[b] thiophene with different substituted phenyl isothiocyanate gave n-substituted arylthiosemi-carbazide derivatives (1a-h). 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives (2a-h) were prepared by the cyclization of arylthiosemicarbazides (1a-h) with concentrated sulphuric acid. all the compounds were screened for their antitubercular activity against mycob...

an efficient one-pot oxidation/condensation tandem process has been developed for the synthesis of 2-substituted benzimidazole derivatives from benzylic alcohols and 1,2-phenylenediamine with use of urea-hydrogen peroxide/silica phosphoric acid  as a bifunctional catalyst. this method provides a rapid and efficient access to 2-substituted benzimidazoles.
