Macrocyclic heterobinuclear Zn(II)–Cu(II) complexes with phenol based dicompartmental ligands possessing contiguous hexa- and penta-coordination sites were prepared by a stepwise procedure. The ligands include similar N4O2 and dissimilar N(imine)3O2 and N(amine)3O2 coordination sites sharing two phenolic oxygen atoms. The six-coordination site comprises two pyridyl pendant arms on the amine nit...

Novel analogues of N-piperazinyl fluoroquinolones were prepared and evaluated against a panel of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, to study the effect of introducing bulky anthracene and phenanthrene moieties on the antibacterial effects of norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin and gatifloxacin. Although most of the novel synthesized compounds had lower antibacterial effects, some derivatives show...

The difructose anhydrides include four welldefined crystalline sugars. Diheterolevulosan was first prepared by Pictet and Chavan [1]l by the action of concentrated hydrochloric acid on fructose at 0° C. This sugar is a difructopyranose in which carbon atoms 1 and 2 of each fructose residue are joined to form a dioxane ring. The other members [2,3] of this group arc designated difructose anhydri...

p28 and nrc peptides are two anticancer peptides with various mechanisms have shown to be effective against breast cancer. therefore, it seems that construction of a chimeric protein containing the two peptides might cause synergistic cytotoxic effects. however, since the two peptides bear opposite charges, production of a chimeric protein in which the two moieties do not intervene each other i...
