Background & Aim: Elaeagnus angustifolia and Elaeagnus orientalis have a lot of medical utilization. In folk medicine, the fruit and flower of these plants are used as a tonic and antipyretic agent. The aim of the present study was to chemical analysis of volatile constituents of E. angustifolia and E. orientalis flowers.  Experimental: The...

The 4-nitro-cinnamate anion in the title compound, [Sn(C(7)H(7))(3)(C(9)H(6)NO(4))](n), bridges adjacent tribenzyl-tin cations into a helical chain running along the b axis. The Sn atoms in the two independent mol-ecules adopt distorted trans-C(3)SnO(2) trigonal-bipyramidal geometries. The repeat distance of the polymeric chain is b/2.

The present study aimed to chemically characterize 31 accessions and seven cultivars of basil. The percentage composition of the essential oils of the accessions and cultivars was based on the 14 most abundant constituents: 1,8-cineole, linalool, methyl chavicol, neral, nerol, geraniol, geranial, methyl cinnamate, β-bourbonene, methyl eugenol, α-trans-bergamotene, germacrene-D, epi-α-cadinol, a...

Temperature dependences of 35C1 and 2H quadrupole coupling constants and 35C1 NM R spin-lat­ tice relaxation times in polycrystalline samples were measured in the rotator phase of the butylam­ monium chlorides C4H 9N H 3C1 and C4H 9N D 3C1, obtainable above the phase transition tempera­ ture of 241 K. A rapid decrease of the quadrupole coupling constants of both nuclei upon heating is attribute...

The acceleration, by a factor of 2500, of the hydrolysis of endo-5-[4'(5')imidazolyl]bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-endo- 2-yl trans-cinnamate by 0.5 M sodium benzoate in 42 mol% dioxane in water can be explained without resort to operation of a "charge-relay" mechanism similar to that often postulated to account for the enzymatic activity of serine proteases. The degree of ionization of 4-methylimidazole ...

New series of 2,3-disubstituted quinazolin-4(3H)one were synthesized via the reaction of the readily obtainable 2-thioxo-3-phenyl-quinazolin-4(3H)one 1 with ethyl chloroacetate followed by hydrazinolysis to afford the hydrazide 3 which allowed to react with different electrophilic reagents such as carbon disulphide, phenyl isothiocyanate, β-diketones, anhydrides, acrylonitrile, ethyl cinnamate,...

The title compound, [Y(2)(C(9)H(7)O(3))(6)(C(10)H(8)N(2))(2)(H(2)O)(2)]·2C(10)H(8)N(2), contains two eight-coordinated Y(III) ions, which are linked by two carboxyl-ate groups from two 2-hy-droxy-cinnamate anions, leading to a centrosymmetric dinuclear structure surrounded by solvent 4,4'-bipyridine mol-ecules. It forms a three-dimensional framework connected by extensive O-H⋯O and O-H⋯N hydrog...

The title compound, C29H36O4 [systematic name (4aR,5R,6aS,7R,11aS,11bR)-4a-hydroxy-4,4,7,11b-tetramethyl-1,2,3,4,4a,5,6,6a,7,11,11a,11b-dodecahydrophen-anthro[3,2-b]furan-5-yl cinnamate], a natural diterpene known as pulcherrin J, was isolated from stem barks of medicinally important Caesalpinia pulcherrima (L.). The crystal structure of pulcherrin J shows it to be composed of a central core of...

The broad study of histone deacetylases in chemistry, biology and medicine relies on tool compounds to derive mechanistic insights. A phylogenetic analysis of class I and II histone deacetylases (HDACs) as targets of a comprehensive, structurally diverse panel of inhibitors revealed unexpected isoform selectivity even among compounds widely perceived as nonselective. The synthesis and study of ...
