4-Hydroxy benzylideneacetone (4-HBA) is an organic synthesis intermediate and can be used as a precursor for the of raspberry ketone. Herein, 2-deoxy-D-ribose 5-phosphate aldolase (DERA) was overexpressed in E. coli BL21 (DE3) attractive catalyst enzymatic aldol reactions. The reaction between 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (4-HBD) acetone to biosynthesize 4-HBA catalyzed by whole-cell (pRSF-Deoc). yiel...

The reagent 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone (4-HBTS) has been used for the determination of Mo(VI) by spectrophotometric method. The reagent 4-HBTS gives green colour with Mo(VI) solution of weak acidic medium and the maximum absorbance was observed at 365nm, in acidic buffer p H 6.0. The molar absorptivity and Sandell’s sensitivity of Mo(VI)4-HBTS complex are 1.25 x 10 L mol cm and 0.0...

The title compounds were prepared by reaction of 6-acetyltetralin (1) with different aromatic aldehydes 2a-c, namely 2,6-dichlorobenzaldehyde, 2,6-diflouro-benzaldehyde, and 3-ethoxy-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde, to yield the corresponding a,b-unsaturated ketones 3a-c. Compound 3b was reacted with hydrazine hydrate to yield the corresponding 2-pyrazoline 4, while compounds 3a,b reacted with thiourea t...

The polydentate ligand 3-[(2-hydroxybenzylidene)amino]-2-thioxoimidazolidin-4-one was synthesized in the intermolecular cyclocondensation reaction of 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone and ethyl chloroacetate. A novel palladium(II) complex was obtained from cis-[Pd(DMSO)2Cl2] by nucleophilic substitution of both DMSO ligands with the iminic nitrogen and the thiolactamic sulfur from the lig...

The synthesis of 3-alkyl(aryl)-4-(3-ethoxy-4-hydroxybenzylidenamino)-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-ones 3 from the reactions of 3-alkyl(aryl)-4-amino-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-ones 2 with 3-ethoxy-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde is described. The acetylation and methylation reactions of the compounds 3 giving compounds of type 4 and 5, respectively, were investigated. The newly synthesized compound...

Acetalization of benzaldehyde and substituted benzaldehydes (containing both electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups) is explained qualitatively on the basis of global electrophilicity descriptor, w, as proposed by Parr and coworkers. The generated values of w can explain qualitatively the preferential electrophilic addition, and hence, the yield of acetalization obtained in an earlie...

When dhurrin [p-hydroxy-(S)-mandelonitrile-tJ-D-glucoside], the cyanogenic glucoside of sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench], is hydrolyzed by autoclaving, p-hydroxybenzaldehyde (P-HB) is released. The spectrophotometric determination of pHB concentration in autoclaved sorghum leaf extracts provides a measure of the hydrocyanic acid potential (HCN-p) of leaf tissue. Extracts of field-grown sor...
