A wide range of new oxime-based photochromic diarylethenes of the cyclopentenone series have been synthesized. Their spectral properties have been investigated in detail upon UV/vis light irradiation in acetonitrile solution, and distinct correlations between photochromic characteristics and substance structures are revealed. It was found that the introduction of an oxime group into the cyclope...

The influence o f the oxim e ether safeners, oxabetrinil and C G A -133205, on glutathione co n ­ tent, glutathione reductase (EC 1.6.4.2), and glutathione-S-transferase (EC 2.5.1.18) activity in seeds and seedlings o f grain sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) M oench. var. Funk G -522-D R ) was investigated. Plant material for these experim ents was derived from seed that was either untreated, or t...

Organophosphorus compounds (OPCs) have a wide variety of applications and are a serious threat for self-poisoning, unintentional misuse, terrorist attack, occupational hazard and warfare attack. The present standard treatment has been reported to be unsatisfactory. Many novel approaches are being used and tested for acute organophosphorus (OP) poison treatment. The bioscavenger concept captured...

The neuroprotective effects of newly developed oximes (K156, K203) and currently available oximes (obidoxime, HI-6) in combination with atropine in rats poisoned with cyclosarin were studied. The cyclosarin-induced neurotoxicity was monitored using a functional observational battery 24 hours after cyclosarin challenge. The results indicate that a newly developed oxime K156 is able to counteract...

Rhodococcus sp. strain YH3-3 has been isolated as an (E)-pyridine-3-aldoxime degrader. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of this strain, with a size of 7,316,908 bp, average G+C content of 62.15%, and 7,281 predicted protein-coding sequences.

In the title compound, [Cu(C(7)H(3)NO(4))(C(6)H(6)N(2)O)(H(2)O)], the coordination geometry of the Cu(II) atom can be described as distorted square pyramidal. The basal plane is defined by one N atom and two O atoms from the deprotonated pyridine-2,6-dicarboxyl-ate ligand, and a pyridyl N atom from the 4-pyridyl aldoxime ligand. The apical position is occupied by a water mol-ecule. O-H⋯O hydrog...

A liquid chromatographic method was developed and validated for the determination of erythromycin an oxime and related substances. The chromatographic analysis was performed on Inertsil C18 ODS column, using the phosphate buffer solution (0.02 M, pH 6.5)-acetonitrile (40:60, V/V) as the mobile phase. Wavelength of the UV detector was 215 nm. All four related substances, including Z isomer of er...

N-Hydroxy-desferrioxamine B (5), a postulated metabolite of the microbial product desferrioxamine B (1), has been prepared by reduction of the intermediate oxime 6 with sodium cyanoborohydride. The oxime was obtained by selective oxidation of desferrioxamine B with hydrogen peroxide and a catalytic amount of sodium tungstate dihydrate. The iron complex derived from 5 enabled definite proof of t...

Testosterone was measured using antibodies raised against testosterone II B-carboxymethyl ether bovine serum albmin (T-IIB-CME-BSA) and testosterone 3- O-carboxymethyl oxime-BSA as immunogen. The antibody produced in this study exhibits minimal cross reactivity with the structurally related steroids specially 5 dihydrotestosterone (5 DHD. This allows to ommit the clean up step and measure ...
