In the present study, the synthesis of diethylene triamine supported on cellulose biopolymer as a biodegradable solid basic heterogeneous catalyst was suggested. Then, the applicability of the synthesized catalyst cellulose bonded N-propyl diethylene triamine (CBPDETA) was tested for the synthesis of oxindole derivatives, an important class of potentially bioactive compounds. A various series o...

The development of oral sustained or controlled release dosage form of captopril has been an interested topic of research for a long period of time. Difficulties encountered on the fact that the drug is freely water soluble. Such drug is difficult to be delivered orally in a sustained or controlled release manner and, Due to its effectiveness and intensive use as a drug of choice in the treatme...

In this work, thia and selenocarbocyanines with n-alkyl chains of different length, namely with methyl, ethyl, propyl, hexyl and decyl substituents, were studied in homogeneous and heterogeneous media for comparison purposes. For both carbocyanine dyes adsorbed onto microcrystalline cellulose, a remarkable increase in the fluorescence quantum yields and lifetimes were detected, when compared wi...

five new 1-hydroxy-2-(1-alkyloxymethyl)-9,10-anthraquinones (9a-e) have been prepared. selective nitration of 2-methyl-9,10-anthraquinone, reduction to the corresponding amine, diazotization and treatment by sulfuric acid solution afforded the 1-hydroxy-2-methyl-9,10-anthraquinone in good yield as the key intermediate. reaction with dimethylsulphate/k2co3 and subsequent monobromination with nbs...

Previous studies indicate that the CB1 cannabinoid receptor antagonist, N-(piperidin-1-yl)-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-4-met hyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxamide HCl (SR141716A), inhibits the anandamide- and delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol- (THC) induced hypotension and bradycardia in anesthetized rats with a potency similar to that observed for SR141716A antagonism of THC-induced neurobehav...

Precursors involved in the formation of pink and green-blue pigments generated during onion and garlic processing, respectively, have been studied. It has been confirmed that the formations of both pigments are of very similar natures, with (E)-S-(1-propenyl)cysteine sulfoxide (isoalliin) serving as the primary precursor. Upon disruption of the tissue, isoalliin and other S-alk(en)ylcysteine su...

This study aimed to characterize beta(3)-adrenergic receptors (ARs) in rat neonatal cardiomyocytes using the noradrenaline (NOR) properties to modulate the expression and function of the three beta-ARs. We assessed the effect of NOR (physiological nonselective agonist), isoprenaline (ISO, beta-nonselective agonist), dobutamine (DOB, beta(1)-selective agonist), and procaterol (PROC, beta(2)-sele...

New tin (IV) complexes of empirical formula, [Cl2 Me2 Sn(H2 L)1-3], where ((H2 L)1-3: Methyl-2- {[1-methyl-2-(2-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)methylidynenitrilo]ethyl}amino-1-cyclopentenedithiocarboxylate [H2cd3OMesalMeen], Methyl-2-{[1-methyl-2-(2-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)methylidynenitrilo]ethyl}amino-1-cyclopentenedithiocar-boxylate, [H2 cd4OMesalMeen], Methyl-2-{[1-methyl-2-(2-hydroxy-5-methoxyphe...
