A novel recognition method for selective determination of the hyoscine N-Butyl bromide (HBB), an antispasmodic agent for smooth muscles, was devised using extended gate field-effect transistor (EG-FET) as transducing unit. For this purpose a PVC membrane, containing hyoscine n-butyl-tetraphenyl borate ion-pair as recognition component, was coated on Ag/AgCl wire, which was connected to the exte...

In the title compound, C9H13NO2S, the dihedral angle between the thiophene ring and the carbamate group is 15.79 (14)°. In the crystal structure, intra-molecular C-H⋯O inter-actions in tandem with the tert-butyl groups render the packing of adjacent mol-ecules in the [001] direction nearly perpendicular [the angle between adjacent thio-phene rings is 74.83 (7)°]. An inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrog...

1. We have investigated whether methylguanidine (MG), an uremic toxin, modulates the expression of the inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and nitric oxide (NO) release in vitro in LPS-induced J774 macrophages. 2. Addition of MG (0.01-1mM) or L-NAME (0.01-1mM), 30 min before LPS challenge, inhibited significantly (37.77 % inhibition, P<0.001; n=12) but only at the highest concentration teste...

In the title compound, C(30)H(26), the dihedral angle between the two fluorene ring systems is 61.75 (4)°.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Ni(C32H36N4)], contains two independent mol-ecules exhibiting an overall ruffled conformation of the porphyrin macrocycle and differing mainly in the positions of the methyl groups. The average Ni-N bond lengths are 1.912 (2) and 1.910 (2) Å in the two mol-ecules. The mol-ecules form a closely spaced lattice structure in which neighbouring porphyrins ...

The title compound, C(24)H(41)NO, is a new derivative of the anti-HIV steroid 17β-(N-tert-butyl-amino-carbon-yl)androst-4-en-3-one. There are four rings in the structure and these are trans-fused. The three six-membered rings exhibit chair conformations, while the five-membered ring adopts an envelope conformation.

In the title compound, C(20)H(21)N(3), the pyrimidine ring is inclined at dihedral angles of 51.57 (4) and 2.49 (4)° to the two phenyl rings. The dihedral angle between the two terminal phenyl rings is 50.44 (4)°. In the crystal, adjacent mol-ecules are linked via a pair of N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming an inversion dimer with an R(2) (2)(8) ring motif. Furthermore, the crystal structure is sta...
