-lactam fused enediynes have been successfully synthesized by intramolecular Kinugasa reaction in moderate yields. DSC studies indicated significant influence of the -lactam ring upon the reactivity of enediynes. None of the -lactam fused enediynes (under ring opening conditions) as well as the 11-membered monocyclic enediyne as the tosylate salt showed any cleavage of plasmid DNA. Interestingl...

Abstract This work addresses the effect of chaotropic anions (thiocyanate and tosylate) on solubility glycine, L-leucine, L-phenylalanine, L-aspartic acid in aqueous solutions at 298.2 K. The salts used were NaSCN, KSCN, NH 4 SCN, NaC 7 H SO 3 (sodium tosylate), with salt concentrations ranging from 0 to 2 molal. pH saturated was registered, solid-phase studies also performed. All thiocyanate s...

Facile synthesis and spectroscopic data analyses of three 5beta-cholane derivatives, 3alpha-tosyloxy-5beta-cholan-24-ol (3), 5beta-cholan-24-ol (4) and 5beta-cholan-24-yl tosylate (5), are described.

Aromatic radiofluorination of the diaryliodonium tosylate precursor with [(18)F]fluoride ions has been applied successfully to access [(18)F]flumazenil in high radiochemical yields of 67.2 ± 2.7% (decay corrected). The stability and reactivity of the diaryliodonium tosylate precursor plays a key role in increasing the production of (18)F-labelled molecules under the fluorine-18 labelling condit...

(1H-Benzo[d][1,2,3]triazol-1-yloxy)tris(dimethylamino)phosphonium hexafluorophosphate (BOP), 1H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazol-1-yl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (Bt-OTs), and 3H-[1,2,3]triazolo[4,5-b]pyridine-3-yl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (At-OTs) are classically utilized in peptide synthesis for amide-bond formation. However, a previously undescribed reaction of these compounds with alcohols in the presen...

The prophylactic value of parenterally administered bretylium tosylate against the onset of dysrhythmias after acute myocardial infarction has been assessed by a controlled trial in 101 male patients. Bretylium significantly reduced the incidence of supraventricular dysrhythmias but was without significant effect on the incidence of ventricular dysrhythmias. The only serious side-effect of the ...

The synthesis and fluorescence properties of a naphthalenediimide ditosylate are presented. The fluorescence is highly solvent and morphology dependent with a dramatic change in fluorescence output occurring following melting from a crystalline form. This observation is attributed to thermal disruption of the crystal structure allowing the formation of emissive dimers within the amorphous melt.

We generated the second harmonics of pulses in the far-infrared region (30-55 microm), using the organic salt dimethylamino-4-N-methylstilbazolium tosylate (DAST). We demonstrate that DAST can be used to characterize ultrashort pulses in a spectral region where no other materials are available. To illustrate the need for such characterizations, we show the effects of propagation through air on ...
