4-(4-Chlorophenyl)-2-(5-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-(1-(4-fluorophenyl)-5-methyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)thiazole (4) and 4-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(5-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-(1-(4-fluorophenyl)-5-methyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)thiazole (5) have been synthesized in high yields. Crystallization of 4 5 from dimethylformamide solvent produced samples suitable for...

Metal-mediated coupling between equimolar amounts of cis-[PdCl2(CNR1)2] (1–5) and the amino acid esters L-HTyrOMe (7) or L-HProOtBu (8) proceeds at 40 °C in chloroform over ca. 6 h. The subsequent workup affords the complexes cis-[PdCl2(CNR1){C(TyrOMe)vNHR1}] (R1 = Xyl 9, 2-Cl-6-Me-C6H3 10) or cis-[PdCl2(CNR1){C(ProOtBu)vNHR1}] (R1 = Xyl 11, 2-Cl-6-Me-C6H3 12, Cy 13, tBu 14, 2-naphthyl 15) in g...

OBJECTIVE Behçet's disease (BD) is a multisystem vasculopathy of unknown cause with variable clinical presentation and the outcome of current treatments is often unsatisfactory. There is evidence for T-cell autoreactivity in BD and this study explores the therapeutic response to lymphocyte depletion with a humanized anti-CD52 antibody, CAMPATH-1H. METHODS Eighteen patients with active BD rece...

Six impurities in pantoprazole sodium bulk drug substance were detected by a simple high performance liquid chromatographic method (HPLC) whose area percentage ranged from approximately 0.05 to 0.34%. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) was performed to identify the molecular weight of the impurities. A thorough study was undertaken to characterize these impurities. These impurities...

Past studies have stated that the parasitostatic effect of IFN-γ is most likely due to the starvation of Toxoplasma gondii for tryptophan in the host cell. The aim of this study was to evaluate the direct effect of two new Naphthalene-Sulfonyl-Indole compounds as competitive molecules for tryptophan on viability and infectivity of Toxoplasma tachyzoites. Tachyzoites of RH strain were incubated ...

Experimental parameters that influence the resolution of 1H-NMR phenol OH signals are critically evaluated with emphasis on the effects of pH, temperature and nature of the solvents. Extremely sharp peaks (Δν1/2≤2 Hz) can be obtained under optimized experimental conditions which allow the application of 1H-13C HMBC-NMR experiments to reveal long range coupling constants of hydroxyl protons and,...

The new alcohol- and ether-functionalised-NHC silver(I) complexes bis(1-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-3-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1H-imidazol-2(3H)-ylidene)silver(I) chloride, [Ag{ImDiPP(C2OH)}2]Cl (4), bis(1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-3-mesityl-1H-imidazol-2(3H)-ylidene)silver(I) chloride, [Ag{ImMes(C2OH)}2]Cl (5), bis(1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-3-methyl-1H-imidazol-2(3H)-ylidene)silver(I) chloride, [Ag{ImMe(C2OH)}2]Cl (6), b...

Reactions of 5-hydrazino-1,3-dimethyl-4-nitro-1H-pyrazole (1) with substituted benzaldehydes (2-5) in methanol gave the new substituted benzaldehyde (1,3-dimethyl-4-nitro-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)hydrazone Schiff base ligands (6-9) benzaldehyde (1,3-dimethyl-4-nitro-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)hydrazone (H-BDH, 6), 2,3-dimethoxybenzaldehyde (1,3-dimethyl-4-nitro-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)hydrazone (MeO-BDH, 7), 4-chlorobenza...

PURPOSE To determine whether in vivo proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy at 3T can provide accurate breast lesion characterization, and to determine the effect of gadolinium on the resonance of tCho. METHODS Twenty-four positive-mammogram patients were examined on a 3T MR scanner. 1H-MRS was performed before and after gadolinium administration. tCho peak was qualitatively evaluated before ...

Isozymes of glutathione reductase (GR) have been purified from red spruce (Picea rubens Sarg.) needles. Two isozymes could be separated by anion-exchange chromatography from both nonhardened or cold-hardened tissue. Based on chromatographic elution profiles, the isozymes were designated GR-1NH and GR-2NH in preparations from nonhardened needles, and GR-1H and GR-2H in preparations from hardened...
