Addition of organic azides, N(3)R (R = 2,4,6-trimethylphenyl (Mes), phenyl (Ph), 1-adamantyl (Ad)), to a solution of the uranium(III) alkyl complex, Tp*(2)U(CH(2)Ph) (Tp* = hydrotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)borate) (1), results in the formation of a family of uranium(iv) imido derivatives, Tp*(2)U(NR) (2-R). Notably, these complexes were synthesized in high yields by coupling of the benzyl groups...

(9-Methyl-5,6-dihydronaphtho[1â,2â:4,5]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-11-yl)hydrazine (1) was used as a precursor for preparation of some novel 1-(9-methyl-5,6-dihydronaphtho[1â,2â:4,5]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-11-yl)-1H-pyrazoles 2â7, -1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione 8, and -pyridazin-3(2H)-one 9. Moreover, the acyclic C-nucleosides 10 and 11 were prepared by treating compound 1 with D-glucose. The in vitro a...

A series of novel 3-alkyl-1,5-diaryl-1H-pyrazoles were synthesized as combretastatin A-4 (CA-4) analogues and evaluated for antiproliferative activity against three human cancer cell lines (SGC-7901, A549 and HT-1080). Most of the target compounds displayed moderate to potent antiproliferative activity, and 7k was found to be the most potent compound. Structure-activity relationships indicated ...

A novel approach to the synthesis of pyrazole derivatives from tosylhydrazones of alpha,beta-unsaturated carbonyl compounds possessing a beta-hydrogen is proposed, exploiting microwave (MW) activation coupled with solvent free reaction conditions. The cycloaddition was studied on three ketones (trans-4-phenyl-3-buten-2-one, beta-ionone and trans-chalcone). The corresponding 3,5-disubstituted-1H...

New anxiolytics have been discovered by prediction of biological activity with computer programs pass and derek for a heterogeneous set of 5494 highly chemically diverse heterocyclic compounds (thiazoles, pyrazoles, isatins, a-fused imidazoles and others). The majority of tested compounds exhibit the predicted anxiolytic effect. The most potent activity was found in 2-(4-nitrophenyl)-3-(4-pheny...
