A chalcone was prepared by the reaction of terephthalaldehyde with 3-acetyl-2,5-dimethylthiophene. Treatment of this chalcone with thiosemicarbazide/phenyl hydrazine/guanidine hydrochloride/thiourea afforded the corresponding pyrazoline, pyrazole, and pyrimidine in good yields. All the new compounds have been characterized by IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, GC-MS and elemental analyses. The anti-bacterial...

The influence of GABA agonists and antagonists on analgesic activity of imipramine (IMA, 20 mg/kg, ip) was studied using the hotplate method. Administration of GABAA receptor agonist muscimol (1 mg/kg, ip), GABAB receptor agonist baclofen (3 mg/kg, ip) or GABA-T inhibitor aminooxyacetic acid (25 mg/kg, ip) increased the analgesic effect of IMA. On the other hand pretreatment of GABAA receptor a...

The data presented in this article describe an effect of N-acetylneuraminic acid and/or quercetin on the inflammatory proteins expressions (TNF-α, ICAM-1, VCAM-1 and MOMA-2) and the N-acetylneuraminic acid (NANA) levels of apolipoprotein E-deficient mice that are given a high-fat diet. Protein expression was performed by immunohistochemical imaging and NANA was quantified by liquid chromatograp...

A novel series of cyanopyridinyl tetrahydronaphthalene incorporated with different heterocycles were synthesized. The key compounds 2a,b were condensed with chloroacetone and ethyl chloroacetate to give 3a,b and 4a,b, respectively. Also condensation of 4a,b with hydrazine hydrate gave the corresponding hydrazide 5a,b. Reaction of 5b with different isothiocyanates gave the corresponding thiosemi...

2-(1-methyl-4-((E)-(2-methylbenzylidene)amino)-2-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-3(2H)-ylidene)-hydrazineecarbothioamide (HCB) was synthesized as a corrosion inhibitor from the reaction of 4-aminoantipyrine, thiosemicarbazide and 2-methylbenzaldehyde. The corrosion inhibitory effects of HCB on mild steel in 1.0 M HCl were investigated using potentiodynamic polarization (PDP) and electrochemical impedance spe...

Successful implementation of ultrasound irradiation for the rapid synthesis of a novel series of 3-[1-(4-substituted-5-(aryldiazenyl)thiazol-2-yl)hydrazono)ethyl]-2H-chromen-2-ones 5a-h, via reactions of 2-(1-(2-oxo-2H-chromen-3-yl)ethylidene) thiosemicarbazide (2) and the hydrazonoyl halides 3(4), was demonstrated. Also, a new series of 5-arylidene-2-(2-(1-(2-oxo-2H-chromen-3-yl)ethylidene)hyd...

A (pyridazinyl)acetate derivative was reacted with thiosemicarbazide and hydrazine hydrate to yield spiropyridazinone and acetohydrazide derivatives, respectively. The acetohydrazide derivative was used as a starting material for synthesizing some new heterocyclic compounds such as oxoindolinylidene, dimethylpyrazolyl, methylpyrazolyl, oxopyrazolyl, cyanoacetylacetohydrazide and oxadiazolylacet...

Condensation of 3-acetyl-8-ethoxycoumarin (3) with thiosemicarbazide gave ethylidenehydrazinecarbothioamide 5, which was transformed into the thiazolidin-4-one derivatives 6,7. Interaction of 3 with DMF/POCl(3) gave b-chloroacroline derivative 8. Treatment of 3 with malononitrile gave benzo[c]chromone and 2-aminobenzonitrile derivatives 9 and 10, respectively with respect to the reaction condit...

Indole is a benzopyrrole in which the benzene and pyrrole rings are fused through the 2-and 3-positions of the pyrrole nucleus. The indole derivatives are very much used as anticonvulsant agents. In the same context, several indole derivatives were prepared by the reaction between indole-3carboxaldehyde and various p-substituted phenylsemicarbazides, in the presence of glacial acetic acid. The ...
