The biocatalyzed conversion of hyocholic acid (3α,6α,7α-trihydroxy-5β-cholan-24-oic acid) into ω-muricholic (3α,6α,7β-trihydroxy-5β-cholan-24-oic has been obtained exploiting a small library 7α- and 7β-HSDHs (hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases). process optimized performed avoiding the isolation 7-oxo intermediate using appropriate coupled enzymes for in situ cofactor regeneration. Moreover, reducti...

IN THE CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF THE TITLE COMPOUND [SYSTEMATIC NAME: bis-(tri-ethyl-ammonium) 2,5-di-chloro-3,6-dioxo-cyclo-hexa-1,4-diene-1,4-diolate], 2C6H16N(+)·C6Cl2O4 (2-), the chloranilate anion lies on an inversion center. The tri-ethyl-ammonium cations are linked on both sides of the anion via bifurcated N-H⋯(O,O) and weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds to give a centrosymmetric 2:1 aggregate. The 2:...

Five new highly oxygenated lanostane-type triterpenoids [ganoderic acid GS-1 (1), ganoderic acid GS-2 (2), ganoderic acid GS-3 (3), 20(21)-dehydrolucidenic acid N (4) and 20-hydroxylucidenic acid A (5)] were isolated from the fruiting body of Ganoderma sinense, together with known compounds including 6 triterpenoids and 3 sterols. The structures of the new triterpenoids determined by spectrosco...

A series of triazenes derived from 5-(4-aminophenyl)-2,4-dihydro–4-substituted-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiones 1a-c, aminoglutethimide or para-aminobenzoic acid have been synthesized for in vitro anticancer properties against three cell lines. The selected compounds; 1,3-bis[4(4-methyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thioxo-5-yl)phenyl]-3H-triazene 2a, 1,3-bis[4(4-ethyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol...

The antioxidant activity of two synthesized coumarins namely, N-(4,7-dioxo-2- phenyl-1,3-oxazepin-3(2H,4H,7H)-yl)-2-(2-oxo-2H-chromen-4-yloxy)acetamide 5 and N-(4-oxo-2-phenylthiazolidin-3-yl)-2-(2-oxo-2H-chromen-4-yloxy)acetamide 6 were studied with the DPPH, hydrogen peroxide and nitric oxide radical methods and compared with the known antioxidant ascorbic acid. Compounds 5 and 6 were synthes...

N-(2-(2,5-dioxo-2,5-dihydro-1H-pyrrol-1-yl)ethyl)-6-fluoronicotinamide ([(18)F]FNEM), a novel prosthetic agent that is thiol-specific, was synthesized using a one-pot two-step strategy: (1) (18)F incorporation by a nucleophilic displacement of trimethylammonium substrate under mild conditions; (2) amidation of the resulting 6-[(18)F]fluoronicotinic acid 2,3,5,6-tetrafluorophenyl ester with N-(2...

In the title compound, C(14)H(16)N(2)O(4)S, the thia-diazine ring is in a half-boat conformation. The aromatic ring deviates from the plane of this moiety at an angle of 74.6 (2)°. The structure displays inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonding [N⋯O = 2.8157 (16) Å], creating ribbons along the [010] axis. There are also weak C-H⋯O inter-actions in the crystal but no π-π stacking.
