Four new hydroporphyrins [the o, m and p isomers of 5,10,15,20-tetra(hydroxyphenyl)chlorin and 5,10,15,20-tetra(m-hydroxyphenyl)bacteriochlorin] related to the tetra(hydroxyphenyl)porphyrins have been prepared. They show the expected strong absorption bands in the red region of the visible spectrum and are found to be very effective tumour photosensitizers.

4'-Hydroxyphenyl alpha-glucoside and 4'-hydroxyphenyl beta-glucoside were polymerized with horseradish peroxidase. The isolated dimers were found to have linkages at C3' of the hydroxyphenyl moieties and proved to be fluorescent. Low accumulation of oligomers was attributed to increasing electrochemical reactivity with polymerization degrees, which were expected from the levels of highest occup...

A variety of novel 4-[(4'-substituted phenyl)-6-(4"-hydroxyphenyl)-2-substituted imino] pyrimidines were synthesized by reacting 4-(4'-substituted phenyl)-6-(4"-hydroxyphenyl)-2-aminopyrimidines with different substituted aromatic aldehydes, with coumarin and with chloroisatin. The 4-(4'-chlorophenyl)-6-(4"-hydroxyphenyl)-2-aminopyrimidines were synthesized by reacting 3-(4'-substituted phenyl)...

These experiments aimed to assess whether enhanced activity at the cannabinoid CB1 receptor elicits antidepressant-like effects. To examine this we administered 1 and 5 mg/kg doses of the endocannabinoid uptake inhibitor AM404; 5 and 25 microg/kg doses of HU-210, a potent CB1 receptor agonist; 1, 2.5 and 5 mg/kg of oleamide, which elicits cannabinoidergic actions; 1 and 5 mg/kg doses of AM 251,...

Bisphenol A (BPA) is metabolized by a Gram-negative aerobic bacterium via a novel pathway involving oxidative skeletal rearrangement of the BPA. Oxidation of the aliphatic methyl group of BPA leads to coproduction of the methyl-hyroxylated 2,2-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1-propanol and a skeletally rearranged triol 1,2-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-propanol. The major route of metabolism (> 80%) is through t...

The series of 6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-5H-5-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)-2-(4'-substituted benzylidine)thiazolo(2,3-b)quinazolin-3(2H)-ones (4a-j) and 6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-5H-5-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)-2-(4'-substituted benzylidine)-3-(4-nitrophenyl amino)thiazoloquinazolines (5a-j) were synthesized by the reported method and evaluated for their phosphodiesterase inhibitory activity. All test compounds exhibited good ...

The photophysical properties and excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) processes for 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl)-4-chloromethylthiazole (1), 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl)-4-phenylthiazole (2), 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl)-4-hydroxymethyl-thiazole (3) were studied at the TD-B3PW91/6–31 + G(d, p)/IEFPCM level. structures of 1–3 fully optimized corresponding structural parameters, infrared spectra electron...

In the face of emergence bacteria resistant to common antibacterials and excessive accumulation free radicals that can cause several diseases, it is important look for new antioxidants. The goal this work was synthesize three chalcones derivatives by Claisen-Schmidt condensation then evaluate their antibacterial antioxidant activities. structure these 3 compounds has been determined NMR (1H 13C...
