2-n-Butyl-4-chloro-5-hydroxy-methyl-1-[(2'-(1H)-tetrazol-5-yl)biph enyl-4- yl)methyl]imidazol potassium salt (DuP 753) is a nonpeptide angiotensin II receptor antagonist that inhibits the contractile effects of angiotensin II competitively and shows pA2 values of 8.27 on the rabbit aorta and jugular vein, 8.66 on the rat portal vein and stomach, 8.19 on the rat urinary bladder, and 8.36 on huma...

The title compound, C18H24N2O4·H2O {systematic name: (1aR,7aS,8R,10aS,10bS,E)-5-hy-droxy-methyl-8-[(1H-imidazol-1-yl)meth-yl]-1a-methyl-2,3,6,7,7a,8,10a,10b-octa-hydro-oxireno[2',3':9,10]cyclo-deca-[1,2-b]furan-9(1aH)-one monohydrate}, an imidazole derivative of melampomagnolide B was synthesized under Michael addition conditions. The mol-ecule is built up from fused ten-, five- (lactone) and t...

The development of novel non-peptide compounds with high affinity for-angiotensin II (Ang II) receptors has greatly facilitated the subclassification of Ang II receptors into AT1- and AT2-receptor subtypes. Whereas PD 123177 (1-(4-amino-3-methylphenyl)methyl-5-diphenyl-acetyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro- 1H-imidazol [4,5-c]pyridine-6-carboxylic acid) is the prototypical antagonist for AT2-receptors, DuP...

IN THE TITLE COMPOUND (SYSTEMATIC NAME 2-amino-1-methyl-4-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-3-ium 2-chloro-acetate), C(4)H(8)N(3)O(+)·C(2)H(2)ClO(2) (-), the mol-ecular aggregations are stabil-ized through classical (N-H⋯O) and non-classical (C-H⋯O and C-H⋯N) hydrogen-bonding inter-actions. The cations are linked to the anions, forming ion pairs through two N-H⋯O bonds that produce characteristic R(2...

A practical protocol for the preparation of (5Z)-2-alkylthio-5-arylmethylene-1-methyl-1,5-dihydro-4H-imidazol-4-one derivatives is reported. The new compounds were obtained in good yield and stereoselectivity in two steps, namely a solvent-free Knoevenagel condensation under microwave irradiation, followed by an S-alkylation reaction with various halogenoalkanes.

Clickable ligands like N,N'-bis((pyridin-2-yl)methyl)prop-2-yn-1-amine (L(1)) and N-((1-methyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)methyl)-N-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)prop-2-yn-1-amine (L(2)) have been used to synthesise a series of manganese(ii) complexes for grafting onto appropriate solid supports. These ligands mimic the 2-His-1-carboxylate facial chelation present in the active site of the manganese-dependent diox...

In the title salt, C10H11N4O2 (+)·I(-), the asymmetric unit consists of a pyridinium cation bearning a (1-methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)methyl group at the N position and an iodide anion. The imidazole ring is quasiplanar, with a maxiumum deviation of 0.0032 (16) Å, and forms a dihedral angle of 67.39 (6)° with the plane of the pyridinium ring. The crystal packing can be described as alternat...

The asymmetric unit of the title hydrated salt, (C10H18N8S2)2[BiCl6]NO3·2H2O, contains two independent 3-amino-1-carbamo-thioyl-5-[(2-{[(5-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium-4-yl)meth-yl]sulfan-yl}eth-yl)amino]-1H-1,2,4-triazol-4-ium cations, one hexa-chloridobismuthate anion, one nitrate anion and two solvent water mol-ecules. The dihedral angles between the imidazole and triazole rings in the cations a...
