l-Menthone of peppermint leaves is reduced to d-neomenthol which is glucosylated and transported to the rhizome, whereupon the beta-d-glucoside is hydrolyzed, the aglycone oxidized back to l-menthone, and this ketone converted to l-3,4-menthone lactone. l-[G-(3)H]-3,4-Menthone lactone and its labeled progenitors, when incubated with excised mint rhizomes, gave rise to nonvolatile lipids as well...

Delavirdine mesylate (U-90152T) is a highly specific nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor currently under development for the treatment of AIDS. The excretion, disposition, and metabolism of delavirdine were investigated in Sprague-Dawley rats after oral administration of [14C]delavirdine mesylate at single doses ranging from 10 to 250 mg/kg and multiple doses ranging from 20 to 250 mg...

The title compound, [Zn(C(10)H(11)N(4)O(2))(2)]·2H(2)O, was prepared by the reaction between Zn(CH(3)COO)(2)·2H(2)O and 2-hydroxy-imino-N'-[1-(2-pyrid-yl)ethyl-idene]propano-hydrazide (Hpop). The central Zn(II) atom has a distorted tetra-gonal-bipyramidal coordination geometry formed by two amide O atoms and four N atoms of two azomethine and two pyridine groups. In the crystal, complex mol-ecu...

Mixed ligand complexes of some transition metals[ Cu(II),Ni(II), Co(II) and Zn(II)] have been investigated Potentiometrically with Pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid(PDA) and 2-hydroxy benzalidine-anthranilic acid (HBAA) in aqueous solution at 298.15 K and 313.15 K. The ionic strength of 0.1 mol dm-3 was kept constant using KNO3. The stability constants of these 1:1:1 ternary complex have been eval...
