New sulfonamides are usually tested against bacteria or diseases wherein the older drugs work satisfactorily. There seems to be little advantage in testing new drugs only against those bacteria in which older sulfonamides have already proved their worth. Since the older sulfonamides exert little action on diseases caused by some gram-negative organisms, it seemed advisable to attempt to find on...

A novel Congo red (CR) derivatized silica stationary phase was prepared and packed into a fused silica capillary tube for nano-flow HPLC. A variety of analytes including poly-aromatic hydrocarbons, parabens, acids, sulfonamides, bases, and nucleosides were successfully separated using the CR. In comparison with commercial ODS columns, this new stationary phase has a different separation mechani...

Several lines of evidence have indicated an interrelation between pteroic acid derivatives (Lactobacillus casei factor, folic acid, etc.) and sulfonamides in bacterial metabolism. Teply et al. (1) demonstrated that the inhibition of Lactobacillus arabinosus by sulfapyridine was reversed by a factor in liver extract which resembled folic acid. Also, Miller (2) found the synthesis of folic acid b...

The molecular interaction of various sulfones and sulfonamides with partially purified dihydropteroate synthetase from Neisseria meningitidis M-166 has been examined. The mode of action of the sulfones was similar to that of the sulfonamides. Both groups of drugs were competitive inhibitors of dihydropteroate synthetase with respect to p-aminobenzoate in a partially purified enzyme preparation....

A new series of aromatic and heterocyclic sulfonamides, including six new derivatives, 2-(3-cyclohexene-1-carbamido)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-5-sulfonamide (CCTS), 4-(3-cyclohexene-1-carbamido) methyl-benzenesulfonamide (CCBS), 2-(9-octadecenoylamido)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-5-sulfonamide (ODTS), 2-(4,7,10-trioxa-tetradecanoylamido)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-5-sulfonamide (TDTS), 2-(coumarine-3-carbamido)-1,3,4-thi...

3 0 9 (celecoxib and valdecoxib) could possibly cross react with sulfonamides. The sulfonamide-type reactions (erythema multiforme, Stevens Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) and maculopapular rash) were found to be twice as common with celecoxib as with rofecoxib. The pathogenesis of these reactions is likely to be the same as for sulfonamide induced reactions – T cell mediated...

A redox-neutral palladium(II)-catalyzed conversion of aryl, heteroaryl, and alkenyl boronic acids into sulfinate intermediates, and onwards to sulfones and sulfonamides, has been realized. A simple Pd(OAc)2 catalyst, in combination with the sulfur dioxide surrogate 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane bis(sulfur dioxide) (DABSO), is sufficient to achieve rapid and high-yielding conversion of the boron...

Fluoroquinolones, sulfonamides and macrolides were analyzed in soil samples collected from suburban areas in Tianjin, China. Fluoroquinolones were the predominant class of antibiotics. The mean total concentration of fluoroquinolones (33.56 μg/kg) was 30-fold higher than one of macrolides, which were the second dominant class antibiotics. Sulfonamides showed the lowest level in soil. The spatia...

A quantitative HPLC – fluorescence method for the simultaneous determination of sulfamerazine (SMR) and sulfamethoxazole (SMX) in honey has been developed. Sample pretreatment included acidic hydrolysis, followed by solid phase extraction (SPE) procedure. The liquid chromatography (LC) separation was carried out on RP C 18 column and sulfonamides were detected by fluorescence detector after pre...

Chalcones, or 1,3–diaryl–2–propen–1–ones, one of the major classes of natural products and posses many useful properties like anticancer, antibacterial, antifungal, anti–inflammatory, antimalarial and anti–diabetic activity. We report in this communication the synthesis and anticancer study of a number of novel chalcone sulfonamides. Our results indicate that the synthesis of chalcone sulfonami...
