Rhodamine 110 (Rho110) has been used in the highly sensitive analysis of monosaccharides, as it reacts with the reducing carbonyl group of the saccharides. The monosaccharide derivatives were investigated by capillary electrophoresis with laser-induced fluorescence detection. The derivatization ...

In this work an analytical method for the determination of rhodamine B in capsicol was developed based on absorption spectrum. The absorption spectra were obtained about the rhodamine B-capsicol mixed solution using spectrophotometer. The experimental results show that the absorption spectra of ...

A simple and sensitive fluorescence quenching method for the determination of trace nitrite has been developed. The method is based on the reaction of Rhodamine 110 with nitrite in acidic medium to form a new compound, which has much lower fluorescence. The optimum experimental conditions were s...

Rhodamine-110/sol–gel samples are prepared by sol–gel technique using dip method. Concentration dependent photophysical studies of these samples have indicated about the least possibility of aggregate formation. The lasing action of Rh-110 in silica samples is studied as a function of dye conc...

Photophysical signatures, namely absorption and emission energies, lifetime and quantum yields, have been computed through TD-DFT approaches and compared with experimental counterparts for the Rhodamine 110 dye in aqueous solution. Thanks to a new protocol of analysis, based on the use of very p...

We have used porous anodic alumina (PAA) films as templates for embedding rhodamine 110 (Rh110) molecules and examined their photoluminescence (PL) properties in detail. The analysis of the polarization memory (PM) of PL strongly suggests that there is a significant energy transfer from PAA to R...

A number of racemic halogen-substituted 2-aryloxypropionic acids, most of which have not yet been resolved, were examined by HPLC on an ergot alkaloid-based chiral stationary phase (CSP). baseline enantiomeric separations were obtained with a selectivity factor (α) within the range 1.06–1.7, t...

A novel Pd(II)-catalyzed dehydrogenative cross-coupling reaction of thiazolo[5,4-d]pyrimidine with unactivated (hetero)arenes via C–H bond activation was achieved. This protocol provides a straightforward and operationally simple method for the synthesis of 2-arylsubstituted thiazolo[5,4-d]pyri...

Acid-catalyzed ionization of pneumocandin Bo (1) in a polar aprotic solvent produces the internally cyclized dehydration product4.

Selective methanolysis or dehydration followed by reduction of the 3-hydroxyglutamine residue of pneumocandin B0 (1) or its dideoxy analog 5 (L-692,289) gave the methyl 3-hydroxyglutamate and 3-hydroxyornithine analogs 6 and 9, respectively. Further derivatization of these analogs allowed a stud...

Preparation and evaluation of a number of stationary phases for improved chromatographic purification of pneumocandin B0, a key intermediate in the synthesis of the antifungal agent, Cancidas, has led to the identification of several materials with potential for improved performance.

The transition metal-free intramolecular regioselective domino cyclization of N-Boc protected ynamides has been developed to provide the corresponding tetrahydroisoquinoline-oxazo-2(3H)-ones in moderate to good yields.

Estrogens are the major female sex steroid hormones, estradiol (E2) being the most potent form in humans. Disturbing the balance between E2 and its weakly active oxidized form estrone (E1) leads to diverse types of estrogen-dependent diseases such as endometriosis or osteoporosis. 17β-Hydroxyst...

In the present work, the synthesis, characterization (FT-IR, multinuclear (1H and 13C) NMR, AAS, Raman, and elemental analysis), DNA binding (cyclic voltammetry, UV–Vis spectroscopy and viscometry), and in vitro biological assessment of nine new ferrocene-based ureas are reported. The desulphur...

In this paper, we report a novel and efficient route for the synthesis of 5-nitrobenzoxazole derivatives starting from 2-fluoro-5-nitroaniline and various benzoyl chloride derivatives under solvent-free conditions at 130 °C in the presence potassium carbonate. Benzoyl chlorides easily underwent...

The electrochemical perfluorination of benzoyl chloride, p-substituted benzoyl chlorides and cyclo-hexane carboxylic acid chloride in anhydrous hydrogen fluoride (AHF) medium on nickel electrode is reported. Experimental conditions suppressing polymeric film formation on the electrode are optimi...

The hypotensive and antihypertensive activities of a A-80b, a newly synthesized pyridazino[4,5-b]indole derivate were investigated in anaesthetized rats. In vitro studies were also done to examine the possible mechanism of its vasodilator action. A 80b (3–15 mg/kg i.p.) showed potent and long-l...

Ethnopharmacological relevanceTotal saponins of Aralia elata (Miq) Seem (TASAES) from the Chinese traditional herb Long ya Aralia chinensis L. is popularly used as a folk medicine to treat rheumatism, neurasthenia, diabetes, hepatitis and antivirus in Asian countries. However, there was poor stu...

Araloside C (AsC) has potential cardioprotective properties. However, the underlying mechanism of AsC-mediated cardioprotection, especially the role of mitochondrial function, remains largely unknown. Here, we used H9c2 cardiomyocytes to study the cardioprotective mechanisms of AsC through H2O2-...

Araloside A is a triterpenoid saponin,which exhibits a broad spectrum of pharmacological activities, such as stimulating fibrinolysis, preventing coagulant, inhibiting renin, and decreasing blood pressure. Our previous report found that the compound exhibits a poor absolute bioavailability. Howe...
