Alteration of protein O-glycosylation in various human cancers including breast cancer is well known, but molecular roles of their aberrant glycosylations on cancer have not been fully understood. We previously reported critical roles of polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 6 (GALNT6 or...

Emerging evidence suggests that vascular endothelial growth facto (VEGF) is important in the treatment of various ischemic and cardiovascular diseases. However, it often suffers from high cost and easy deactivation with a short half-life. Here, we describe a synthetic 2-N, 6-O-sulfated chitosan ...

Cathodic reductions of 2,2′-furils in the presence of N-arylcarbonimidoyl dichlorides lead to 2-arylimino-4,5-di(2-furyl)-1,3-dioxoles in high yields, along with minor amounts of (E)-1,2-di(2-furyl)vinylene bis(N-arylchloroformimidates). HF and B3LYP density functional theory methods have been ...

(2-Furyl)phenyl(2-pyridyl)phosphine has been synthesised by reaction of 2-furyllithium with chlorophenyl(2-pyridyl)phosphine. The new ligand in combination with Pd(OAc)2 and methanesulphonic acid provides a catalytic system highly active in the alkoxycarbonylation of terminal alkynes. The cataly...

Three donor–acceptor type π-conjugated polymers were synthesized electrochemically:poly[2,3-di(2-furyl)-5,8-bis(2-(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)) quinoxaline] (PFETQ), poly[2,3-di(2-furyl)-5,8-bis(2-thienyl) quinoxaline] (PFTQ) and poly[2,3-di(2-furyl)-5,8-bis(2-(3-methoxythiophene)) quinoxaline...

Pd(OAc)2 in combination with tri(2-furyl)phosphine and methanesulfonic acid is an efficient catalyst for the alkoxycarbonylation of 1-alkynes. Fairly good reaction rates are obtained under mild conditions (50–80°C and P(CO)=20 bar) with high regioselectivity (ca. 95%) towards the formation of ...

The model ketone of bio-oil, 2-furyl methyl ketone (FMK) or 1-(2-furanyl)-ethanone, which is the main component in Saccharina (Laminaria) Japonica (S. Japonica) pyrolysis products, was successfully upgraded into methyl cyclopentane in the liquid phase and methane in the gas phase. Hydrodeoxygena...

The conformations of E-2-phenyl-3(2′-furyl)propenoic acid and its methyl ester were investigated by NMR spectroscopy. Applying various solvents (methanol, chloroform and dimethyl sulfoxide) the possible conformers in solutions were studied by two-dimensional NOESY measurements. Irrespective to ...

A practical method to prepare precursor of [N-methyl-11C]vorozole ([11C]vorozole), an efficient positron emission tomography (PET) tracer for imaging aromatase in the living body, was established. Sufficient amount of the racemate including norvorozole, a demethylated vorozole derivative used as...

The standard (p° = 0.1 MPa) molar enthalpies of combustion, ΔcHm∘, for the 3- and 4-nitrobenzophenones and for the 3,3′-dinitrobenzophenone, in the crystalline state, were determined, at the temperature T = 298.15 K, using a static bomb combustion calorimeter. For these compounds, the standa...

A comparative study on the arylation of β-dicarbonyl derivatives (acetylacetone, methyl acetoacetate and dimethyl malonate) by using the photo-induced decomposition of arylazosulfides is presented. The arylazosulfides used contained the aryl moieties related to Ketoprofen or Ibuprofen and the r...

Thiosemicarbazones are known to be active against different pathogenic microorganisms including Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent of Chagas disease. In the search for new therapeutic drugs against this illness, the complexes [Mn(H4NO2Fo4M)2Cl2] (1), [Mn(H4NO2Ac4M)2Cl2] (2) and [Mn(H4NO2Bz...
