Present study describes the inhibition property of benzo 1,3-diazol 2-(4-{[4-Methyl-6-(1-methyl-1H-1,3-benzodiazol-2-yl)-2-propyl-1H-1,3-benzodiazol-1-yl] methyl} phenyl) benzoic acid (Telmisartan, Cresar-H) on mild steel corrosion in 1 M HCl using weight loss, electrochemical, and surface measu...

A facile, efficient and environment-friendly protocol for the synthesis of 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-3-(1-(phenylimino)ethyl)-2H-pyran-2-one derivatives has been developed by the convenient ultrasound-mediated condensation of amine with dehydroacetic acid. This method provides several advantages over c...

In this work, rice husk ash (RHA), as a natural source of amorphous silica, was used as a support for the immobilization of 1-methyl-3-(trimethoxysilylpropyl)-imidazolium hydrogen sulfate. The immobilized acidic ionic liquid was characterized with a variety of techniques, including infrared spec...

The establishment of the most stable structures of 2-(phenylmethyl)-2-azaspiro[5.11]heptadecane-1,3,7-trione, potential anticancer and antimicrobial drug has been investigated in this work. A detailed interpretation of experimental and calculated IR, UV and NMR spectra were reported. The equilib...

Interaction of 1-(oxiran-2-ylmethyl)-1H-indole-3-carboxaldehyde with primary amines occurs at oxirane moiety and leads to b-aminoalcohols. Quantum-chemical calculations show that these products are more stable than possible alternative Schiff bases arising from aldehyde group of the considered b...

DABCO-mediated Morita–Baylis–Hillman reactions of several 1-substituted-indole-2-carboxaldehydes are disclosed. It was discovered that carboethoxy or tert-butoxycarbonyl groups installed at N-1 undergo cleavage under the reaction conditions to afford 2-substituted indoles. Utility of the N-sub...

Nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) is a versatile treatment reagent that should be utilized in an effective application for nitrate remediation in water. For this purpose, a laboratory-scale continuous-flow system (LSCFS) was developed to evaluate nZVI performance in removal of nitrate in differe...

Microalgae Coelastrella sp. could remove nutrients from anaerobically digested swine wastewater (ADSW) effectively, while its responses to the stress of Cu(II) were not well understood. In this paper, nutrients removal and growth of Coelastrella sp. were investigated at the presence of Cu(II) in...

The thermal degradation of quaternized chitosan–cupric ion compounds in nitrogen was studied by thermogravimetry analysis (TG) and differential thermal analysis (DTA). The effect of cupric ions on the thermal degradation behaviors of quaternized chitosan was discussed. Fourier transform-infrare...

Picolinium tartrate monohydrate (PTM), a novel organic nonlinear optical material was synthesized and bulk crystals were grown from aqueous solution by slow cooling technique. The cell parameters of the grown crystal were found by single and powder X-ray diffraction analyses. The crystalline per...

Retinoic acid (RA), the biologically active metabolite of vitamin A, is used medicinally for the treatment of hyperproliferative diseases including dermatological conditions and cancer. The antiproliferative effects of RA have been well documented as well as the limitations owing to toxicity and...

(5Z)-7-[3-endo-[(4-iodophenylsulfonyl) amino]bicyclo[2.2.1]-hep-2-exo-yl] heptenoic acid (IS-145) was characterized on its suitability for the study of thromboxane A2 (TXA2) receptor. Both the I-125 and I-127 analogs are very potent TXA2 antagonist. The I-127 analog interacted with the receptor ...

In this study, the first synthesis of axially disubstituted silicon naphthalocyanines bearing electropolymerizable bis[(4-{3-[3-(dimethylamino)phenoxy]propoxy}phenyl)metoxy], bis[(4-{3-[3-(diethylamino)phenoxy]propoxy}phenyl)metoxy] units has been reported. Aggregation behavior of silicon naphth...

We report the synthesis of novel, potentially hypnotic fluorine-substituted phenyl acetate derivatives. We describe the structure–activity relationship that led us to the promising derivative: ethyl 2-(4-(2-(diethylamino)-2-oxoethoxy)-5-ethoxy-2-fluorophenyl) acetate (55). The unique pharmacolo...

Herein, we report on work towards the development of a new strategy for the synthesis of rare and biologically interesting indolizin-5(3H)-ones, which is based around the use of ring-closing metathesis to construct the carbocyclic ring system. This study has provided insights into the general st...

Some studies were developed to investigate the potential of using recycled powder (RP), obtained from the construction and demolition (C&D) wastes, to partially replace the cement in concrete, whereas the chloride permeability of preparing recycled powder concrete (RPC) has not been investigated...

The damage properties of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates exposed to combined lightning components D and C were explored by standardized artificial lightning tests, and then evaluated by visual inspection and ultrasonic scan. To interpret the heating mechanism of CFRPs under the ...

We determine the group of reductive cohomological degree 3 invariants of all split semisimple groups of types B, C, and D. We also present a complete description of such cohomological invariants. As an application, we show that the group of degree 3 unramified cohomology of the classifying space...

BackgroundActive recruitment of inflammatory cells into tumors may be vital for antitumor immunity in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) after photodynamic therapy. Chemokines play important roles in inflammatory cell recruitment. Moreover, C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 13 (CXCL13) is thoug...

Two previously undescribed isoflavones, erysacleuxin C (1) and erysacleuxin D (2), together with seven known compounds (3–9), were isolated and identified from the EtOAc extract of the twigs of Erythrina sacleuxii Hua (Leguminosae). The structures of the isolated compounds were determined on th...
