furan/dental caries

An oxa-analogue of 5,10,15-triarylcorrole, i.e., 5,10,15-triaryl-21,23-dioxacorrole (21,23-O(2)Cor)H, where two pyrrole rings are replaced by furan moieties, has been produced by condensation of 2,5-bis(arylhydroxymethyl)furan, 2-phenylhydroxymethylfuran, and pyrrole. 2-Phenylhydroxymethylfuran

The title compound, [Fe(C₄₄H₂₄N₈Cl₄)(CN)₂][K₂(C₁₈H₃₆N₂O₆)₂]·2C₄H₈O was synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction as well as FTIR and

2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), the model compound of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and furans, is a potent toxicant with the ability to hamper development. Accidental exposure to TCDD has been linked with various developmental dental aberrations in humans, and experimentally it has

Bis-imidacloprid (bis-IMI) analogues with suitable alkylene spacers have plant-systemic insecticidal properties. The alkylene-tethered bis-IMI binds in a unique mode to the insect nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) wherein the chloropyridine moieties are embraced by two distinct and distant

A furan-based hexaazamacrocycle encapsulates a sulfate anion in its cavity showing strong affinity and selectivity for sulfate in water over a wide range of inorganic anions. The DFT calculations demonstrate that the receptor provides binding sites as hydrogen bonding donors and electrostatic

Using a recently developed quadratic response methodology for the calculation of frequency-dependent third-order properties of molecules in solution, we investigate the Buckingham birefringence of furan, thiophene, and selenophene in cyclohexane solution. These systems are chosen since accurate

The title compound, C(46)H(24)F(12)O(8)·C(4)H(8)O, consists of a cyclic aryl ester dimer and a tetra-hydro-furan mol-ecule. In the structure of the cyclic dimer, one carbonyl group stretches above the cavity and the other below.

The objective of this study was to prepare and characterize complexes of 2-(2-nitrovinyl) furan (G-0) with 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) and sulfobutyl ether-β-cyclodextrin (SBE-β-CD). The solid inclusion complexes were prepared using kneading and freeze-drying methods. Phase solubility

Novel molecular photochemistry can be developed by combining high pressure and laser irradiation. For studying such high-pressure effects on the confined electronic ground and excited states, we extend the PCM (polarizable continuum model) SAC (symmetry-adapted cluster) and SAC-CI (SAC-configuration

The injection of platelet-activating factor (PAF) into the rat pleural cavity resulted in a marked increase in the number of eosinophils, neutrophils and mononuclear cells recovered from pleural washings after 6 hr. Within 24 hr, neutrophils and mononuclear cell counts returned to control values,

The first examples of porphyrin analogues with four different core atoms have been synthesized from an oxacarbatripyrrin intermediate. Acid-catalyzed condensation of the tripyrrin analogue with pyrrole or furan dialdehydes gave 22-oxa- and 22,23-dioxacarbaporphyrins, while reactions with furan,

OBJECTIVE Discovery of novel series of colchicine binding site inhibitors (CBSIs). METHODS Isoxazoline 3a-d, pyrazoline 4a-b, 7a-f and 8a-f, cyclohexenone 9a-b and 10a-b or pyridine derivatives 11a-b were synthesized and evaluated for their inhibition of tubulin polymerization and cytotoxicity. Most

The mol-ecule of O-acetyl-swietenolide, C(29)H(36)O(9), isolated from the seeds of Swietenia macrophylla, features four six-membered rings connected together in the shape of a bowl; one of the inner rings adopts a twisted chair conformation owing to the C=C double bond. The furyl substitutent is

A comparative study of the halide and benzoate anion binding properties of a series of phenyl, pyrrole, and furan-strapped calix[4]pyrroles has been carried out. These receptors, which have previously been shown to bind the chloride anion (Yoon et al., Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. 47(27):5038-5042, 2008),

On the basis of our earlier molecular docking analysis, we designed and synthesized 5-((arylfuran/1H-pyrrol-2-yl)methylene)-2-thioxo-3-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)thiazolidin-4-ones (12a-o) as HIV-1 entry inhibitors. Compounds 12a-o effectively inhibited infection by both laboratory-adapted and
