Design, synthesis and anticancer evaluation of novel spirobenzo[h]chromene and spirochromane derivatives with dual EGFR and B-RAF inhibitory activities
A novel series of spirobenzo[h]chromene and spirochromane derivatives was designed, synthesized and evaluated as potential anticancer agents against MCF-7 (human breast carcinoma), HT-29 (human colorectal adenocarcinoma) and A549 (human lung carcinoma) cell lines using MTT assay. Eight compounds 7, 8e, 13a-e and 16 showed a better anticancer activity than that of sorafenib, the multi-kinase inhibitor with IC50 values between 1.78 and 5.47 μM or erlotinib with IC50 values over 20 μM. Representative compounds 8e, 13c and 16 were selected for further mechanistic investigation via EGFR, B-RAF and tubulin polymerization assays. Compound 16 was the most potent EGFR inhibitor (IC50 = 1.2 μM), yet compounds 8e, 13c and 16 displayed moderate tubulin polymerization inhibition effects. Molecular docking studies of those compounds revealed their possible binding modes into the active sites of both EGFR and B-RAF kinases. The newly developed compounds represent a therapeutically promising approach for the treatment of different types of cancer.

Design and synthesis of novel pyrazole-phenyl semicarbazone derivatives as potential α-glucosidase inhibitor: Kinetics and molecular dynamics simulation study
A series of novel pyrazole-phenyl semicarbazone derivatives were designed, synthesized, and screened for in vitro α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. Given the importance of hydrogen bonding in promoting the α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, pharmacophore modification was established. The docking results rationalized the idea of the design. All newly synthesized compounds exhibited excellent in vitro yeast α-glucosidase inhibition (IC50 values in the range of 65.1–695.0 μM) even much more potent than standard drug acarbose (IC50 = 750.0 μM). Among them, compounds 8o displayed the most potent α-glucosidase inhibitory activity (IC50 = 65.1 ± 0.3 μM). Kinetic study of compound 8o revealed that it inhibited α-glucosidase in a competitive mode (Ki = 87.0 μM). Limited SAR suggested that electronic properties of substitutions have little effect on inhibitory potential of compounds. Cytotoxic studies demonstrated that the active compounds (8o, 8k, 8p, 8l, 8i, and 8a) compounds are also non-cytotoxic. The binding modes of the most potent compounds 8o, 8k, 8p, 8l and 8i was studied through in silico docking studies. Molecular dynamic simulations have been performed in order to explain the dynamic behavior and structural changes of the systems by the calculation of the root mean square deviation (RMSD) and root mean square fluctuation (RMSF).

Design, synthesis, and biological activity of novel semicarbazones as potent Ryanodine receptor1 inhibitors of Alzheimer's disease
Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are important ligand-gated Ca2+ channels; their excessive activation leads to Ca2+ leakage in the sarcoplasmic reticulum that may cause neurological diseases. In this study, three series of novel potent RyR1 inhibitors based on dantrolene and bearing semicarbazone and imidazolyl moieties were designed and synthesized, and their biological activity was evaluated. Using a single-cell calcium imaging method, the calcium overload inhibitory activities of 26 target compounds were tested in the R614C cell line, using dantrolene as a positive control. The preliminary investigation showed that compound 12a suppressed Ca2+ release as evidenced by store overload-induced Ca2+release (SOICR) (31.5 ± 0.1%, 77.2 ± 0.1%, 93.7 ± 0.2%) at 0.1 μM, 3 μM and 10 μM, respectively. Docking simulation results showed that compound 12a could bind at the active site of the RyR1 protein. The Morris water-maze test showed that compound 12a significantly improved the cognitive behavior of AD-model mice. Further studies on the structural optimization of this series of derivatives are currently underway in our laboratory.

Design, Synthesis and Antifungal Activity of Benzofuran and Its Analogues
Benzofuran has antifungal activity as the inhibitor of N-myristoyltransferase. Twenty-nine novel benzofuran-semicarbazide hybrids were designed and synthesized by principle of drug combinationatory. On this basis, the benzofuran ring was simplified to a resorcinol structure, and sixteen novel 1,3-dialkoxybenzene-semicarbazide hybrids were designed and synthesized. All structures of the target compounds were characterized by HRMS and NMR. The in vitro antifungal activity of target compounds was evaluated using the microdilution broth method against eight strains of pathogenic fungi with fluconazole as positive control. According to the results of the target compounds, structure-activity relationship (SAR) is summarized. The inhibitory activity against the tested strains of simplified compounds (K01—K16) has different levels improvement compared with compounds Z01—Z29. K01—K16 showed significant antifungal activities against A. fumigatus, C. kruseii, and sensitive C. albicans 5314. Notably, compounds Z20, Z22, K10, K11 and K16 also displayed different activities against two fluconazole-resistance strains that were isolated from AIDS patients. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) values against fluconazole-resistant strains were in the range of 2—8 μg/mL and 4—32μg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, molecular docking was performed to investigate the binding affinities and interaction modes between the target compound and N-myristoyltransferase.

Highly Regioselective Carbamoylation of Electron-Deficient Nitrogen Heteroarenes with Hydrazinecarboxamides
The use of hydrazinecarboxamides as a new class of carbamoylating agents has been established through the dehydrazinative Minisci reaction of electron-deficient nitrogen heteroarenes. A wide range of electron-deficient nitrogen heteroarenes, including isoquinoline, quinoline, pyridine, phenanthridine, quinoxaline, and phthalazine, underwent copper/acid-catalyzed oxidative carbamoylation with hydrazinecarboxamide hydrochlorides to afford structurally diverse nitrogen-heteroaryl carboxamides as single regioisomers in moderate to excellent yields. The functional group tolerance was substantially demonstrated in the direct carbamoylation of quinine obviating multistep sequences involving protecting groups and prefunctionalization of the heterocycle.

Antiurease, antiphosphodiesterase and antiglycation studies of Pd(II) complexes with monodentate hydrazides
The present study was aimed to synthesize and characterize a series of Pd(II)-benzohydrazide complexes with subsequent high throughput screening to seek their effects as enzyme inhibitors and antiglycating agents. Based on complete characterization via elemental (CHN, Pd) analysis, physical (conductivity, magnetic moment) measurements and spectral (FT-IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR) techniques, all Pd(II) complexes were identified as diamagnetic, neutral and orienting in trans square planar geometry with general formula [PdL2Cl2]. The benzohydrazide (L) in these complexes depicts monodentate behavior, providing terminal amino nitrogen as a donor atom. Compared to inactive precursors (free benzohydrazides and Pd2+), almost all Pd(II) complexes showed in vitro antiglycation activity, illustrating the potential role of resulting complexes in the suppression of diabetes and related disorders. The presence of free carbonyl group in complexes has been recognized as possible cause of antiglycation. This study also indicated Pd(II) compounds as far more superior inhibitors of urease and phosphodiesterase-I than parent ligands; many of them exhibited inhibitions equivalent or even greater than the standard inhibitors (thiourea, urease; EDTA, phosphodiesterase), which shows their potential use in future in the control of peptic ulcer and arthritis, respectively. The structure activity relationship (SAR) study demonstrated that complexation, steric hindrance, position of substituents, electron density around metal centre, hydrogen bonding and coordination mode of complexed ligands play prime role in modulating the biological activities of complexes.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel 4-phenoxy-6,7-disubstituted quinolines possessing (thio)semicarbazones as c-Met kinase inhibitors
In continuing our efforts to identify small molecules able to inhibit c-Met kinase, three series of novel 6,7-disubstituted-4-phenoxyquinoline derivatives (23a-w, 26a-d and 30a-d) bearing (thio)semicarbazone scaffold were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their cytotoxicity. The biological data revealed that most compounds exhibited moderate-to-excellent activity against HT-29, MKN-45, A549 cancer cell lines and relative poor potency toward MDA-MB-231 cell as well as hardly any cytotoxicity in normal PBL cell. Eleven compounds were further examined for their inhibitory activity against c-Met kinase and three compounds (23h, 23n and 26a) demonstrated good inhibitory activity. This work resulted in the discovery of a potent c-Met inhibitor 23n, bearing 2-hydroxy-3-allylphenyl group at R2 moiety, as a valuable lead molecule, which possessed remarkable cytotoxicity and high selectivity against A549 and HT-29 cell lines with IC50 values of 11 nM and 27 nM. Besides, it displayed excellent c-Met kinase inhibition on a single-digital nanomolar level (IC50 = 1.54 nM). Meanwhile, the results from preliminarily in vivo study reflected that compound 23n showed promising overall PK profiles, consistent with the efficacy in both MKN-45 and HT-29 tumor xenograft mice model. These results clearly indicated that compound 23n is a potent and highly selective c-Met inhibitor and its favorable in vitro and in vivo profiles warrant further investigation.

Synthesis of N-aryl and N-arylcarbamoylamino derivatives of 1,3-diazinane-5-carboxamide and their activity against glioblastoma LN-229 cell line
Six structural motifs based on the initial (lead) structure of merbarone were designed, prepared, and tested against the glioblastoma LN-229 cell line. Three different structural moieties were modified in the search for optimal glioblastoma activity: the 1,3-diazinane moiety, the aryl moiety, and the heteroatom linker. Calculated molecular descriptors such as lipophilicity (C log P), acidic strength (calculated pKa), and polar surface area (PSA) were used to design a diverse structural library of these compounds. From six different structural motifs and 136 compounds, a handful of examples with moderate (100 μg/ml), good (10 μg/ml) and excellent (1 μg/ml) glioblastoma activity were elucidated.

Design, synthesis and anticancer activity of dihydropyrimidinone-semicarbazone hybrids as potential human DNA ligase 1 inhibitors
A series of new dihydropyrimidinone-semicarbazone hybrids were successfully synthesised by integrating regioselective multicomponent reaction with the pharmacophore hybridization approach. All the synthesised compounds were evaluated for their hLig1 inhibition potency and most of them were found to be good to moderately active. Out of the tested derivatives, compound 6f showed selective anti-proliferative activity against HepG2 cells in a dose-dependent manner with an IC50 value of 10.07 ± 1.2. It also reduced cell survival at ≤20 μM concentration. Further, analysis of treated HepG2 cell lysates by western blot assay showed increased γ-H2AX levels and upregulation of p53, leading to apoptosis. In silico docking results explain the binding modes of compound 6f to the DNA-binding domain of hLig1 enzyme thereby preventing its nick sealing activity. In addition, the favourable pharmacokinetic properties suggest that this new class of hLig1 inhibitors could be promising leads for further drug development.

Chemistry and antioxidant properties of titanium(IV) complexes
Abstract The synthesis of titanium(IV) complexes with biologically active hydrazide ligands has been carried out. The complexes were characterized by spectroscopic methods (IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR), elemental analysis and conductivity studies. These studies suggest bidentate coordination of the ligands through carbonyl oxygen and primary amine nitrogen, resulting in octahedral geometries. Hydrazides with pyridyl substituents displayed 1:2 metal-to-ligand ratio, and hydrazides with imino substituents exhibited 1:3 metal-to-ligand ratio resulting in an outer sphere complex. The remaining complexes displayed inner sphere coordination with 1:1 metal-to-ligand ratio. These complexes exhibit varying degrees of radical scavenging properties against DPPH, superoxide and nitric oxide free radicals. The free ligands showed inhibition against DPPH but were inactive against superoxide and nitric oxide free radicals. The structure-activity relationships of the complexes are discussed.

Studies on chemistry, spectroscopy and antioxidant activities of chromium(III)-hydrazide complexes
Acid hydrazides are vital chemical entities due to their biological activities. Upon complexation with certain metal ions, their biological activities are known to be positively enhanced. The present work describes the synthesis of Cr(III)-hydrazide complexes, and their structural, spectroscopic and antioxidant properties to reveal their chemistry and biochemistry. Physical (magnetic moment, conductivity measurements), analytical (C, H, N and Cr analysis) and spectral (EI-Mass, FTIR) techniques are used for the characterization of synthesized compounds. All Cr(III)-hydrazide complexes exhibit octahedral geometry with general formula [Cr(L)2(H2O)2]Cl3. In these complexes, the hydrazide ligands are coordinated via carbonyl oxygen and terminal amino nitrogen in a bidentate fashion. All Cr(III)-hydrazide complexes were screened for in vitro diphenyldipicryl hydrazine (DPPH), superoxide dismutase and nitric oxide radical scavenging activities. Majority of the Cr(III)-hydrazide complexes were found to be more potent scavengers than their uncoordinated hydrazide ligands. This study demonstrates an interesting structure-activity relationship (SAR) which is presented here.

Isatin N-phenylsemicarbazone: Effect of substituents and concentration on anion sensing selectivity and sensitivity
The effect of substituent and concentration on anion sensing selectivity and sensitivity of nine new easily synthesized isatin N-phenylsemicarbazone E-isomer sensors IIIa-XIa was investigated. The substantial difference between the association constants for IIIa-XIa interaction with strongly and weakly basic anions allows detection of F- or CH3COO- anions even at high weakly basic anion excess. Substitution in position 5- of the isatin ring and para-substitution on the phenyl ring in the phenylsemicarbazide chain influence sensor:anion complex stoichiometry and thus also sensor sensitivity. Detection limits of 3-4 × 10-7 mol dm-3 for F- and CH3COO- anions by sensors IVa and Va bearing electron-withdrawing substituents are among the lowest published detection limits for these anions in organic solvents. The high selectivity and sensitivity of sensor VIa allows confident F- detection at tolerated fluoride drinking-water level. The solution dilution leads to a dramatic change in sensor selectivity. Consequently, one E-isomer can be used to sense both strongly and weakly basic anions. On the other side, higher sensor solution concentrations increase the F- and CH3COO- anion detection range, similar to the additional Z-isomer utilization. This journal is

Anodic cleavage of several ketone N-phenylsemicarbazones into methyl N-phenylcarbamate and the corresponding dimethyl acetals
Several ketone N-phenylsemicarbazones were electrooxidized in the presence of potassium iodide and a base using methanol as the solvent to give nearly commensurate amounts of methyl N-phenylcarbamate and the corresponding dimethyl acetals. Continuous evolution of gaseous nitrogen was observed from the anolyte during the electrooxidation. The reactions were carried out under very mild reaction conditions and are presumed to proceed through a four-electron oxidation process, in which the iodide ion plays an important role as an electron carrier.

Synthesis, spectroscopic and radical scavenging studies of palladium(II)-hydrazide complexes
In present study, a series of palladium(II) complexes with biologically active hydrazide ligands have been synthesized, characterized and screened for their antioxidant (superoxide and DPPH radical scavenging) properties. Spectral studies (FT-IR, EI-mass, 13C and 1H NMR spectroscopy) and physico-chemical measurements including elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility and conductivity measurements represented square planar structure for all complexes. Substituted and unsubstituted benzohydrazides (1-4) have shown monodentate behavior forming complexes of general formula [PdL 2Cl2]. However, pyridine-carbohydrazides (5 and 6) were coordinated in bidentate fashion of [PdLCl2] general formula producing stable five-membered chelate ring. All palladium complexes were found to be considerably more potent inhibitors of DPPH free radical compared to free hydrazides. These complexes are even stronger DPPH scavengers than standard antioxidant propyl gallate. The complexes have also shown good superoxide scavenging ability compared to inactive free hydrazides, however complexes are weaker superoxide scavengers than ascorbic acid, a standard superoxide inhibitor. An interesting structure activity relationship has been evaluated.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of 4-phenoxy-6,7-disubstituted quinolines possessing semicarbazone scaffolds as selective c-Met inhibitors
Novel quinoline derivatives bearing acyclic semicarbazones were prepared and their chemical structures as well as the relative stereochemistry were confirmed. All the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their c-Met kinase inhibitory activity and their cytotoxicity against the cell lines HT-29, MKN-45, and MDA-MB-231 in vitro. Several potent compounds were further evaluated against A549 cells. Most compounds displayed moderate to excellent activity, and the structure-activity relationship studies identified the most promising compound 35 as a selective c-Met kinase inhibitor (IC50 = 4.3 nM). Compound 35 showed a 3.5- and 18.8-fold increase in cytotoxicity in vitro against HT-29 and A549 cells, respectively, compared to that of foretinib. Poor off-target effects of compound 35 were further confirmed by the antiproliferative activity against the c-Met inhibition less sensitive MDA-MB-231 cell line (IC50 = 0.77 μM). Copyright

Design, synthesis, and potential CNS activity of some new bioactive 1-(4-substituted-phenyl)-3-(4-oxo-2-methyl- 4H-quinazolin-3-yl)-urea
Twelve new 1-(4-substituted-phenyl)-3-(4-oxo- 2-methyl-4H-quinazolin-3-yl)- urea were synthesized and screened for anticonvulsant, CNS depressant, and sedativehypnotic activity. After i.p. injection to mice at doses of 30, 100, and 300 mg/kg body weight 2,3-Disubstitutedquinazolin- 4(3H)-one were examined in the maximal electroshock-induced seizures (MES) and subcutaneous pentylenetetrazole (scPTZ) induced seizure models in mice. Spectroscopic data and elemental analysis were consistent with the newly synthesized compounds. The neurotoxicity was assessed using the rotorod method. M3, M4 and M10 were found to be active in both MES screen and scPTZ screen at 0.5 h. All except M11 showed more than 44% decrease in locomotor activity after 1 h of compound administration via actophotometer screen. CNS-depressant activity screened with the help of the forced swim method resulted into some potent compounds. Except for M6 and M11 other tested compounds were found to exhibit potent CNS depressants activity as indicated by increased immobility time. It can be concluded that newly synthesized compounds possessed sedative-hypnotic and CNS depressant activities. Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2010.

In an attempt to develop novel antifungal agents, our previously synthesized phenoxyalkylpiperazine triazole derivatives were used as lead structures for further optimization. By means of structure-based bioisosterism, triazolone was used as a new bioisostere of oxygen atom. This type of bioisosteric replacement can improve the water solubility without loss of hydrogen-bonding interaction with the target enzyme. A series of triazolone-containing triazoles were rationally designed and synthesized. As compared with fluconazole, several compounds showed higher antifungal activity with broader spectrum, suggesting their potential for further evaluations.

Isatin-β-thiosemicarbazones as potent herpes simplex virus inhibitors
A series of isatin-β-thiosemicarbazones have been designed and evaluated for antiviral activity against herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and type 2 (HSV-2) in a plaque reduction assay. Their cytotoxicity was examined using human rhabdomyosarcoma cells (RD cells). Several derivatives of isatin-β-thiosemicarbazone exhibited significant and selective antiviral activity with low cytotoxicity. It was found that the thiourea group at thiosemicarbazone and the NH functionality at isatin were essential for their antiherpetic activity. The synthesis and structure-activity relationship studies are presented.

Menthone semicarbazides and thiosemicarbazides as anticonvulsant agents
A series of novel (±) 3-menthone semicarbazides (1-7) and thiosemicarbazides (8-14) were synthesized using an appropriate synthetic route and characterized by thin layer chromatography and spectral analysis. The anticonvulsant activity of synthesized compounds was established after intraperitoneal administration in three seizure models in mice which include maximal electroshock seizure (MES), subcutaneous pentylene tetrazole (scPTZ) induced seizure and minimal neurotoxicity test. Seven compounds exhibited protection in both models and N1 - (4-fluorophenyl) - N4- (menth-3-one) semicarbazide (4) emerged as the most active compound with MES ED50 of 44.15mg/kg and scPTZ ED50 of 38.68mg/kg at 0.25h duration. These compounds were found to elevate γ-amino butyric acid (GABA) levels in the midbrain region, thus indicating that (±) 3-menthone semicarbazides could be considered as a lead molecule in designing of a potent anticonvulsant drug.

Synthesis, anticonvulsant and CNS depressant activity of some new bioactive 1-(4-substituted-phenyl)-3-(4-oxo-2-phenyl/ethyl-4H-quinazolin-3-yl)-urea
Several new 1-(4-substituted-phenyl)-3-(4-oxo-2-phenyl/ethyl-4H-quinazolin-3-yl)-urea were synthesized and screened for anticonvulsant, CNS depressant and sedative-hypnotic activity in the mice. After i.p. injection to mice at doses of 30, 100, and 300 mg/kg body weight synthesized compounds were examined in the maximal electroshock induced seizures (MES) and subcutaneous pentylenetetrazole (scPTZ) induced seizure models in mice. Spectroscopic data and elemental analysis were consistent with the newly synthesized compounds. The neurotoxicity was assessed using the rotorod method. Compounds E1, E6, E9, E12, P3, P4 and P6 were found to be active in the MES screen whereas E1, P4, P6 and P11 were found to be active in the scPTZ screen. All except E6, E11 and P6 showed more than 50% decrease in locomotor activity at 1 h of compound administration via actophotometer screen. CNS depressant activity screened with the help of the forced swim method resulted into some potent compounds. All the compounds were found to exhibit potent CNS depressants activity as indicated by increased immobility time. It can be concluded that newly synthesized compounds possessed promising CNS activities.

N-(Acetamido)thiourea based simple neutral hydrogen-bonding receptors for anions
N-(Acetamido)-N′-phenylthioureas (4-6) were found to be efficient anion receptors with higher anion affinity than their N-benzamido-N′- phenylthiourea counterparts (1 and 2). The N′-phenylthiourea moiety in 4-6 was shown to be the chromophore with an absorption maximum at ca. 270 nm. It was found that, in the presence of anions, the absorption at ca. 270 nm of 4-6 (except 5f) in acetonitrile (MeCN) was blue shifted and enhanced while a red-shifted shoulder appeared at ca. 295 nm, together with an isosbestic point at ca. 240 nm. The 1:1 anion binding constants of 4-6, for example at 10 6-107 M-1 order of magnitude for AcO - in MeCN, were found to be higher than those of 1 and 2, although the acidity of the thioureido -NH protons in 4-6 is lower than that in 1 and 2. 1H NMR data indicates that the N-N single bond in 4-6 is twisted but less than that in 1 and 2. A conformation change at the N-N single bond of 4-6 was suggested to occur upon anion binding which leads to a planar hydrogen-bonding network in the anion binding complex in which a charge transfer takes place with the N-acyl moiety being the electron acceptor. Variations in the CD signals of a proline derivative 6 bearing a chiral center in the N-amido moiety provide direct evidence for this conformation change upon its binding with anions in MeCN. The amplified effect of substituent X at the N′-phenyl ring of 5 on the anion binding constant supports the conclusion of anion-binding switched charge transfer in the anion binding complex. 1H NMR and absorption titrations for 5 indicated that the anion-receptor interaction was of a hydrogen-bonding nature until the N′-phenyl substituent X is as electron-withdrawing as m-CF3 (5e). With X being the more electron-withdrawing p-NO2 (5f), deprotonation of the thioureido -NH occurs in the presence of anion. Results reported here confirm that N-amidothioureas derived from both N-aliphatic and N-aromatic amides can in general be a family of efficient hydrogen-bonding receptors, with the aliphatic N-amido derivatives being more efficient. This provides a wider structural diversity for designing thiourea-based functional molecules such as anion receptors and organocatalysts. Preliminary experiments confirm that 6 could catalyse efficiently the reduction of nitrostyrene in CH2Cl2 and MeCN.

Controlled release of volatile aldehydes and ketones from dynamic mixtures generated by reversible hydrazone formation
Delivery systems generated by reversible hydrazone formation from hydrazine derivatives (see Fig. 1) and carbonyl compounds in H2O efficiently increase the long-lastingness of volatile aldehydes and ketones (R 1R2C=O) in various perfumery applications. The hydrazones are usually obtained in an (E) configuration at the imine double bond (NHN=C) and, in the case of aliphatic acylhydrazones R′CO-NH-N=CR 1R2 (R′ = alkyl), as syn and anti conformers with respect to the amide bond (CO-NHN). An average free-energy barrier of ca. 78kJ/mol was determined for the amide-bond rotation by variable-temperature 1H-NMR measurements (Fig. 2). In the presence of H2O, the hydrazone formation is entirely reversible, reaching an equilibrium composed of the hydrazine derivative, the carbonyl compound, and the corresponding hydrazone. Kinetic measurements carried out by UV/VIS spectroscopy showed that the same equilibrium was reached for the formation and hydrolysis of the hydrazone. Rate constants are strongly pH-dependent and increase with decreasing pH (Table 1). The influence of the hydrazine structure on the rate constants is less pronounced than the pH effect, and the presence of surfactants reduces the rate of equilibration (Tables 1 and 3). The full reversibility of the hydrazone formation allows to prepare dynamic mixtures by simple addition of a hydrazine derivative to several carbonyl compounds. Dynamic headspace analysis on dry cotton showed that the presence of a hydrazine derivative significantly increased the headspace concentrations of the different carbonyl compounds as compared to the reference sample without hydrazine (Table 4). The release of the volatiles was found to be efficient for fragrances with high vapor pressures and low H2O solubility. Furthermore, a special long-lasting effect was obtained for the release of ketones. The simplicity of generating dynamic mixtures combined with the high efficiency for the release of volatiles makes these systems particularly interesting for practical applications and will certainly influence the development of delivery systems in other areas such as the pharmaceutical or agrochemical industry.

N6-cyclopentyl-2-(3-phenylaminocarbonyltriazene-1-yl)adenosine (TCPA), a very selective agonist with high affinity for the human adenosine A1 receptor
Four subtypes of adenosine receptors are currently known, that is, A1, A2A, A2B, and A3 receptors. Interestingly, quite substantial species differences exist especially between human and rat A3 receptors. As a result, ligands such as CCPA, which are very selective for the rat A1 receptor versus the human A3 receptor, are substantially less selective when the human A1 and A3 receptors are compared. New 2-substituted and 2,N6-disubstituted adenosines were synthesized, and their affinities for the human adenosine A1, A2A, A2B, and A3 receptors were determined. Although large substituents on the C2-position are generally thought to yield adenosine A2A receptor selective ligands, the reported series of 2-triazeno-substituted adenosines had a very high affinity for the A1 receptor. For example, 2-(3-phenylaminocarbonyltriazene-1-yl)adenosine had an affinity of 6.1 ± 1.3 nM for the human adenosine A1 receptor. Introduction of a diphenethyl substituent at the N6-position of this compound resulted in a high-affinity agonist, 3.1 ± 0.9 nM, for the human adenosine A1 receptor with 316- and 45-fold selectivity versus the human A2A and human A3 receptors, respectively. The most selective, high-affinity human adenosine A1 receptor agonist was the disubstituted compound N6-cyclopentyl-2-(3-phenylaminocarbonyltriazene-1-yl)adenosine (TCPA). TCPA had an affinity of 2.8 ± 0.8 nM for the human adenosine A1 receptor and was 75-fold and 214-fold selective versus the human A2A and human A3 receptors, respectively. In addition, TCPA was a full agonist and inhibited the forskolin-induced cAMP production of CHO cells stably transfected with the human adenosine A1 receptor with an IC50 of 1.5 ± 0.5 nM.

Twofold ring cleavage of 2,3,5,6-tetrahydro-10bH-oxazolo[2,3-a]isoquinoline with salts of hydroxylamine derivatives
Contrary to literature the reaction of the cyclic carbinolamine ether 1 with hydroxylamine hydrochloride don't give the N-hydroxyaminal hydrochloride 2 · HCl, but the ring opened E-oxime amine hydrochloride 3 · HCl. The structure is proved with NMR- and UV-spectroscopic methods. Similar products 11 · HCl - 15 · HCl and 18 · HCl/19 · HCl are available from salts of hydroxylamine ethers and semicarbazides. The reactivity of 1 and the stability of the products are investigated. Johann Ambrosius Barth 1996.
