- COMPOUNDS AND METHODS FOR MODULATING ACTIVITY OF CALCIUM RELEASE CHANNELS
-
The present teachings provide compounds of Formulae I and II: and and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, hydrates, complexes, esters, and prodrugs thereof, wherein R1, R1', R2, R2', R3, R3', and X are as defined herein. The present teachings also provide methods of making the compounds of formulae I and II, and methods of treating RyR-associated conditions, disorders, and diseases that include administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula I or II to a subject in need thereof. In addition, the present teachings relate to methods of reducing the open probability of a ryanodine receptor, and methods of reducing Ca2+ release across a ryanodine receptor (e.g., into the cytoplasm of a cell), by contacting a compound of formula I or II with a ryanodine receptor.

- Electrostatic catalysis by ionic aggregates: Scope and limitations of Mg(ClO4)2 as acylation catalyst
-
Alkali and alkaline earth metal perchlorates exhibit electrostatic catalysis in the activation of anhydrides for the acylation reaction. Perchlorates with higher values of the charge-size function of the metal ion exhibit better catalytic activity following the order Mg(ClO4) 2>Ba(ClO4)2>LiClO4. Acylation of structurally diverse phenols, thiols, alcohols, and amines have been carried out with stoichiometric amounts of anhydride at room temperature under solvent free conditions in the presence of catalytic amount of Mg(ClO4) 2. Sterically hindered and electron deficient phenols are efficiently acylated. Acylation with sterically hindered anhydrides such as iso-butyric, pivalic, and benzoic anhydrides are carried out with phenols and alcohols in excellent yields. Acid-sensitive alcohols are acylated in excellent yields without any competitive side reactions.

- Synthesis and in-vitro evaluation of platelet aggregation inhibitory activity of paeonol and its analogues
-
Paeonol (1-(2-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)ethanone) and a series of substituted 1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)ethanone derivatives were synthesized and screened as inhibitors of platelet aggregation. The compounds with the greatest anti-platelet potential among the series tested were 1-(2,5-dihydroxyphenyl)ethanone (65.36% inhibition at 300 μM against 5 μM ADP), paeonol(36.31%), 1-(2-hydroxy-5-methoxyphenyl)ethanone (24.47%), 1-(2-hydroxy-5-nitrophenyl) ethanone (30.40%) and 1-(5-chloro-2-hydroxy-4-methylphenyl)ethanone (24.43%).
