In a mixture of trifluoroacetic acid and water, the combination of metallic palladium and copper chloride catalyzes the hydroxylation of remote primary C-H bonds of a variety of acids, alcohols, and aliphatic halides, in the presence of carbon monoxide and dioxygen. Experiments suggest that the principal role of metallic palladium is to generate hydrogen peroxide in situ and that the species responsible for the remote hydroxylation of the substrate by hydrogen peroxide is copper chloride. The unusual preference for the catalytic hydroxylation of primary C-H bonds was also found in an experiment involving competition between ethane and either cumene or p- isopropylbenzoic acid: even though the solution concentration of ethane was significantly lower than the competing substrate, the vast majority of the oxidation product (ethanol) was derived from ethane. In the reactions studied, acetic acid and formic acid were formed through C-C cleavage steps. An examination of the site of C-C cleavage in propionic acid indicated that both C-C bonds were being broken.

Irciniasulfonic acid was obtained from a marine sponge of Ircinia sp. Spectroscopic and chemical analyses revealed its structure consists of three different kinds of acids, i.e. common fatty acids, a novel unsaturated branched C-10 fatty acid and an isethionic acid. Irciniasulfonic acid and deacyl irciniasulfonic acid reverse multidrug resistance in human carcinoma cells caused by overexpression of membrane glycoprotein.

Page/Page column 27, (2010/02/14)
The present invention relates to methods for treating cancer comprising utilizing a combination of signal transduction inhibitors. More specifically, the present invention relates to combinations of so called cell cycle inhibitors with mitogen stimulated kinase signal transduction inhibitors, more specifically combinations of CDK inhibitors with mitogen stimulated kinase signal transduction inhibitors, more preferably MEK inhibitors. Other embodiments of the invention relate to additional combinations of the aforesaid combinations with standard anti-cancer agents such as cytotoxic agents, palliatives and antiangiogenics. Most specifically this invention relates to combinations of 6-acetyl-8-cyclopentyl-5-methyl-2-(5-piperazin-1-yl-pyridin-2-ylamino)-8H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-one including salt forms, which is a selective cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) inhibitor, in combination with one or more MEK inhibitors, most preferably N-[(R)-2,3-dihydroxy-propoxy]-3,4-difluoro-2-(2-fluoro-4-iodo-phenylamino)-benzamide. The aforementioned combinations are useful for treating inflammation and cell proliferative diseases such as cancer and restenosis.
