Synthesis, Characterization, Catalytic Activity, and DFT Calculations of Zn(II) Hydrazone Complexes
(MDPI, 2020)
Two new Zn(II) complexes with tridentate hydrazone-based ligands (condensation products of 2-acetylthiazole) were synthesized and characterized by infrared (IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and single ...
Newly Synthesized Fluorinated Cinnamylpiperazines Possessing Low In Vitro MAO-B Binding
(MDPI, 2020)
Herein, we report on the synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of ten novel fluorinated cinnamylpiperazines as potential monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) ligands. The designed derivatives consist of either cinnamyl or ...
X-ray crystal structure of 10β-hydroxy-4β,5β-epoxyestr-1-en3,17-dione and antitumor activity of its congeners
(MDPI, 1999)
Based on the biological properties of epoxyquinols from natural sources, the title compound was synthesised as a potential antitumor agent. Its molecular structure was partially confirmed by NMR studies. The detailed ...
Antioxidants of Edible Mushrooms
(MDPI, 2015)
Oxidative stress caused by an imbalanced metabolism and an excess of reactive oxygen species (ROS) lead to a range of health disorders in humans. Our endogenous antioxidant defense mechanisms and our dietary intake of ...
NaY zeolite: A useful catalyst for nitrile hydrolysis
(Molecular Diversity Preservation International, Basel, 2000)
The NaY zeolite catalysed hydrolysis of nitriles to primary amides is reported. It is found that aryl nitriles with strong electron-withdrawing substituents and cyanopyridines are readily hydrolysed in the water suspension, ...
Chelate coordination compounds as a new class of high-energy materials: The case of nitro-bis(acetylacetonato) complexes
(MDPI, 2021)
The existence of areas of strongly positive electrostatic potential in the central regions of the molecular surface of high-energy molecules is a strong indicator that these compounds are very sensitive towards detonation. ...
Antioxidant Activity of Selected Polyphenolics in Yeast Cells: The Case Study of Montenegrin Merlot Wine
(MDPI, 2018)
Screens of antioxidant activity (AA) of various natural products have been a focus of the research community worldwide. This work aimed to differentiate selected samples of Merlot wines originated from Montenegro, with ...
GC-FID-MS Based Metabolomics to Access Plum Brandy Quality
(MDPI, 2021)
Plum brandy (Slivovitz (en); Šljivovica(sr)) is an alcoholic beverage that is increasingly consumed all over the world. Its quality assessment has become of great importance. In our study, the main volatiles and aroma ...
Synthesis, Biological Evaluation and Docking Studies of Benzoxazoles Derived from Thymoquinone
(MDPI, 2018)
Thymoquinone (TQ), a natural compound with antimicrobial and antitumor activity, was used as the starting molecule for the preparation of 3-aminothymoquinone (ATQ) from which ten novel benzoxazole derivatives were prepared ...
Synthesis, Spectral and Solid State Characterization of a New Bioactive Hydrazine Bridged Cyclic Diphosphonium Compound
(MDPI, 2012)
The facile preparation of a racemic hydrazine bridged diphosphonium compound possessing a ring system analogous to bicyclo[3.3.2]decane is reported. Although the reaction yield is low, the structure of the compound, which ...
