New derivatives of 5(4H)-quinazolinone containing 2-imidazolin-5-one rings have been prepared from 5(4H)-oxazolone derivatives.

We report the synthesis of two novel Gd(III)-complexes derived from linear and macrocyclic polyaminopolycarboxylic acids 1 and 2, which contain a 3,5- dimethylpyrazolyl-ethyl arm, and a study of their relaxivity properties. The relationships between...

Novel 3-acetyl-2-aminothiophenes were prepared from cyanoacetone and1,4-dithianyl-2,5-diols using a modified Gewald reaction. The syntheses of thecorresponding acetamides, as well as that of 3-acetyl-2-amino-5-nitrothiophene – aninteresting building-...

Highly selective enzymatic reductions of aldehydes to the corresponding alcohols was performed using an E. coli JM109 whole cell biocatalyst. A selective enzymatic method for the reduction of aldehydes could provide an eco-compatible alternative to c...

In this paper we report a comparative characterization of Small UnilamellarVesicles (SUVs), Large Unilamellar Vesicles (LUVs) and Multilamellar Vesicles (MLVs)prepared from 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospatidylcholine (POPC), carried outusing...

We present an easy method for the synthesis of β-ketoesters starting from variouscarbocyclic and heterocyclic carboxylic acids and esters. The β-ketoester side-chain wasintroduced by a sequence involving α-deprotonation and quenching with CO₂, conver...

A one-step, simple and straightforward synthesis of the title amides from the corresponding carboxylic acids, urea and imidazole under microwave irradiation is described.

Novel derivatives of 6-amino-2-phenylbenzothiazole bearing differentsubstituents (amino, dimethylamino or fluoro) on the phenyl ring were prepared as thecorresponding hydrochloride salts. 6-Nitro-2-(substituted-phenyl)benzothiazoles (1-6) weresynthes...

Electrocoagulation of a plant extract and certain substances representative of selected classes of plant pigments, viz. chlorophyll, a carotenoid, a phenolic substance and a tannin, was performed in ethanol containing varying amounts of water (15-75%...
