Diuron (3-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea) is a substituted urea herbicide widely used on agricultural crops such as soy, cotton and sugar cane. In a previous long-term study this herbicide exerted carcinogenic activity on the urinary bladder and renal pelvis mucosa of Wistar rats and breast of mice. Also, it was shown to be carcinogenic to the mice skin in a initiation-promotion assay. In 1997, the northamerican EPA evaluated Diuron as a “known/likely” carcinogen for humans (USEPA, 2004). In a previous study developed at this laboratory, male Wistar rats treated with Diuron 2500 ppm during 20 weeks presented increased indices of cell proliferation and incidences of simple urothelial hyperplasia (HS) in the urinary bladder. Under scanning electron microscopy (SEM) severe urothelial necrosis and hyperplasia were observed. However, in that study the urinary bladders of animals exposed to lower doses of Diuron were not examined under SEM. Therefore, the possible dose-response influence of Diuron on the urothelium under SEM is not known. The present study aimed to analyze under SEM the urinary bladder of male Wistar rats exposed to 125 ppm, 500 ppm and 2500 ppm doses of Diuron through diet during 20 weeks and to compare to the previous histological findings in the same material. Under SEM, 125 ppm and 2500 ppm groups presented significantly (p<0,05) increased incidences of simple hyperplasia, i.e., 7/10 and 8/10 respectively, compared to control group and the 500 ppm group The sensitivity of SEM was higher since it detected a 45% incidence of hyperplasiaswhile the histological analysis found only 27%. Considering SEM as the gold-standard, histology showed a 44% sensitivity, 86.4% specificity, a positive predictive value of 72,7% and negative predictive value of 65,5% and accuracy of 67,5%.

Diuron (3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea) is a substituted urea herbicide widely used in crops of sugar cane, cotton and soybeans. In 1997, this agent has been classified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency as known/likely human carcinogen because it induced tumors in the urinary bladder and renal pelvis of rats, and breast and skin of mice exposed to 2500 ppm for feed for two years. A previous study from our group demonstrated dose-response relationship in the gene expression profile associated with severe necrosis on bladder urothelium and increased incidence of simple hyperplasia in male Wistar rats treated with different concentrations of diuron for 20 weeks. To check how early the molecular changes occurs, rats were fed for 7 days with diets containing diuron at 0, 125, 500 or 2500 ppm. The main observations recorded were urothelium ultrastructural alterations and disruptions of molecular pathways associated with cell-cell interaction and the tissue organization maintenance. Particularly, the gene Glypican 3 (Gpc3), a surface proteoglycan related to cellular adhesion and apoptosis induction, was down regulated on urothelium exposed to 2500ppm diuron for 7 days and 20 weeks. The aim of this study was validate by quantitative RT-PCR real time, the reduced Gpc3 gene expression in epithelial cells of the urinary bladder of male Wistar rats treated with different concentrations of diuron for 7 days and 20 weeks. The endogenous control of the quantitative PCR real time technique was the β-actin gene and the target was the gene Gpc3. The relative quantification (RQ) was obtained by the method of relative quantification 2-ΔΔCt . Animals exposed to diuron for 7 days or for 20 weeks presented reduction of Gpc3 gene expression compared to the control group. This reduction was statistically significant only for the 7 days study. Moreover, by comparing animals exposed for 7 days with the exposed for 20 weeks, it was ...

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) have been studied in detail with regard to their interaction with therapeutic and drug addiction-related compounds. Using a structureactivity approach, we have examined the relationship among the molecular features of a set of eight para-R-substituted N,N-[(dimethylamino)ethyl] benzoate hydrochlorides, structurally related to procaine and their affinity for the a3 beta 4 nAChR heterologously expressed in KXa3 beta 4R2 cells. Affinity values (log[1/IC50]) of these compounds for the a3 beta 4 nAChR were determined by their competition with [3H]TCP binding. Log(1/IC50) values were analyzed considering different hydrophobic and electronic parameters and those related to molar refractivity. These have been experimentally determined or were taken from published literature. In accordance with literature observations, the generated cross-validated quantitative structureactivity relationship (QSAR) equations indicated a significant contribution of hydrophobic term to binding affinity of procaine analogs to the receptor and predicted affinity values for several local anesthetics (LAs) sets taken from the literature. The predicted values by using the QSAR model correlated well with the published values both for neuronal and for electroplaque nAChRs. Our work also reveals the general structure features of LAs that are important for interaction with nAChRs as well as the structural modifications that could be made to enhance binding affinity.

This work describes the atropisomeric relationships of 3-methyl-5-(3-methyl-5-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-amine (2d), which belongs to series 4-aminobipyrazole derivatives designed as anti-inflammatory agents. The 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectra obtained in the presence of a chiral lanthanide shift salt associated to chiral high-performance liquid chromatography analysis, X-ray diffraction, and molecular modeling tools confirmed that ortho bis-functionalized bipyrazole 2d exists as a mixture of aR,aS-atropisomers. These results provide useful information to understand the pharmacological profile of this derivative and of other 4-aminobipyrazole analogs. Chirality 24:463470, 2012.

This article describes the Diels-Alder reaction between methyl thiocinnamates, substituted at the para position by electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups, with cyclopentadiene in the presence of catechol boron bromide (CBB) as a Lewis acid catalyst. The adduct configuration was confirmed by H-1 NMR coupling constants and single-crystal x-ray diffraction. Total endo stereoselectivity was observed in all reactions and was attributed to the effective secondary interaction between the boron atom and the incipient double bond in the norbonene resulting from the planar geometry of the catalyst. C-13 NMR chemical shifts of the coordinated dienophile carbonyl carbons with CBB compared to those of the non coordinated thiocinammates suggest a strong complexation with the catalyst.

A series of 3-(triazolyl)-coumarins were synthesized and tested as anti-inflammatory agents. It was possible to infer that these compounds do not alter the interaction of LPS with TLR-4 or TLR-2, as the intracellular pathways involved in the TNF-alpha secretion and COX-2 activity were not affected. Nevertheless, the compounds inhibited iNOS-derived NO production, without affecting the eNOS activity. The outcome of the docking studies showed that it pi center dot center dot center dot pi interactions with the heme group are important for the iNOS inhibition, thus making compound 3c a promising lead. Moreover, the efficacy of this compound was visualized by the reduced number of neutrophils in the LPS-inflamed subcutaneous tissue. Together, biological and docking data show that triazolyl-substituted coumarins, that can act on iNOS, are a good scaffold to be explored. (C) 2012 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.

This thesis is focused on studies of substituted Hg-based superconducting copper oxides ((Hg1-xMx)Ba2Can-1CunO2n+2+δ). These compounds are promising objects of investigation, not only from a fundamental point of view but also because of their high values of superconducting transition temperature (Tc) and irreversibility field (Hirr). The first part of the thesis is devoted to optimization of the synthesis procedure for Hg-based cuprates. The influence of different parameters (T, t, p(Hg), p(O2)) on the synthesis of these compounds in sealed silica tubes was studied. Optimal conditions yielded samples containing up to 95% of HgBa2Ca2Cu3O8+δ (Hg-1223). The formation of solid solutions with the formula (Hg1-xCux)Ba2Ca2Cu3O8+δ (where x <= 0.5) was also established. Another technique was developed, using LiF as a flux, for synthesis of samples containing up to 90% of the HgBa2CaCu2O6+δ (Hg-1212) phase. The second part concerns synthesis and studies of oxyfluorides using Hg-1212 and Hg-1223 as starting materials together with XeF2 as a fluorinating agent. It was found that oxyfluorides of both phases have a parabolic dependence of Tc vs. a parameter as well as enhanced Tc values (ΔT ≈ 3-4 K) in comparison with optimally doped non-fluorinated analogues. The crystal structure of Hg-1223 oxyfluoride was studied by X-ray powder and neutron diffraction methods. It is suggested that chemical modification of the crystal structure leads to a decrease in Cu-O distance without noticeable change in Cu-O-Cu angle (in the (CuO2) layers), which may be the significant factors influencing this Tc increase. Hg-1223 oxyfluoride was also studied under high pressure for first time. It was found that this compound has a record-high Tc value (≈ 166 K) at P ≈ 23 GPa. The last part describes the investigation of substituted Hg-based superconductors in the series (Hg0.9M0.1)Ba2CuO4+δ {(Hg,M)-1201}, where M = Tl, Pb, W, Mo, Nb and V. A comprehensive study of these compounds by various methods (X-ray powder diffraction, EDX, IR-, EXAFS- and XANES -spectroscopy) indicated that the change of charge carrier doping level is a crucial factor determining the irreversibility line. (Hg0.9Mo0.1)Ba2CuO4+δ showed the most improved irreversibility line position among the (Hg,M)-1201 compounds studied in this series.

In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird ein prochirales, aus natürlichen Resourcen gewonnenes Azulen, das Guajazulen genutzt, um neuartige chirale Cyclopentadienyl-Systeme aufzubauen. Mit Alkalimetallhypersilaniden als starke und sperrige Nukleophile gelingt es hypersilylsubstituierte Gujazulenide zu synthetisieren. Diese wurden mittels Elementaranalyse, NMR-Spektroskopie und Röntgendiffraktometrie charakterisiert. Durch nachfolgende Metathesen mit Übergangsmetallhalogeniden konnten in vielen Fällen die entsprechenden Metallocene erhalten werden. Die Experimente enthüllen eine ausgeprägte Regioselektivität der Addition des sperrigen Hypersilyanions an das Guajazulen, die durch das eingesetzte Lösungsmittel graduell verändert werden kann. In nicht-koordinierenden Lösungsmitteln findet man ausschließlich eine Addition an der 6-Position, die 6-Hypersilyl-2,6-dihydroguajazulenide (6-Hyp-Hgual) (M=Li 1, K 2, Cs 4) in ausgezeichneten Ausbeuten liefert. In polaren Solventien erhält man hingegen Mischungen der 6- und 8-Regioisomeren: 2 bzw. (8-Hyp-Hgual) (3). 2 bleibt aber hierbei das Hauptprodukt. Röntgenbeugungsexperimente zeigen, dass 1 im Kristall als dimerer Sandwich-Komplex, meso-[Li2(6-Hyp-Hgual)2], und die THF-Solvate (thf)4K(6-Hyp-Hgual) (2a) sowie (thf)4K(8-Hyp-Hgual) (3a) jeweils als Halb-Sandwich-Komplexe in einer racemischen Mischung vorliegen. Die Verbindungen 1, 2, 3 and 4 eignen sich sehr gut dazu, in Metathesereaktionen als Precursor für neuartige chirale Metallozen-Komplexe eingesetzt zu werden. Insbesondere das Kaliumderivat 2 besticht durch die einfache und relativ preiswerte Synthese, die erzielten hohen Ausbeuten (>80%) und seine leichte Handhabbarkeit. In THF als Solvent wurden die Metallocene 5:5-M’(6-Hyp-Hgual)2 (M’ = Mn 5, Fe 6, Ni 8) und 5:5-Fe(8-Hyp-Hgual)2 (7) erhalten. Bei Verwendung einiger redox-aktiver Metallhalogenide beobachtet man jedoch die Zersetzung der Metallocene unter Bildung des oxidativen Kopplungsproduktes (3-Hyp-6-Hgual)2 (9) sowie der Ausscheidung von Metall. Die Umsetzung von Halogeniden der Gruppe 4 (TiCl3 and M’’Cl4 (M’’ = Ti, Zr, Hf)) mit 2 liefert in THF ausschließlich die Metallozendichloride M’’(6-Hyp-Hgual)2Cl2 (M’’ = Ti (10), Zr (11), Hf (12)). Die erhaltenen Metallozenderivate fallen als Diastereomeren-Gemische an, die sich durch fraktionierende Kristallisation teilweise oder vollständig in ihre Bestandteile, das jeweilige R,R-Racemat und das R,S-meso-Diastereomer auftrennen lassen. Die Strukturen der rac-Diastereomere konnten durch Beugungsexperimente aufgeklärt werden. Durch eine Metathese von 2 mit Hyp-Cl kann eine zweite Hypersilylgruppe in die 2-Position des Guajazulen-Gerüstes eingeführt werden. Das entstehende 2,6-bis(Hyp)-H2gua (14) kann anschließend mit nBuLi in das extrem luft- und feuchtigkeitsempfindliche Li[2,6-bis(Hyp)-Hgual] (15) überführt werden, dass wie 1 eine dimere Sandwich-Struktur aufweist. Durch Einführung des zweiten Hypersilylrestes werden die chemischen Eigenschaften des Azulenids dramatisch verändert. Während Verbindung 1 sich als guter Precursor für Metallocene erwies, gelang es uns bislang nicht, entsprechende Derivate der Verbindung 15 zu isolieren.

A series of oligo-phenylene dendronised conjugated polymers was prepared. The divergent synthetic approach adopted allowed for the facile synthesis of a range of dendronised monomers from a common intermediate, e.g. first and second generation fluorene. Only the polymerisation of the first generation and alkylarylamine substituted dendronised fluorene monomers yielded high molecular weight materials, attributed to the low solubility of the remaining dendronised monomers. The alkylarylamine substituted dendronised poly(fluorene) was incorporated into an organic light emitting diode (OLED) and exhibited an increased colour stability in air compared to other poly(fluorenes). The concept of dendronisation was extended to poly(fluorenone), a previously insoluble material. The synthesis of the first soluble poly(fluorenone) was achieved by the incorporation of oligo-phenylene dendrons at the 4-position of fluorenone. The dendronisation of fluorenone allowed for a polymer with an Mn of 4.1 x 104 gmol-1 to be prepared. Cyclic voltammetry of the dendronised poly(fluorenone) showed that the electron affinity of the polymer was high and that the polymer is a promising n-type material. A dimer and trimer of indenofluorene (IF) were prepared from the monobromo IF. These oligomers were investigated by 2-dimensional wide angle x-ray spectroscopy (2D-WAXS), polarised optical microscopy (POM) and dielectric spectroscopy, and found to form highly ordered smetic phases. By attaching perylene dye as the end-capper on the IF oligomers, molecules that exhibited efficient Förster energy transfer were obtained. Indenofluorene monoketone, a potential defect structure for IF based OLED’s, was synthesised. The synthesis of this model defect structure allowed for the long wavelength emission in OLED’s to be identified as ketone defects. The long wavelength emission from the indenofluorene monoketone was found to be concentration dependent, and suggests that aggregate formation is occurring. An IF linked hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene (HBC) dimer was synthesised. The 2D-WAXS images of this HBC dimer demonstrate that the molecule exhibits intercolumnar organisation perpendicular to the extrusion direction. POM images of mixtures of the HBC dimer mixed with an HBC with a low isotropic temperature demonstrated that the HBC dimer is mixing with the isotropic HBC.

Untersuchungen zur stereokontrollierten Synthese von 3-Mercaptolysinderivaten: 3-Mercaptolysin und Peptide mit einer 3-Mercaptolysin-Einheit sind als Liganden für Nukleardiagnostika in der Kontrastmittelforschung von großem Interesse. Für das Screening Gewebe-selektiver Diagnostika sollten Mercaptolysinderivate, die sich für den Einbau in Peptide eignen, stereokontrolliert aufgebaut werden. Als Grundlage wurde im Rahmen dieser Arbeit eine sehr effiziente Synthese von Methoxymethyl-(4-oxo-butyl)-carbaminsäure-tert-butylester aus Pent-4-en-1-ol entwickelt. Nach Olefinierung des Aldehyds konnten Auxiliar-substituierte 6-Amino-hexensäure-derivate in guten Ausbeuten erhalten werden. Diese bildeten die Startmaterialien für auxiliargesteuerte Aziridinierungen mit anschließender Ringöffnung durch Schwefel-Nukleophile. Zudem wurden Azidierungen an Auxiliar-bewehrten Substraten, Michael-Additionen von Schwefel-Nukleophilen an Dehydroaminosäuren und viele weitere Reaktionen untersucht. Es galt dabei auf patentrechtlich geschützte Reaktionen zu verzichten, weil die Produkte ggf. in großem Maßstab kommerziell genutzt werden sollen. Dabei konnten alle vier stereoisomeren 2-Acetylamino-6-(tert-butoxycarbonyl-methoxymethyl-amino)-3-(4-methoxy-benzylsulfanyl)-hexansäurementhylester in guter Ausbeute synthetisiert werden. Nach Herstellung größerer Mengen der entsprechenden am Schwefelatom ungeschützten N-Fmoc-Aminosäurederivate sollen alle vier Stereoisomere in Peptide eingebaut und auf ihre Eignung als Liganden in Nukleardiagnostika untersucht werden. Untersuchungen zur Synthese neuartiger Ansa-Steroide: Über die Synthese von Ansa-Seco-Steroiden mittels eine Kaskade von intermolekularer Diels-Alder-Reaktion und anschließender Retro-Diels-Alder-Reaktion an 5,6,7,8-Tetradehydrosteroiden wurde erstmals 1986 von E. Winterfeldt et al. berichtet. Die damit eröffnete Möglichkeit eines völlig neuen Zugangs zu pharmakologisch interessanten Makrolid-Substraten konnte aber bislang nicht effektiv genutzt werden, weil insbesondere im Zusammenhang mit der Diels-Alder-Reaktion erhebliche präparative Probleme auftraten: Brauchbare Reaktivität nur bei sehr wenigen Dienophilen, Regioselektivitätsprobleme, etc. Hier galt es zu untersuchen, inwiefern sich diese Probleme durch die intramolekulare Reaktionsführung der Cycloaddition unterdrücken lassen können. Für die intramolekulare Diels-Alder-Reaktion zwischen der 5,7-Dien-Einheit des Steroids und einer an das Substrat gebundenen Dienophil-Einheit ist die Möglichkeit einer günstigen Anordnung der beiden Reaktanden-Gruppen entscheidend. Dafür wurden umfangreiche Untersuchungen zur alpha-konfigurierten Anbindung eines Dienophils in die 3-Position an 3-Hydroxy-5,6,7,8-Tetradehydrosteroiden durchgeführt: Mitsunobu-Reaktionen, Oxidations-Reduktions-Sequenzen, Oxidations-Ketalisierungs-Sequenzen, etc. Hierbei wurden zahlreiche neue Steroide synthetisiert. Es gelang jedoch nicht, 5,6,7,8-Tetradehydrosteroide mit axial in Position 3 eingebundenen Dienophilen in präparativ nutzbaren Mengen zu synthetisieren. Bei der Untersuchung intermolekularer Diels-Alder-Reaktionen zwischen Ergosterol und Brommaleinsäureanhydrid wurde vorzugsweise die Bildung der Addukte des 7,8,14,15-Tetradehydroisomers des Ergosterols beobachtet.

Crystallization-induced diastereoisomer transformation (CIDT) was successfully employed in the enantioselective synthesis of 2-alkyl-3-aryl-propan-1-amines. These products are seen as potentially useful building blocks in the field of asymmetric organic chemistry, notably for pharmaceutically relevant compounds. The procedure was based on a recently reported protocol for deracemization of dihydrocinnamic aldehydes in which enantiomerically enriched 1-(amino(phenyl)methyl)naphthalen-2-ol (Betti base) is employed as a resolving agent. Additionally, fenpropimorph, a biologically active substance which contains the 2-alkyl-3-aryl-propan-1-amine moiety was synthetized, as an attempt to assess the usefulness of the enantiomerically enriched amines.

Definiert konfigurierte mittelgroße ungesättigte Heterocyclen sind wertvolle Zwischenstufen in der Naturstoff- und Wirkstoffsynthese. Es konnte gezeigt werden, dass 2-alkinyl-substituierte Piperidine und Azepane in einer Aza-Keten-Claisen-Reaktion zu 10- und 11-gliedrigen Allenyllactamen umgelagert werden können. Ein 9-gliedriges Allenyllactam konnte nicht dargestellt werden (Ringspannung). Über eine sechs- bis sieben-stufige Reaktionssequenz konnten optisch aktive, geschützte Piperidinole aufgebaut werden. Es wurden Auxiliar kontrollierte Hetero-Diels-Alder-Reaktionen, diastereoselektive Reduktionen, Bestmann-Ohira Umlagerungen zu Alkinen und verschiedene Alkin-Funktionalisierungen erarbeitet. Eine Aza-Claisen-Umlagerung liefert schließlich optisch aktive Lactame deren absolute Konfiguration des Allensystems mittels NOE-NMR-Spektroskopie untersucht werden kann. Limitierungen und Möglichkeiten der Synthese werden eingehend diskutiert. Sowohl der stereochemische Verlauf der Reaktion als auch die Konformation der Produkte ermöglichen eine Fokussierung auf nachfolgende Naturstoffsynthesen vorzunehmen.

Doubly charged ion mass spectra of alkyl-substituted furans and pyrroles were obtained using a double-focusing magnetic mass spectrometer operated at 3.2 kV accelerating voltage. Molecular ions were the dominant species found in doubly charged spectra of lower molecular weight heterocydic compounds, whereas the spectra of the higher weight homologues were typified by abundant fragment ions from extensive decomposition. Measured doubly charged ionization and appearance energies ranged from 22.8 to 47.9 eV. Ionization energies were correlated with values calculated using self-consistent field–molecular orbital techniques. A multichannel diabatic curve-crossing model was developed to investigate the fundamental organic ion reactions responsible for development of doubly charged ion mass spectra. Probabilities for Landau–Zener type transitions between reactant and product curves were determined and used in the collision model to predict charge-transfer cross-sections, which compared favorably with experimental cross-sections obtained using time-of-flight techniques.

The title compound, C(34)H(24)Cl(4)N(4)O(8)S, is a linear penta-cyclic system formed of two substituted benzoxazinyl groups fused to 2-n-butyl-tetra-hydro-thio-phene. The oxazine ring, which is fused to the n-butyl-substituted side of the thio-phene ring, is in a boat conformation. The other fused oxazine ring and the tetra-hydro-thiene ring are each in an envelope conformation. The bridgehead C atom alpha to both the S and N atoms forms the flap of each envelope. This results in a twist of the penta-cyclic system such that the dihedral angle between the terminal dichloro-benzene rings is 82.92 (8)°. In the crystal, inversion-related mol-ecules form a weakly hydrogen-bonded dimer, with two C-H⋯O inter-actions between an H atom on the oxazine ring and an amide O atom. Additionally, C-H⋯O inter-actions occur between an H atom on a screw-related nitro-benzene ring and an O atom on the nitro-benzene ring of one mol-ecule. One of the Cl atoms and the butyl group are disordered over two sets of sites with occupancy ratios of 0.94 (2):0.06 (2) and 0.624 (4):0.376 (4), respectively.
