Herein we report the synthesis and neuroprotective effects of new N‐alkyl‐1,2,4‐oxadiazolidine‐3,5‐diones and their corresponding synthetic intermediates, N‐alkylhydroxylamines and N‐1‐alkyl‐3‐carbonyl‐1‐hydroxyureas, in an in vitro model of ischemia. We found five analogues that protect HT22 cells from death in the concentration range of 1–5 μM . Because members of the MAP kinase family are known to be key players in nerve cell survival and death, we characterized the role of these kinases in the neuroprotective mechanisms of the newly synthesized analogues. The results indicate that these compounds provide neuroprotection through distinct mechanisms of action.相似文献
4,6‐Diazido‐N‐nitro‐1,3,5‐triazine‐2‐amine (DANT) was prepared with a 35 % yield from cyanuric chloride in a three step process. DANT was characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy (1H, 13C, 15N), single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction, and DTA. The crystal density of DANT is 1.849 g cm−3. The cyclization of one azido group and one nitrogen atom of the triazine group giving tetrazole was observed for DANT in a dimethyl sulfoxide solution using NMR spectroscopy. An equilibrium exists between the original DANT molecule and its cyclic form at a ratio of 7 : 3. The sensitivity of DANT to impact is between that for PETN and RDX, sensitivity to friction is between that for lead azide and PETN, and sensitivity to electric discharge is about the same as for PETN. DANT′s heat of combustion is 2060 kJ mol−1. 相似文献
This study reports the preparation of 1‐amino‐1,2,3‐triazole‐3‐oxide (DPX2) and its transformation to 1,2,3,4‐tetrazine‐1‐oxide. DPX‐2 provides insight into a novel N‐oxide/N‐amino high‐nitrogen system, being the first energetic material in this class. The ability of this material to undergo a nitrene insertion forming 1,2,3,4‐tetrazine‐1‐oxide was also studied, and evidence for this material, the first non‐benzoannulated 1,2,3,4‐tetrazine‐1‐oxide, is presented. The existence of both of these materials opens new strategies in energetic materials design. DPX2 was characterized chemically (Infrared, Raman, NMR, X‐ray) and as a high explosive in terms of energetic performances (detonation velocity, pressure, etc.) and sensitivities (impact, friction, electrostatic). DPX‐2 was found to possess good thermal stability and moderate sensitivities, indicating the viability of N‐amino N‐oxides as a strategy for the preparation of new energetic materials. 相似文献
The oxidizing system of tert‐butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) and tetrabutylammonium iodide (TBAI) is capable of generating α‐(arylaminocarbonyl)iminyl radicals from ethyl 2‐(N‐arylcarbamoyl)‐2‐iminoacetates. These iminyl radicals preferably undergo intramolecular ipso attack on the benzene ring to give azaspirocyclohexadienyl radicals, which are readily captured by molecular oxygen under an oxygen atmosphere to yield azaspirocyclohexadienones. In the absence of oxygen, the reaction affords quinoxalin‐2‐one products. This oxidizing system is also effective to convert α‐aryl‐α‐azido‐N‐arylamides to the corresponding iminyl radicals under basic conditions (sodium tert‐butoxide, t‐BuONa), and the subsequent cyclization of these iminyl radicals results in the formation of azaspirocyclohexadienone products in high yields under an oxygen atmosphere. Plausible mechanisms are proposed to rationalize the experimental results, and factors influencing the reactions are discussed.
A new primary explosive, the silver salt of 4,6‐diazido‐N‐nitro‐1,3,5‐triazine‐2‐amine (AgDANT), was synthesized and characterized. AgDANT was prepared with a 97 % yield and characterized by IR spectroscopy, single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction, and DTA. The crystal density of AgDANT is 2.530 g cm−3 and the molecule consists of a centro‐symmetric dimer with a high degree of planarity. The intramolecular Ag Ag distance is relatively low (331 pm) and can be considered as a strong argentophilic interaction. AgDANT is non‐hygroscopic and its solubility in water (1.27 mg in 100 mL at 23 °C) is on a similar level of solubility to that of silver azide. The sensitivity of AgDANT to impact is slightly higher than that for MF, sensitivity to friction is the same as for LA, and sensitivity to electric discharge is between that for LS and MF. Initiation efficiency of AgDANT was tested in electric detonators and compared to dextrinated lead azide (initiation efficiency of AgDANT is 40 mg for PETN secondary charge). The thermal resistance of detonators with AgDANT is satisfactory; all detonators were fully functional after exposure at 65 °C (30 d) and 85 °C (2 d). 相似文献
A model margarine was stored under a temperature fluctuation cycle of 5—20 °C until granular crystals were observed. Using information obtained from the granular crystals, the crystallization behaviors of major triacylglycerols of palm oil, 1,3‐dipalmitoyl‐2‐oleoyl‐glycerol (POP), 1‐palmitoyl‐2,3‐dioleoyl‐glycerol (POO), and their mixtures were then investigated. It was shown that in the model margarine, the POP content in the granular crystals was higher than in their surrounding materials, and the X‐ray diffraction pattern of the granular crystals revealed that they were the most stable polymorph, β. 99% pure POP, POO, and their mixtures were then stored under the above‐mentioned temperature cycle. POP was found to form the unstable polymorph, α, when cooled rapidly from the melt. Within 24 hours transformation into the γ polymorph and then into the β polymorph was observed. POO was shown to transform into the β' polymorph from α. When POP and POO were mixed, the β polymorph did not emerge, instead it was shown that POP and POO were both agglomerated in the mixtures, giving rise to the formation of granular crystals. 相似文献
Trimeric betaine surfactants tri[(N‐alkyl‐N‐ethyl‐N‐sodium carboxymethyl)‐2‐ammonium bromide ethylene] amines were prepared with raw materials containing tris(2‐aminoethyl) amine, alkyloyl chloride, lithium aluminium hydride, sodium chloroacetate, and bromoethane by alkylation, Hoffman degradation reaction, carboxymethylation and quaternary amination reaction. The chemical structures of the prepared compounds were confirmed by FTIR, 1H NMR, MS and elemental analysis. With the increasing length of the carbon chain, the values of their critical micelle concentration initially decreased. Surface active properties of these compounds were superior to general carboxylate surfactants C10H21CHN+(CH3)2COONa. The minimum cross‐sectional area per surfactant molecule (Amin), standard Gibbs free energy adsorption (ΔGads) and standard Gibbs free energy micellization (ΔGmic) are notably influenced by the chain length n, and the trimeric betaine surfactants have greater ability to adsorb at the air/water interface than form micelles in solution. The efficiency of adsorption at the water/air interface (pC20) of these surfactants increased with the increasing length of the alkyl chain. Their foaming properties, wetting ability of a felt chip, and lime‐soap dispersing ability were also investigated. 相似文献
Summary: Polyelectrolyte hydrogels containing diprotic acid moieties sensitive to ionic strength changes of the swelling medium were synthesized from N,N‐diethylaminoethyl methacrylate (DEAEMA), N‐vinyl‐2‐pyrrolidone (VP) and itaconic acid (IA) by using ammonium persulfate (APS) as a free radical initiator in the presence of the cross‐linker, methylenebisacrylamide (MBAAm). The swelling behavior of the ionic poly[(N,N‐diethylaminoethyl methacrylate)‐co‐(N‐vinyl‐2‐pyrrolidone)] [P(DEAEMA/VP)] hydrogels were investigated in pure water; in NaCI solutions with pH 4 and 9; and in water‐acetone mixtures depending on the IA content in the hydrogel. The average molecular mass between cross‐links ( ) and polymer‐solvent interaction parameter (χ) of the hydrogels were determined from equilibrium swelling values. The pulsatile swelling behavior was also observed in response to solvent changes between the solution in water and in acetone. The equilibrium swelling ratio of these hydrogels was basically unaffected with change in temperature. The swelling variations were explained according to the swelling theory based on the hydrogel chemical structure.

The development of nucleic acid derivatives to generate novel medical treatments has become increasingly popular, but the high vulnerability of oligonucleotides to nucleases limits their practical use. We explored the possibility of increasing the stability against 3′‐exonucleases by replacing the two 3′‐terminal nucleotides by N‐ethyl‐N‐coupled nucleosides. Molecular dynamics simulations of 3′‐N‐ethyl‐N‐modified DNA:Klenow fragment complexes suggested that this kind of alteration has negative effects on the correct positioning of the adjacent scissile phosphodiester bond at the active site of the enzyme, and accordingly was expected to protect the oligonucleotide from degradation. We verified that these modifications conferred complete resistance to 3′‐exonucleases. Furthermore, cellular RNAi experiments with 3′‐N‐ethyl‐N‐modified siRNAs showed that these modifications were compatible with the RNAi machinery. Overall, our experimental and theoretical studies strongly suggest that these modified oligonucleotides could be valuable for therapeutic applications. 相似文献
Visible light irradiation of N‐bromosuccinimide serves as an effective means to convert methyl 2‐(azidomethyl)‐3‐arylpropenoates and 2‐(azidomethyl)‐3‐arylacrylonitriles to the corresponding iminyl radicals via α‐hydrogen abstraction and subsequent extrusion of dinitrogen. Thus formed iminyl radicals then undergo intramolecular ortho attack on the aryl ring, affording methyl quinoline‐3‐carboxylates and quinoline‐3‐carbonitriles respectively.
