(2019)In the title sulfanilamide derivative, C15H13NO2S, which shows significant activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, the dihedral angle between the planes of the aromatic rings is 62.15 (19)° and the ... -
A Facile Method for the Titration of Organolithium Reagents using Naphtylamine or Naphtylmethylamine as Indicators
(2019)A simple method for the titration of alkyllithiums with sec-butanol, using naphtylamine or naphtylmethylamine as color indicator, is reported. Both amines gave sharp-end points, easily determined by color changes from ... -
One-Pot Conversion of Aldehydes and Ketones into 1-Substituted and 1,4-Disubstituted 1,3-Enynes
(2018)Sequential treatment of 2,3-dichloropropene with magnesium and n-BuLi generates the operational equivalent of 1,3-dilithiopropyne, which upon treatment with aldehydes or ketones, produces the corresponding alkoxy lithium ... -
Synthesis and Biological Activity of New Antifungal Compounds: A Preliminary Study
(2018)In the present study, we synthesized three 1,3-enynes from their corresponding aldehydes. They exhibited antifungal activity, which was evaluated against Trichophyton rubrum, the most common dermatophyte responsible for ... -
A facile method for the preparation of bishomopropargylic alcohols from acyl chlorides
(2014)Controlled dilithiation of propargyl bromide with two equivalents of n-butyllithium, in the presence of TMEDA, produces the operational equivalent of the dianion 1,3-dilithiopropyne. The latter reacts efficiently with ... -
Nueva síntesis de la feromona sexual de la polilla del repollo Plutella Xylostella
(2007)El compuesto (Z)-11-hexadecenal, feromona sexual de la polilla Plutella xylostella, fue preparado mediante tres secuencias sintéticas. La primer secuencia consistió de siete pasos y un rendimiento total de 47%. En las otras ... -
Synthesis and Determination of Antitumor Activity of Jacaranone and Synthetic Analogs
(2018)Natural product jacaranone, 1, and three analog derivatives were synthesized and their apoptotic and necrotic activity against four cancer cell lines was tested. One of these derivatives 7, was more active than the natural ... -
Nuevos métodos de preparación del 1,3-Dilitiopropino y sus aplicaciones en la síntesis de compuestos bioactivos
(2006)Se desarrolló un método para la preparación del 1,3-dilitiopropino, a partir de bromuro de propargilo. Este procedimiento ha sido usado para desarrollar nuevos métodos de síntesis de alcoholes homopropargílicos, 1,5-diinos, ... -
Stereospecific Synthesis of (E, Z)- and (Z, Z)-Hexadeca-10,12-dienal. Sex Pheromone Components of Diaphania hyalinata
(1998)Isomeric (E,Z)- and (Z,Z)-hexadeca-10,12-dienal were prepared, stereospecifically, in 51% and 43% overall yields from dec-1-yne. -
Propargylation of Carbonyl Compounds: An Efficient Method for the Synthesis of Homopropargyl Alcohols
(1998)Controlled dilithiation of allene, with two equivalents of n-butytlithium, produces the propargyl dianion 5. The latter couple efficiently with carbonyl compounds to produce homopropargyl alcohols in high yields. -
Antimicrobial activity of different sodium and potassium salts of carboxylic acid against some common foodborne pathogens and spoilage-associated bacteria
(2018)Cleaning and disinfection represent the most important activities associated with the elimination of dirt and microorganisms at food processing plants. Improper procedures may lead to cross contamination of food leading ... -
