The hydroxy-substituted alkyl phenyl ketones 2'-, 3'- and 4'- (ortho, meta, and para) hydroxyacetophenone were excited in the strong-field regime with wavelengths ranging from 1200-1500 nm to produce the respective radical cations. For 2'- and 3'-hydroxyacetophenone, the parent molecular ion

A practical and efficient procedure for the synthesis of rivastigmine was developed. This procedure includes dynamic kinetic resolution using a polymer-bound ruthenium complex and a lipase in combination as a key step. Enantiopure (-)-rivastigmine was obtained from commercially available 3'-hydroxyacetophenone

m-Acetylphenyl-beta-d-glucopyranosides and m-acetylphenyl-alpha/beta-d-mannopyranosides were synthesized by the Koenigs-Knorr, Mitsunobu, and Helferich reactions as key glycosylation reactions, respectively. Their spectroscopic properties and antioxidative activities were characterized as potential ultraviolet B-ray absorbents.

Folate analogue inhibitors of Leishmania major pteridine reductase (PTR1) are potential antiparasitic drug candidates for combined therapy with dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) inhibitors. To identify new molecules with specificity for PTR1, we carried out a virtual screening of the Available Chemicals
