New Hybrid Ethylenediurea (EDU) Derivatives and Their Phytoactivity.

Natural and synthetic phytohormones are widely used in agriculture. The synthetic cytokinin ethylenediurea (EDU) induces protection in plants against ozone phytotoxicity. In our study, new hybrid derivatives of EDU were synthesized and tested for phytoactivity.

Biologically Oriented Hybrids of Indole and Hydantoin Derivatives.

Indoles and hydantoins are important heterocycles scaffolds which present in numerous bioactive compounds which possess various biological activities. Moreover, they are essential building blocks in organic synthesis, particularly for the preparation of important hybrid molecules. The series of hybrid compounds containing indoles and imidazolidin-2-one moiety with direct C-C bond were synthesized using an amidoalkylation one-pot reaction.

The Effect of a Biostimulant Based on a Protein Hydrolysate of Rainbow Trout () on the Growth and Yield of Wheat ( L.).

The research object was the liquid protein hydrolysate "AGROMOREE" from the rainbow trout, which was provided by the company "Russian Aquaculture LLC". The purpose of this study was the evaluation of the effect of the hydrolysate "AGROMOREE" as a biostimulant on the growth and yield of wheat ( L.).

Application of capillary electrophoresis technique for the enantioseparation of bioactive ferrocene-based compounds versus DFT calculated data.

Herein, a series of bioactive ferrocene-modified N-heterocycles with alkyl linkers was prepared in good to quantitative yields starting from easy accessible ferrocene alcohols and heterocycles under acidic or neutral (for imidazole) conditions in racemic forms. The analytical resolution of a number of bioactive racemic ferrocene azoles 1-6 (where azole = imidazole, pyrazole, and benzotriazole derivatives) into enantiomers was first carried out by CE using sulfobuthylether-β-CD (captisol) as a chiral selector. The analytical approaches to highly enantiomeric-enriched ferrocene derivatives are based on the formation of their inclusion complexes.

Individual ( A)- and ( C)-Fullerene-Based Nickel(II) Glycinates: Protected Chiral Amino Acids Directly Linked to a Chiral π-Electron System.

Stereoselective electrosynthesis of the first individual ( A)- and ( C)-1,4-fullerene derivatives with a non-inherently chiral functionalization pattern is described, as well as the first example of an optically pure protected primary amino acid directly linked to the fullerene through only the chiral α-amino-acid carbon atom. An application of an auxiliary chiral nickel-Schiff base moiety as derivatizing agent allowed separation of ( A)- and ( C)-1,4-fullerene derivatives using an achiral stationary phase, a separation which has never been done before.

Synthesis of hydroxydiamines and triamines via reductive cleavage of N-N bond in substituted pyrazolidines.

Aliphatic polyamines, being a versatile class of organic compounds, are widely used in many fields of medicine and organic chemistry. However, the general approach to the synthesis of chiral aliphatic polyamines has been still undeveloped. Here, we describe a new method for the synthesis of chiral trifunctional amino compounds, namely hydroxydiamines and triamines.

Synthesis of alpha-amino acids via asymmetric phase transfer-catalyzed alkylation of achiral nickel(II) complexes of glycine-derived Schiff bases.

Achiral, diamagnetic Ni(II) complexes 1 and 3 have been synthesized from Ni(II) salts and the Schiff bases, generated from glycine and PBP (7) and PBA (11), respectively, in MeONa/MeOH solutions. The requisite carbonyl-derivatizing agents pyridine-2-carboxylic acid(2-benzoyl-phenyl)-amide 7 (PBP) and pyridine-2-carboxylic acid(2-formyl-phenyl)-amide 11 (PBA) were readily prepared from picolinic acid and o-aminobenzophenone or picolinic acid and methyl o-anthranilate, respectively. The structure of 1 was established by X-ray crystallography.
