On the structures and luminescence properties of Eu -doped Li CaGeO , Ca GeO , and Ca Ge O compounds.

Powder samples of Li CaGeO , Ca GeO , and Ca Ge O doped by 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 at% Eu relative to the Ca , were prepared using a conventional solid-state synthesis technique. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses confirmed obtaining the pure phases at all dopant concentrations.

New Heterocyclic Combretastatin A-4 Analogs: Synthesis and Biological Activity of Styryl-2(3)-benzothiazolones.

Here, we describe the synthesis, characterization, and biological activities of a series of 26 new styryl-2(3H)-benzothiazolone analogs of combretastatin-A4 (CA-4). The cytotoxic activities of these compounds were tested in several cell lines (EA.hy926, A549, BEAS-2B, MDA-MB-231, HT-29, MCF-7, and MCF-10A), and the relations between structure and cytotoxicity are discussed.

Three-Dimensional (3D) Microporous Iron Silicate with an Imandrite Type of Structure.

Small-pore iron silicate MS-1 (Minho-Sofia, solid number 1) with a 3D porous system, an analogue of the rare mineral imandrite, has been synthesized and characterized. This material is the lowest framework density iron silicate, one of the most siliceous (Si/Fe = 6) iron silicates, the first iron cyclosilicate achieved at hydrothermal conditions, and the only synthetic iron-based member of the lovozerite mineral group.

Anti-enteroviral activity of new MDL-860 analogues: Synthesis, in vitro/in vivo studies and QSAR analysis.

A series of 60 nitrobenzonitrile analogues of the anti-viral agent MDL-860 were synthesized (50 of which are new) and evaluated for their activity against three types of enteroviruses (coxsackievirus B1, coxsackievirus B3 and poliovirus 1). Among them, six diaryl ethers (20e, 27e, 28e, 29e, 33e and 35e) demonstrated high in vitro activity (SI > 50) towards at least one of the tested viruses and very low cytotoxicity against human cells. Compound 27e possesses the broadest spectrum of activity towards all tested viruses in the same way as MDL-860 does.

Synthesis and anti-enterovirus activity of new analogues of MDL-860.

A series of twelve novel compounds, analogues of antiviral agent MDL-860 were synthesized and their antiviral activity was evaluated in vitro against enteroviruses poliovirus 1 (PV1), Coxsackieviruses B1 (CVB1) and Coxsackieviruses B3 (CVB3). Compounds 14, 24 and 25 manifested strong antiviral effects against CVB1 and PV1 (SI values of 405 and 118 for CVB1 and PV1 respectively). In contrast to the wide anti-enteroviral activity of MDL-860, these three compounds were inactive against CVB3.

(R)-Methyl {[(2-carb-oxy-bicyclo-[2.2.2]octan-1-yl)-ammonio]-methyl}-phos-phon-ate dichloro-methane 0.25-solvate.

The carb-oxy-lic acid mol-ecule of the title compound, C(11)H(20)NO(5)P·0.25CH(2)Cl(2), exists as a zwitterion with the H atom of the phospho-nate group being transferred to the imine N atom. In the asymmetric unit, there are two crystallographically independent acid mol-ecules adopting the same absolute configuration and differing slightly in their geometrical parameters.

Crystal structure and properties of the copper(II) complex of sodium monensin A.

The preparation and structural characterization of a new copper(II) complex of the polyether ionophorous antibiotic sodium monensin A (MonNa) are described. Sodium monensin A binds Cu(II) to produce a heterometallic complex of composition [Cu(MonNa)(2)Cl(2)].H(2)O, 1.

A new monoclinic polymorph of dichlorido-tetra-kis(dimethyl sulfoxide)-ruthenium(II).

The title compound, cis,fac-dichloridotetra-kis(dimethyl sulfoxide)-κ(3)S,κO-ruthenium(II), [RuCl(2)(C(2)H(6)OS)(4)], was obtained from newly synthesized ruthenium complexes of 3-amino-2-chloro-pyridine. The Ru atom has a distorted octa-hedral coordination with two cis-oriented chloride ligands and four dimethyl sulfoxide ligands. Three of the sulfoxide ligands are S-bonded in a fac configuration, while the fourth is O-bonded.

(±)-Ethyl 6,7-dimeth-oxy-1-(1H-pyrrol-2-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetra-hydroisoquinoline-2-car-boxyl-ate.

In the title compound, C(18)H(22)N(2)O(4), the dihedral angle between the pyrrolyl and quinolinyl fragments is 68.97 (2)°. Two non-classical intra-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds stabilize the mol-ecular geometry.
