A novel and original strategy to obtain rapidly a large diversity of C-8 and N-9 substituted purines was developed. The present procedure describes annulation reactions in one or two steps starting from 5-aminoimidazole-4-carbonitriles 1-8 in moderate to good yields. 8,9-Disubstituted-6,9-dihydro-1H-purin-6-ones 9-14, 6-amino-8,9-disubstituted-3,9-dihydro-2H-purin-2-ones 15-20, 8,9-disubstituted-3,9-dihydro-2H-purin-2,6-diamines 21-24 and 6-imino-1-phenyl-8,9-disubstituted-6,9-dihydro-1H-purin-2-(3H)-ones 25-26 were synthesized in one step using formic acid, urea, guanidine carbonate, and phenylisocyanate, respectively, whereas 8,9-disubstituted-9H-purin-6-amines 27-31 and 6-imino-8,9-disubstituted-6,9-dihydro-1H-purin-1-amines 32-33 were obtained in two steps using formamide and hydrazine, respectively.

Article Synopsis
  • PFAS are found in various consumer products that touch the skin, but research on how they're absorbed through the skin is limited.
  • An in vitro study evaluated the dermal absorption of 17 different PFAS using a human skin model, revealing that shorter-chain PFAS like PFPeA and PFBS are absorbed more effectively than longer ones.
  • Although longer-chain PFAS weren't directly absorbed, significant amounts were retained in the skin tissue, and factors like the chemical structure influenced how these substances permeated the skin.

Article Synopsis
  • - Bromochloro alkanes (BCAs) are flame retardants with potential environmental risks similar to polychlorinated alkanes (PCAs), which are restricted as harmful Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs).
  • - A new analytical method utilizing advanced mass spectrometry was developed to study BCAs in indoor dust, demonstrating effective recovery rates of BCA compounds from dust samples.
  • - Analysis of 59 indoor dust samples from six countries revealed the presence of BCAs only in seven samples from the U.S., suggesting varying exposure levels across different regions, with specific carbon chain lengths and halogenation profiles identified.

We report experimental and computational studies of protonated adenine C-8 σ-radicals that are presumed yet elusive reactive intermediates of oxidative damage to nucleic acids. The radicals were generated in the gas phase by the collision-induced dissociation of C-8-Br and C-8-I bonds in protonated 8-bromo- and 8-iodoadenine as well as by 8-bromo- and 8-iodo-9-methyladenine. Protonation by electrospray of 8-bromo- and 8-iodoadenine was shown by cyclic-ion mobility mass spectrometry (c-IMS) to form the N-1-H, N-9-H and N-3-H, N-7-H protomers in 85:15 and 81:19 ratios, respectively, in accordance with the equilibrium populations of these protomers in water-solvated ions that were calculated by density functional theory (DFT).

Introduction: Prolonged exercise has been linked to a decline in cognitive function due to a variety of factors, such as a drop in oxygen in the prefrontal cortex and an increase in stress hormones and neurotransmitters. Medium chain triglycerides (MCTs) may possibly offset this decline as they provide energy for the brain via both direct and indirect pathways, alongside promoting chronic physiological adaptations within the brain.

Methods: Participants were divided into two groups; MCT (n = 9) and Placebo (n = 10).

GC-rich sequences are recurring motifs in oncogenes and retroviruses and could be targeted by noncovalent major-groove therapeutic ligands. We considered the palindromic sequence d(GGCGCC), and designed several oligopeptide derivatives of the anticancer intercalator mitoxantrone. The stability of their complexes with an 18-mer oligonucleotide encompassing this sequence in its center was validated using polarizable molecular dynamics.
