Irradiation of methyl 3-methoxyl-2-naphthoate (2,3-NA) in methanol solution with light lambda > 280 nm produces anti-head-to-head cubane-like photocyclodimer 1 and [4+4] intermediate 2, which is, to the best of our knowledge, the first incidence of directly obtaining the intermediate in

Phospholipids have been synthesized that possess a normal 16-carbon chain plus a "defective" chain only 8 or 12 carbons long and terminated with methoxyl, hydroxyl, or carboxyl groups. In addition, dimeric phospholipids have been prepared in which two phospholipid units are joined at position-1 with

The primary objective of this study was to investigate the correlations between instrument measurements and sensory attributes of strawberry jam. For this purpose, a series of low sugar strawberry jams were prepared by using different contents of pectin from different sources, which were evaluated

We announce the establishment of a new family of macrocycles--the asararenes, which are based on para-methylene linked "asarol methyl ether" (1,2,4,5-tetramethoxybenzene) units. Macrocycles with 6-12 aromatic units have been synthesized and isolated in a single step from asarol methyl ether and

Thrombin inhibitor therapy is one of the most effective therapeutic strategies for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular and thrombotic diseases. Although several marketed direct thrombin inhibitors (DTIs) have been widely used in clinic, the potentially serious complications of these DTIs

The interaction between eugenol and β-cyclodextrin in the presence of water is studied by molecular mechanics and dynamics simulations. A force field model is used in molecular mechanics to determine the interaction energy and the complex configuration at the absolute minimum. The van der Waals
