Eumelanin is photoprotective while pheomelanin is phototoxic to pigmented tissues. Ultraviolet A (UVA)-induced tanning seems to result from the photooxidation of pre-existing melanin and contributes no photoprotection. However, data available for melanin biodegradation remain limited. In this study, we first

The disproportionation of elemental sulfur at moderate temperatures is investigated in the redox condensation involving o-halonitrobenzenes 1 and benzylamines 2. As a redox moderator, elemental sulfur plays the dual role of both electron donor and acceptor, generating its lowest and

A series of N-(substituted benzothiazol-2-yl)amide derivatives 2a-h and 4a-h were synthesized by the EDC coupling reactions of substituted-benzothiazol-2-amine with 4-oxo-4-phenylbutanoic acid/2-benzoyl benzoic acid and evaluated for their anticonvulsant and neuroprotective effect. N-(6-methoxybenzothiazol-2-yl)-4-oxo-4-phenylbutanamide (2f) emerged as the most effective anticonvulsant with
