Norbormide [5-(alpha-hydroxy-alpha-2-pyridylbenzyl)-7-(alpha-2-pyridylbenzylidene)-5-norbornene-2,3-dicarboximide] (NRB, 1), an existing but infrequently used rodenticide, is known to be uniquely toxic to rats but relatively harmless to other rodents and mammals. A series of NRB-related analogues were prepared to investigate the structural features responsible for

We have developed a scaffold material consisting of a covalently-bonded structure of alginate and atelocollagen (AtCol). Addition of calcium ions caused the material to form a hydrogel (alginate-modified AtCol gel). The condition of the alginate-modified AtCol gel could be controlled

Reversed-phase thin-layer chromatographic (RP TLC) retention coefficients for a newly designed series of N-phenyl-3-methyl succinimide derivatives, of a rationally expected anticonvusant activity, were determined as parameters of their lipophilicity. Basic pharmacokinetic descriptors of the agents were calculated in silico with

Dual-frequency relaxation-assisted two-dimensional infrared (RA 2DIR) spectroscopy was used to investigate energy transport in polyethylene glycol (PEG) oligomers of different length, having 0, 4, 8, and 12 repeating units and end-labeled with azido and succinimide ester moieties (azPEGn). The energy
The rapid racemization of aspartic acid (Asp) residues in peptides and proteins is due mainly to the succinimide intermediate. However, there should be another mechanism for Asp racemization without intermediacy of the succinimide. The direct H-atom abstraction from the C(alpha)-atom
