General description

Propionamide on γ-irradiation reacts with sulfur dioxide and this reaction has been studied by ESR spectroscopy, gas absorption measurements and X-ray diffraction.

Application

Propionamide was used as adsorbent in the determination of adsorption isotherms of acetamide and propionamide on multi-wall carbon nanotube. It was used in a robust screening method to study biotransformations using (+)-γ-lactamase enzyme.

Beta-thiolactones monosubstituted in the 3-position by alkyl and carbamoyl groups undergo nucleophilic ring opening by arenethiolates through a process involving an S(N)2-type attack at the 4-position leading to 3-arylthiopropionates substituted in the 2-position. These thiocarboxylates can be trapped in situ

We investigated the effects of (S)-N-[2-(1,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2H-indeno-[5,4]furan-8-yl)ethyl]propionamide (ramelteon, TAK-375), a novel MT1/MT2 receptor agonist, on nocturnal sleep in freely moving monkeys and compared these results with those of melatonin and zolpidem. Treatment with ramelteon (0.03 and 0.3 mg/kg, p.o.) significantly shortened

Several studies have demonstrated a positive correlation between tumor progression and expression of extracellular proteinases such as matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). MMP-2 and MMP-9 have become attractive targets for cancer research because of their increased expression in human malignant tumor tissues
