The reaction of 2,3-seco-5 alpha-cholestane-2,3-diol and 4 alpha-methyl-2,3-seco-5 alpha-cholestane-2,3-diol with o-nitrophenyl selenocyanate was studied. The diols were synthesized from cholesterol.

All stereoisomers of adenine and guanine methylene-3-fluoromethylenecyclopropane analogues of nucleosides 9a, 9b, 10a, 10b, 11a, 11b, 12a, and 12b were synthesized and their antiviral activities were evaluated. A highly convergent approach permitted the synthesis of all these analogues using a

Zinc/thiolate (cysteine) coordination occurs in a very large number of proteins. These coordination sites are thermodynamically quite stable. Yet the redox chemistry of thiolate ligands confers extraordinary reactivities on these sites. The significance of such ligand-centered reactions is that they
p-Xyleneselenocyanate (p-XSC) is one of the most investigated selenium compounds in cancer-prevention and -therapy. Despite the potent anticancer property, there is still no proper method to perform the quantitative analysis of p-XSC in plasma. In this investigation, we aimed at
