A new, selective, straightforward and general method for preparation of highly functionalized coronands or spiro derivatives bearing 1,2-dihydroxyacetophenone unit, under conventional conditions and ultrasonic irradiation, is reported. The reaction setup involves only one step, acylation of an α-chloro-3,4-dihydroxyacetophenone with phthaloyl

Several peptides were shown to undergo fragmentation during matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry to a degree which complicated their analysis using alpha-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid (CHCA) as a matrix, even at threshold laser irradiance. These peptides included synthetic peptides, peptides isolated

Squalene-hopene cyclase (SHC) is a useful model enzyme for predicting molecular interactions with oxidosqualene cyclase (OSC). Structure--activity relationships were investigated for numerous coumarin-derived inhibitors of SHC, and structural simplifications are suggested. Both umbelliferone and 2,4-dihydroxyacetophenone provide convenient starting nuclei for
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) is widely used for analysis of macromolecules like peptides and proteins. The analysis procedure is generally simple but must be adapted to the characteristics of the analytes. Therefore, specific matrices suitable for, e.g., hydrophobic
