Addition of phenylacetylene to a magnesium complex of monoiminoacenaphtheneone (dpp-mian).

Dalton Trans. 44 , 20532-41, (2015)

In the presence of formic acid, acenaphthenequinone (AQ) reacts with one molar equivalent of 2,6-diisopropylaniline in toluene to give monoiminoacenaphtheneone (3, dpp-mian) in good yield. Reduction of compound 3 with an excess of magnesium in thf results in ...

Planarity and constraint of the carbonyl groups in 1,2-diones are determinants for selective inhibition of human carboxylesterase 1.

J. Med. Chem. 50 , 5727-34, (2007)

Carboxylesterases (CE) are ubiquitous enzymes responsible for the detoxification of xenobiotics, including numerous clinically used drugs. Therefore, the selective inhibition of these proteins may prove useful in modulating drug half-life and bioavailability....

CaCl(2) as a bifunctional reusable catalyst: diversity-oriented synthesis of 4H-pyran library under ultrasonic irradiation.

Mol. Divers. 16(4) , 669-83, (2012)

CaCl(2) is applied as an efficient reusable and eco-friendly bifunctional catalyst for the one-pot three-component synthesis of 4H-pyrans under ultrasonic irradiation. A broad range of substrates including the aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes, indoline-2...

An environmental quinoid polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, acenaphthenequinone, modulates cyclooxygenase-2 expression through reactive oxygen species generation and nuclear factor kappa B activation in A549 cells.

Toxicol. Sci. 95(2) , 348-55, (2007)

Diesel exhaust particles (DEPs) contain oxygen-containing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) called quinoid PAHs. Some quinoid PAHs generate free radicals as they undergo enzymatic and nonenzymatic redox cycling with their corresponding semiquinone radic...

Activation of 5-lipoxygenase and NF-kappa B in the action of acenaphthenequinone by modulation of oxidative stress.

Toxicol. Sci. 101(1) , 152-8, (2008)

Quinoid polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are potent redox-active compounds that undergo enzymatic and nonenzymatic redox cycling with their semiquinone radical. We previously reported that acenaphthenequinone (AcQ) can damage human lung epithelial A549 cells ...

Mechanism of allergic cross-reactions--II. Cross-stimulation, by chemically unrelated ligands, of rat basophilic leukemia cells sensitized with an anti-DNP IgE antibody.

Mol. Immunol. 28(6) , 655-9, (1991)

Serotonin release from rat basophilic leukemia (RBL) cells, sensitized with a DNP-binding monoclonal IgE, was stimulated with solid surface (polystyrene)-bound DNP-amino acids. The stimulatory potency of DNP-amino acids was dependent on the structure of amino...
