Development and Validation of a Stability-Indicating LC Method for Determination of Bexarotene in Softgel Dosage Formulation

This study focuses on a novel liquid chromatographic approach that has been developed and approved for the quantitative determination of bexarotene (BXT), its potential impurities in drug substances and drug products. Chromatographic separation was developed on a Symmetry C₈ (150 × 4.6) mm 5-µm column with a mobile phase containing an isocratic mixture of acetonitrile:DI water:glacial acetic acid (650:350:7.5) v/v/v at a flow rate of 1.2 mL min^?1, and quantitation was carried out using ultraviolet detection at 262 nm for BXT and 290 nm for BHA with a column temperature of 35 °C. The resolution among butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), BXT and its process-related impurity-A was found to be greater than 5. Regression analysis confers an R value (correlation coefficient) higher than 0.998 for BHA, BXT and impurity-A. The detection level for BXT impurities was found at a level below 0.03% (0.18 µg mL^?1). The inter- and intra-day precisions for BHA, BXT and impurities were evaluated and found to have a %RSD of less than 3.0.     

Palladium-catalyzed regioselective synthesis of benzosultams from functionalized ynamides and benzotriazoles/tetrazoles

Palladium-catalyzed highly regioselective synthesis of benzotriazole appended benzosultams by the tandem-cyclization of functionalized ynamides with benzotriazoles has been accomplished. This transformation involves the formation of both CN and CC bonds in a single step. Donor solvents appear to enhance the yields of the products. The methodology is also applicable for the generation of triazole/tetrazole appended benzosultams.     

Design,synthesis, and biological activity studies of a new class of sulfonated aurones: First synthesis of acidoaurone isolated from Phyllanthus acidus

A novel series of aurones were designed by introducing sulfonic acid group on ring-A and ring-B of known natural aurones such as hispidol, sulfuretin, maritimetin, and aureusidin. These sulfonated aurones were synthesized by a unique approach. Sulfonation on ring-A or ring-B converts water-insoluble aurones into highly water-soluble aurones. The sulfonated aurones were tested for their antioxidant, antiinflammatory, and AChE inhibition activities along with their natural aurones. Ring-A sulfonated aurones displayed higher antioxidant activity, 5-LOX, and AChE inhibition in comparison with their corresponding natural aurones. Ring-B sulfonated aurones exhibited potent 5-LOX inhibitory activity and significant antioxidant activity. Acidoaurone, a first sulfonated aurone isolated from Phyllanthus acidus was synthesized for the first time and was well characterized using NMR, LC–MS, and further confirmed by HMBC.     

Catalytic deactivation of gold surface as a consequence of Prussian blue electrodeposition and removal

It is shown that the gold surface is catalytically deactivated and smoothened upon removal of the Prussian blue (PB)–gold nanocomposite formed on the gold surface. Atomic force microscopy proves surface smoothening after PB removal. The voltammetric responses of Ru(NH₃)₆Cl₃ on the smoothened surface remain unaffected, but the reactions that involve multistep and inner-sphere electron transfer are affected on the smoothened surface as exemplified by hydroquinone, ferrous oxalate redox reactions, and oxygen reduction. These effects are attributed to catalytic deactivation as a consequence of removal of the active sites.

Synthesis,Characterization, and In Vitro Antimicrobial Activity of Methyleneamine‐Linked Bis‐heterocycles

A new class of methyleneamine‐linked bis‐heterocycles that exhibit antimicrobial activity was synthesized. Bromination of 1 followed by condensation with thiourea gave 3 . The reaction of 3 with propargyl bromide in dry toluene under inert atmosphere led to the formation of 4 . Its subsequent reaction with different nitrile oxides using CuSO₄.5H₂O–sodiumascorbate system in a 2:1 mixture of water and tert‐butyl alcohol yielded the title compounds 6a , 6b , 6c , 6d , 6e , 6f , 6g , 6h , 6i , 6j , 6k , 6l in good yields. The identities of these compounds were confirmed following elemental analysis, IR, ¹H, ¹³C NMR, and mass spectral studies. All the title compounds exhibited pronounced in vitro antibacterial and antifungal activities.     

Compton Spectrum Due to L-Shell Electrons

Compton spectrum due to L-shell electrons of thorium has been measured by the coincidence technique, using 279 keV incident gamma photons. The influence of L-shell electron momenta on the distribution of the scattered photons has been studied with reference to the Compton profile due to free electrons and compared with the exact and impulse hydrogenic theoretical models. Significant deviations are found between experimental and theoretical Compton spectra.     

Synthesis and Reactivity of Hydrolysis Products of Cyclic Phosphites with Amino Substituents

Abstract

Hydrolysis of several cyclic aminophosphites are discussed and compared with that of cyclic chloro/ phenoxy phosphites. An X-ray structure of a hydrolysis product, (C₆H₁₁NH₃)⁺O^?P(O)(H)(2,2′-OC₆H₄-C₆H₄OH) has been determined.
