The Effect of Selenium Supplementation on the NMR Proton Relaxation Time T1 in Plasma

Selenium has been identified as an essential dietary trace e1ementQ)which is a component of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px)(₂)and a cytochrome C-like protein(₃), The enzyme,the four subunits of which each contain one atom of selenium in the form of selenocysteine, the selenium containing active centre being amenable to chemical modification, catalyses the reduction of H,O,and organic hydroperoxides to water.In this way GSH-Px plays an important role in the protection of the cell from oxidative stresses such as the superoxide anion,organic hydroperoxides and H₂O₂     

N,S-Substituted Dienes from Mono(arylthio)substituted- and S-, S,S-Substituted Dienes

Mono(thio)substituted dienes 1a-1b gave compounds 3a-c and 5d-g with piperazine and piperidine derivatives in dichloromethane. Compounds 8 , 9 , and 10 were obtained from the reactions of perchlorobutadiene ( 6 ) with 1,4-butanedithiol ( 7 ) in ethanol in the presence of sodium hydroxide. Compounds 12a-b , 13a-b were obtained from the reactions of perchlorobutadiene ( 6 ) with allylmercaptan (CH 2 =CH--CH 2 --SH) and mercaptoethanol (HO--CH 2 --CH 2 --SH).     

Iodine-Catalyzed Addition of Methyl Thioglycolate to Chalcones

Abstract

A series of novel β-mercapto carbonyl compounds (3a–z), methyl 2-(3-oxo-1,3-diarylpropylthio)acetate, were synthesized and characterized via iodine-catalyzed addition of methyl thioglycolate to chalcones (1a–z).

Synthesis of a Calix[4]crown‐6 Cone Conformer‐Based Oligomer and its Metal Cation Extraction Abilities

A new calixcrown‐6 oligomer 5 was synthesized by reacting a 1,3‐distal di‐amino derivative of cone p‐tert‐butylcalix[4]crown‐6 with malonyl dichloride. Extraction studies with precursor monomers 2 and 3 and oligomer 5 showed differences in their metal cation extraction behavior and selectivity. Precursors monomers 2 and 3 were selective for Hg²⁺; whereas, oligomer 5 showed high affinity towards both alkali (Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, and Cs⁺) and heavy metal cations (Cu²⁺, Cd²⁺, Hg²⁺ and Pb²⁺).
