Study on Inhibitors of Methionine Synthase Ⅷ: Synthesis of 2,5-Diamino-4-oxo-6- (3-butenyl) pyrimidine

Cobalamin-dependent methionine synthase plays a crucial role in folate metabolism and such would appear to be an excellent target for rational antifolate drug design. However, to date, no anticancer agents directed at this enzyme are available, but the enzyme is efficiently and specifically inhibited by N2O and this has proven invaluable for evaluating the biochemical consequence of enzyme inhibition and for mechanistic studies. [1,2] 2,5-Diamino-4-oxo-6-(3-butenyl) pyrimidine, a key intermediate in synthetic inhibitors of methionine synthase, was first synthesized using γbutenyl-β-ketoester and guanidine carbonate (Scheme 1).

A RANDOM FIXED POINT ITERATION FOR THREE RANDOM OPERATORS ON UNIFORMLY CONVEX BANACH SPACES

In the present paper we introduce a random iteration scheme for three random operators defined on a closed and convex subset of a uniformly convex Banach space and prove its convergence to a common fixed point of three random operators. The result is also an extersion of a known theorem in the corresponding non-random case.     

Moessbauer Investigation of the Ferromagnetic Coupling in Copper-Iron Polycyanides

One of the Prussian blue analogs, molecular magnet Cu3^Ⅲ [Fe^Ⅲ (CN)6]2.11.6H2 O, was investigated by Moessbauer spectroscopy. It was found that transition temperature was around Tc = 18.5 K from paramagnetic phase to ferromagnetic phase. The β value of the critical exponent is around 0.338 at magnetic ordering temperature.Therefore, the ferromagnetic coupling interaction of Cu-Fe cyanide could be clearly explained by spin wave theory.

Defect Structures in 4H-SiC Irradiated with Highly-energetic ^20Ne^4＋ and ^120Xe^26＋ Ions

The study of damage evolution in silicon carbide bombarded with energetic helium ions is important for the use of this material in future fusion reactors. Heavier inert gas atoms like Ne and Xe have similar behavior of diffusion and clustering with helium, and the comparison of damage accumulation behavior between energetic helium and heavier inert gas ions can reveal important aspects of underlying mechanisms. As an extension of our     

Possible triggering of solar activity to big earthquakes (Ms ≥ 8) in faults with near west-east strike in China

A big earthquake (Ms = 8.1) occurred at western Kunlun Mts gap on November 14, 2001. It is the biggest earthquake in China in the past 50 years and the only one with a magnitude bigger than 8 in China after Dangxiong Earthquake (M = 8) in Tibet in 1951. The big earthquake has drawn wide attention of scientists in seismological, geophysical, geological and astro-geodynamic circles. Scientists are interested in the occurrence regularity of the very big earthquakes and try to find out the fac…     

On the United Theory of the Family of Euler-Halley Type Methods with Cubical Convergence in Banach Spaces

The convergence problem of the family of Euler-Halley methods is considered under the Lipschitz condition with the L-average, and a united convergence theory with its applications is presented.     

ε-WEAKLY CHEBYSHEV SUBSPACES OF BANACH SPACES

We will define and characterize c-weakly Chebyshev subspaces of Banach spaces. We will prove that all closed subspaces of a Banach space X are ε-weakly Chebyshev if and only if X is reflexive.     

HUA’S THEOREM WITH FIVE ALMOSTE QUAL PRIME VARIABLES

§1. IntroductionIn the additive theory of prime numbers, one studies the representation of positive in-tegers by powers of primes. For the quadratic case, Hua [1] proved that each large integercongruent to 5 modulo 24 can be written as the sum of ?ve squ…     

Terahertz wave tomographic imaging with a Fresnel lens

We demonstrate three-dimensional tomographic imaging using a Fresnel lens with broadband terahertzpulses.Objects at various locations along the beam propagation path are uniquely imaged on the sameimaging plane using a Fresnel lens with different frequencies of the imaging beam.This procedure allowsthe reconstruction of an object's tomographic contrast image by assembling the frequency-dependentimages.
