2013) Protease inhibitors can be used in medicine to treat different diseases and viruses which depend on protease for its mechanism of action. Protease inhibitors are most commonly used in the treatment of HIV/AIDS. Protease is responsible for the synthesis of new viral cells which would cause HIV to spread to uninfected cells. When the protease is introduced however‚ non-infectious vial particles are produced. The protease involved in HIV is called the HIV protease which is an aspartic protease (San

DNA synthesis inhibitors Nucleic acid inhibitors are chemicals which inhibit the production of nucleic acids including both DNA and RNA. DNA and RNA inhibitors inhibit enzyme action in DNA replication in the same way as the topoisomerase inhibitors we discussed earlier. Topoisomerase inhibitors (1) (10) are chemicals which interfere with the enzymes that allow DNA strands to separate and to re-join‚ a process that is required for the division of bacteria and without which DNA cannot effectively

SYNTHESIS OF THE PHARMACEUTICAL ASPIRIN (ACETYLSALICYLIC ACID) AIM: The aim for this experiment was to synthesise a small amount of aspirin with salicylic acid as the starting product and sulphuric acid as the catalyst. The product obtained from this reaction will be impure and will need to be purified. This will be done by recrystallization. We will then record the products’ melting point and calculate the yield in order to determine the degree of purity of the aspirin sample. Diagrammatic scheme

Abstract – The synthesis of 4-hydroxy-4‚4-diphenylbutn-2-one was a three week multi-step project. The steps involved protecting the ketone of ethyl acetoacetate with a ketal group‚ followed by preparation and reaction with Grignard‚ then purification by extraction and recrystallization. The yield was 78.5%‚ but there are impurities present suggested by 1H-NMR‚ IR‚ and TLC. However‚ the results do indicate the desired hydroxyketone was formed. Introduction: The purpose of this multi-step lab
