analogue of morphine) and are primarily used as analgesics.[1] Discussion: Morphine has a 4-ring structure with a tertiary nitrogen (permits anchoring to opioid receptors) and 2 OH groups shown in Figure 1. When the benzene OH group is substituted for a methyl group‚ you obtain 3-methoxymorphine (codeine) shown in Figure 2.[2] Morphine’s route of administration

The nonmutated form of DMPK functions in the production of protein kinase serine; this enzyme plays a role in intracellular communication and in the regulation of myosin phosphate. When DMPK is mutated‚ the proteins CUG-BP1‚ MBNL1 and INSR are displaced causing the splicing of troponin pre-mRNA which causes malfunctions in the cardiac conduction system‚ dominance of a chloride channel that causes myotonia‚ dominance of an insulin receptor that affects the sufficiency of insulin‚ and dominance of

Traditional way of synthesizing sensitive rhodamine starts with rhodamine B‚ amino compound‚ and some alkali additive in the presence of weak base. However‚ for RH-PY‚ the stearic hindrance of pyrene slows the reactivity‚ and the reaction does not go to completion. Therefore‚ the reaction procedure was modified as follows. First‚ HATU and DIPEA were used to activate the carboxyl group of rhodamine B‚ then the activated rhodamine B was reacted with 1-aminopyrene. By introducing this method‚ the reaction

Name: David Kennedy Date: 11/5/14 Project No: 131 Title: Butyl 2-Cyano-(3‚5 dichloro-phenyl)-2-propenoate Abstract: The targeted trisubstituted ethylene compound Butyl 2-Cyano-(3‚5 dichloro-phenyl)-2-propenoate and its copolymer with styrene was prepared in this lab. The base catalyzed Knoevengael condensation of butyl cyanoacetate and corresponding aldehyde led to the forming Butyl 2-Cyano-(3‚5 dichloro-phenyl)-2-propenoate. The analyses that were used to prove its composition and structure

Introduction In this lab‚ caproic acid was synthesized in a multi-step process that involved the synthesis of three intermediates – diethyl n-butylmalonate‚ potassium n-butylmalonate‚ and n-butyl malonic acid respectively. An IR was used to characterize the starting material‚ n-bromobutane‚ and the first intermediate‚ diethyl n-butylmalonate; while IR and NMR were used to characterize the final product‚ caproic acid. Reactions‚ Mechanism and Theory Caproic acid a.k.a n-hexanoic acid is a carboxylic

high doses of DEHP interferes with the development of the male reproductive system and is linked to liver cancer. When the investigators ranked the chemicals according to how much preschool-aged children were likely to ingest‚ the flame retardant tris(2-chloroethyl) phosphate (TCEP) came out on top. TCEP has been linked to cancer and brain damage in mice‚ but like many of these household chemicals we don’t know whether it might be dangerous to
