Sea Anemones Responding to Sex Hormones, Oxybenzone, and Benzyl Butyl Phthalate: Transcriptional Profiling and in Silico Modelling Provide Clues to Decipher Endocrine Disruption in Cnidarians

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022
Endocrine disruption is suspected in cnidarians, but questions remain how occurs. Steroid sex hormones are detected in corals and sea anemones even though these animals do not have estrogen receptors and their repertoire of steroidogenic enzymes appears ...

1-(4-{[3,5-bis({[3,5-Dimethyl-4-(4-methyl-3,5-dioxo-1,2,4-triazolidin-1-yl)-phenoxy]methyl})phenyl]methoxy}-2,6-dimethyl-phenyl)-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazolidine-3,5-dione

Molbank, 2022
Appropriately substituted N-centered urazolyl radicals are capable of generating interesting cage-like structures upon forming N-N bonds. The radicals are generated by the oxidation of the corresponding NH urazole precursors.
