Metabolites from Marine Macroorganisms of the Red Sea Acting as Promoters or Inhibitors of Amylin Aggregation [PDF]
Amylin is part of the endocrine pancreatic system that contributes to glycemic control, regulating blood glucose levels. However, human amylin has a high tendency to aggregate, forming isolated amylin deposits that are observed in patients with type 2 ...

Secondary metabolites from the Endophytic fungi Fusarium decemcellulare F25 and their antifungal activities [PDF]
Seven new compounds, including three isocoumarins (1–3), three pyrrolidinone derivatives (8–10), and one pentaene diacid (15), together with 13 known compounds, were isolated from the rice culture of the endophytic fungus Fusarium decemcellulare F25 ...

Synthesis of New Optically Active 2-Pyrrolidinones [PDF]
A new class of optically active 2-pyrrolidinones was synthesized, starting from S-pyroglutamic acid, a well known natural chiral synthon. The synthetic design followed led to the insertion of various substituents at positions 1 and 5 of the 2 ...

Co(II) complexes with 2-pyrrolidinone [PDF]
For the known complexes CoL3X2 (X = Cl, Br, and L = 2-pyrrolidinone) a more detailed infrared study was made. Together with the electronic spectra this study indicates dissociation of CoL2X3 into CoL2X2 + L in chloroform and acetone solution. The conductivity measurements and the molecular weight determinations also support dissociation.

One-Pot Diastereoselective Synthesis of Pyrrolopiperazine-2,6-diones by a Ugi/Nucleophilic Substitution/N-Acylation Sequence. [PDF]
The diastereoselective synthesis of two families of pyrrolopiperazine-2,6-diones is presented. These compounds were prepared by one-pot Ugi/nucleophilic substitution/N-acylation/debenzoylation/(elimination) sequences.

Synthesis of (S)-Vasicol and (S)-3-Hydroxy-2-pyrrolidinone
Stating from (S)-malic acid, a flexible approach to (S)-3-hydroxy-2-pyrrolidinone and (S)-1-alkyl-3-hydroxy-2-pyrrolidinones was reported. Using this method, the first total syntheses of (-)-vasicol as well as deaminovasicol were accomplished, which allowed the revision and clarification the confusion about the structure of naturally occurring ...
