1,3-Difurfurylbenzimidazolium chloride monohydrate
The title compound, C17H15N2O2
+·Cl−·H2O, was synthesized from benzimidazole and furfryl chloride in dimethylformamide. The cationic benzimidazolium ring is connected to two furan rings via methylene bridges. The furan rings make dihedral angle of 79.09 (18)° with respect to each other, and make dihedral angles of 73.92 (12) and 72.58 (13)° with respect to the benzimidazole ring. O—H⋯Cl, C—H⋯O and C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds and C—H⋯π interactions contribute to the stabilization of the crystal structure. Furthermore, there is a π–π interaction between adjacent five- and six-membered rings of the benzimidazole groups [centroid–centroid distance = 3.5305 (8) Å]
1-Benzyl-3-[(trimethylsilyl)methyl]benzimidazolium chloride monohydrate
The title compound, C18H23N2Si+·Cl−·H2O, was synthesized from 1-[(trimethylsilyl)methyl]benzimidazole and benzyl chloride in dimethylformamide. The benzimidazole ring system is approximately planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.022 (2) Å, and makes an angle of 74.80 (12)° with the phenyl ring. The crystal packing is stabilized by O—H⋯Cl, C—H⋯Cl, C—H⋯O and C—H⋯π interactions between symmetry-related molecules together with π–π stacking interactions between the imidazolium and benzene rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.5690 (15) Å] and between the benzene rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.7223 (14) Å]
1-(Prop-2-en-1-yl)-3-[(trimethylsilyl)methyl]benzimidazolium bromide monohydrate
In the title compound, C14H21N2Si+·Br−·H2O, the benzimidazole ring system is almost planar [maximum deviation = 0.021 (2) Å]. In the crystal, O—H⋯Br and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the ions via the O atoms of the water molecules. In addition, there are π–π stacking interactions between the centroids of the benzene and imidazole rings of the benzimidazole ring system [centroid–centroid distances = 3.521 (3) and 3.575 (2) Å]
Synthesis and carbonic anhydrase inhibitory properties of amino acid – coumarin/quinolinone conjugates incorporating glycine, alanine and phenylalanine moieties
N-Protected amino acids (Gly, Ala and Phe) were reacted with amino substituted coumarin and quinolinone derivatives, leading to the corresponding N-protected amino acid-coumarin/quinolinone conjugates. The carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) inhibitory activity of the new compounds was assessed against various human (h) isoforms, such as hCA I, hCA II, hCA IV and hCA XII. The quinolinone conjugates were inactive as enzyme inhibitors, whereas the coumarins were ineffective hCA I/II inhibitors (KIs > 50 μM) but were submicromolar hCA IV and XII inhibitors, with inhibition constants ranging between 92 nM and 1.19 μM for hCA IV, and between 0.11 and 0.79 μM for hCA XII. These coumarin derivatives, as many others reported earlier, thus show an interesting selective inhibitory profile for the membrane-bound over the cytosolic CA isoforms
Synthesis and carbonic anhydrase I, II, IV and XII inhibitory properties of N-protected amino acid – sulfonamide conjugates
N-protected amino acids (Gly, Ala and Phe protected with Boc and Z groups) were reacted with sulfonamide derivatives, leading to the corresponding N-protected amino acid-sulfonamide conjugates. The carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) inhibitory activity of the new compounds was assessed against four human (h) isoforms, hCA I, hCA II, hCA IV and hCA XII. Among them, hCA II, IV and XII are antiglaucoma drug targets, being involved in aqueous humor secretion within the eye. Low nanomolar inhibition was measured against all four isoforms with the 20 reported sulfonamides, but no selective inhibitory profiles, except for some CA XII-selective derivatives, were observed. hCA I, II and XII were generally better inhibited by sulfonamides incorporating longer scaffolds and Gly/Ala, whereas the best hCA IV inhibitors were homosulfanilamide derivatives, incorporating Phe moieties. The amino acid-sulfonamide conjugates show good water solubility and effective hCA II, IV and XII inhibition, and may be considered as interesting candidates for antiglaucoma studies
Dichloridobis[5-nitro-1-trimethylsilylmethyl-1H-benzimidazole-κN 3]cobalt(II) N,N-dimethylformamide solvate
The title compound, [CoCl2(C11H15N3O2Si)2]·C3H7NO, was synthesized from 5-nitro-1-trimethylsilylmethyl-1H-benzimidazole and cobalt(II) chloride in dimethylformamide. The CoII atom is coordinated in a distorted tetrahedral environment by two Cl atoms and two N atoms. In the crystal structure, there are a number of C—H⋯Cl and C—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding interactions between symmetry-related molecules
(E)-1,1′-Bis[(E)-but-2-enyl]-3,3′-(propane-1,3-diyl)bis(1H-benzimidazol-3-ium) dibromide monohydrate
The title compound, C25H30N4
2+·2Br−·H2O, was synthesized from 1,1′-propylenedibenzimidazole and (E)-1-bromobut-2-ene in dimethylformamide solution. The two benzimidazole ring systems are essentially planar, with maximum deviations of 0.011 (4) and 0.023 (3) Å. The dihedral angle between these two ring systems is 25.87 (15)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular O—H⋯Br and C—H⋯Br hydrogen-bonding interactions. Atmospheric water was incorporated into the crystal structure
Determination of minerals and trace elements in soils and the relation with its concentrations in sugar beets
Twelve sugar beets and corresponding soil samples from the plantation near Malatya, Turkey were analyzed for mineral and trace element contents. Thirteen metals (Al, Ca, Cd, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Na, Ni, Pb, Se and Zn) were selected and analyzed quantitatively by FAAS/FAES and ETAAS. Principal component analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis were used to explore samples based on the element contents. The principal component analysis analysis of sugar beet samples yielded five principal components which were able to explain about 84% of the total variance in the data set. The number of principal components that are higher than one was four for the soil samples and were able to explain 83% of total variance. Hierarchical cluster analysis of sugar beet samples and corresponding soil samples resulted in two main clusters based on the geographic regions of the samples. In terms of the elements being analyzed, the hierarchical cluster analysis method resulted in 3-4 clusters of the elements in both sugar beet and soil samples
