In this work we report the synthesis, crystal structures, and magnetic behavior of 2p-3d-4f heterospin systems containing the nitroxide radical 4-azido-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl radical (N3tempo). These compounds were synthesized through a one-pot reaction by using [Cu(hfac)2], [Ln(hfac)3] (hfac = hexafluoroacetylacetonate, Ln = Dy(III), Tb(III) or Gd(III)), and the N3tempo radical. Depending on the stoichiometric ratio used, the synthesis leads to penta- or trimetallic compounds, with molecular formulas [Cu3Ln2(hfac)8(OH)4(N3tempo)] (Ln = Gd, Tb, Dy) and [CuLn2(hfac)8(N3tempo)2(H2O)2] (Ln = Gd, Dy). The magnetic properties of all compounds were investigated by direct current (dc) and alternating current (ac) measurements. The ac magnetic susceptibility measurements of Tb(III)- and Dy(III)-containing compounds of both families revealed slow relaxation of the magnetization, with magnetic quantum tunneling in zero field.

In this work, a new series of arysulfonylhydrazine-1H-1,2,3-triazole derivatives were synthesized, and their ability to inhibit the in vitro replication of HSV-1 was evaluated. Among the 1,2,3-triazole derivatives, 1-[(5″-methyl-1″-(4‴-fluorophenylamino)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4″-yl)carbonyl]-2-(4'-methylphenylsulfonyl)hydrazine and 1-[(5'-methyl-1'-(2″,5″-dichlorophenylamino)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4'-yl)carbonyl]-2-(phenylsulfonyl)hydrazine, with IC(50) values of 1.30 and 1.26 μM, respectively, displayed potent activity against HSV-1. Because these compounds have low cytotoxicity, their selectivity indices are high. Under the assay conditions, they have better performance than does the reference compound acyclovir. The structures of all of the compounds were confirmed by one- and two-dimensional NMR techniques ((1)H, (13)C-APT, COSY-(1)H×(1)H and HETCOR (1)J(CH)) and by elemental analysis.

Recebido em 7/4/05; aceito em 21/7/05; publicado na web em 16/2/06 1,2,3-TRIAZOLIC HETEROCYCLES: HISTORY, PREPARATIONS, APPLICATIONS AND PHARMACOLOGICAL ACTIVITIES. The 1,2,3-triazole, known since the end of 19 th century, is a very widely used heterocyclic system present in many synthetic substances and commercial pharmaceutical compounds. In fact, 1,2,3-triazoles show several applications in many areas especially as medicines against many diseases like cancer, AIDS, Parkinson and Alzheimer. Nowadays there is a large variety of known methods to obtain these heterocyclic compounds comprising mainly three synthetic routes. Nevertheless, there is no article that gives an objective overview of the synthetic methods for obtaining these kinds of azoheterocycles. This paper presents a brief history of this class of compounds, and a synthetic discussion concerning the main synthetic methods for its preparation, such as cyclization through hydrazones, concerted cycloadditon [2+3] and pseudopericyclic cyclization -and some others of restricted application, but also important. Finally, this paper also provides a brief overview on pharmacological applications of some 1,2,3-triazoles.
