Six cis-dioxo molybdenum(vi) complexes of d-glucose derived ligands have been applied as catalysts for the selective transformation of organic sulfides to sulfoxides, and kinetics as well as mechanistic aspects of this reaction have been explored.
A series of d‐glucose derived N‐glycopeptides containing mefenamic acid have been synthesised and in vitro evaluation of all these molecules have been performed as COX‐2 (human) enzyme inhibitor using Enzymes Immuno Assay kit. These studies were further supported by docking experiments on human COX‐2 enzyme (PDB ID: 5IKR). All the compounds exhibited a fair amount of COX‐2 enzyme inhibition during both the modes of study and tryptophan derivative showed the best activity. Acute toxicity (LD50) in rat has also been evaluated using General Unrestricted Structure‐Activity Relationships (GUSAR) software, where acute oral toxicity for most of the molecules was found to be less than the pure mefenamic acid.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
