  • Bioluminescence", Or "Ultraweak Chemiluminescence"
    Ultra-weak Photon (Biophoton ) Emissions (UPE)-Background Information By Ted Nissen M.A. M.T. Copyright © September 2006 Ted Nissen http://www.anatomyfacts.com/research/photonc.htm Introduction Basic Physics and Chemistry I wish I had paid more attention in my high school physics and chemistry classes but instead I counted ceiling tiles, wrote bad poetry and picked at my zits. With that in mind I will try to explain what I remember about photons, physics and chemistry in general Chemical Organization . What follows could have factual errors so beware. About 4.5 billion years (that is approximately 4500 million years-hard to imagine) ago our Sun formed as a result of hydrogen atoms (there are 118 elements of which 92 are naturally occurring. Periodic Table These are unique atoms which are detailed in the elemental table) compressing so much that the relatively weak electrical force exerted by the electrons (Like negative charges repel) of the hydrogen atoms could no longer oppose one another. Remember an atom is composed of electrons (-charge), which move in fixed orbits around the central nucleus, which contains protons (+ charge) and neutrons (neutral charge). The protons are held together by the strong nuclear force of the neutrons otherwise because like charges repel they would fly apart disintegrating all matter. Electrons (- charge) are held in their orbits around the protons (+ charge) because opposite charges attract. Likewise electrons normally repel adjacent atoms so that atoms don’t normally dissolve into one another. This is considered a relatively weak electrical force, which is a good thing because then under the right circumstances atoms can combine to form new elements.

Pyridazinones have been reported to possess variety of biological activities like antidiabetic, anticancer, anti-AIDS, cardiovascular, antiinflammatory, anticonvulsant and cerebroprotective, analgesics, antidepressant, anticonvulsant, antiasthmatic, anti-HIV1, antimicrobial, insecticidal etc. Various compounds such as Levosimendan, Amipizone, Indolidan, Imazodan and Pimobedan are few examples of pyridazinones that are active as cardiotonic agents. The synthesis of novel pyridazinone derivatives and investigation of their chemical and biological activities have gained more importance. The biological profile of new generations of pyridazinones presents much progress with regards to the old compounds.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: DEVELOPMENT of ARYL
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: DEVELOPMENT OF ARYL SILOXANE CROSS- COUPLING TECHNOLOGY AND ITS APPLICATION TO THE SYNTHESIS OF COLCHICINE AND ALLOCOLCHICINE DERIVATIVES William Michael Seganish, Doctor of Philosophy, 2005 Dissertation directed by: Professor Philip DeShong Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry One of the most versatile methods for the formation of aryl-aryl bonds is the palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction. Previous work in the DeShong laboratory has demonstrated the utility of aryl siloxanes for the palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of aryl iodides, bromides, and chlorides, as well as new synthetic methods for the formation of aryl siloxanes. The work reported herein details (1) the synthesis of aryl siloxanes using ortho-metallation techniques (2) the coupling of aryl bis(catechol) silicates with aryl triflates, and (3) the application of aryl siloxane coupling technology to the synthesis of colchicine and allocolchicine derivatives. The synthesis of aryl siloxanes had previously been performed using either metal-halogen exchange, or transition metal-catalyzed silylation. These techniques necessitate the use of an aryl halide as the starting material. The application of ortho- metallation conditions avoids this requirement and allows for the synthesis of siloxanes directly from the unfunctionalized arene. Using this approach, ortho-ether and carbamate siloxanes were prepared in good yields, however, o-benzamide siloxanes could not be prepared using this method. The coupling of aryl triflates with aryl siloxanes had previously proven problematic due to competitive hydrolysis of the triflate. The use of aryl bis(catechol) silicates as siloxane surrogates facilitated the coupling of aryl triflates and iodides bearing a range of functional groups in excellent yield.
