The main building blocks have been synthetized following a previously established synthetic route, starting from lithiated 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxyallene and a chiral D-glyceraldehyde-derived aldonitrone. The obtained 1,2-oxazine undergoes a stereoselective Lewis acid-promoted rearrangement leading to a bicyclic ketone which can be transformed into the corresponding carbohydrate mimetic with two straightforward steps: reduction of the carbonyl group followed by the cleavage of the N-benzyl and N-O bonds leads to an enantiopure aminopyran derivative. In the present work several transformations were made from this key building block including the conversion to the corresponding stable azidopyran prepared by a copper-catalyzed diazotransfer. Using the amino group and choosing adequate linkers, a library of multivalent compounds was prepared via Schotten-Baumann reaction or reductive amination. Additionally, different conditions for the Huisgen-Sharpless-Meldal cycloaddition were used to synthesize carbohydrate mimetics with different degrees of multivalency. In this approach, aspects that can influence multivalency binding were considered as linker length, symmetry and number of pyran ligands. As final and most challenging step, some of the obtained carbohydrate mimetics could successfully be polysulfated and tested with and without sulfate groups in a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) inhibition assay as potential selectin inhibitors. The tested compounds showed IC 50 values from micro- to nanomolar range (for L- and P- selectin), which are promising results for such conjugates. Overall, a straightforward synthetic route towards new multivalent carbohydrate mimetics was developed and the first results were obtained from the SPR inhibition assays providing some leads to further development of selectin inhibitors. 3 German abstract German abstract Ziel dieser Arbeit war die Darstellung neuer enantiomerenreiner multivalenter Kohlenhydratmimetika und die Evaluierung ihre Aktivität als potentielle Selektin-Inhibitoren. Der zentrale Baustein wurde ausgehend von einer zuvor etablierten Methode aus lithiiertem 2- (Trimethylsilyl)ethoxyallen und einem chiralen von D-Glyceraldehyd abgeleiteten Aldonitron synthetisiert. Das erhaltene 1,2-Oxazin wurde durch eine stereoselektive Lewis-Säure- induzierte Umlagerung in ein bicyclisches Keton umgewandelt, welches dann in zwei direkten Schritten in das Kohlenhydratmimetika übergeführt wurde: die Reduktion der Carbonyl-Gruppe und die anschließende Spaltung der N-Benzyl- und der N-O-Bindungen liefert ein Aminopyran. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden verschiedene Transformationen mit diesem Schlüsselbaustein durchgeführt, zum Beispiel die Darstellung des entsprechenden stabilen Azidopyrans durch Kupfer-katalysierten Diazotransfer. Durch die freie Aminogruppe und adequate Linker konnte eine Vielzahl von multivalenten Verbindungen durch Schotten- Baumann-Reaktion oder durch reduktive Aminierung dargestellt werden. Zusätzlich wurden unter verschiedenen Reaktionsbedingungen der Huisgen-Meldal-Sharpless-Reaktion Verbindungen mit unterschiedlichem Grad an Multivalenz synthetisiert. Dabei wurden verschiedene

Biographical Memoir COPYRIGHT 1975 NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES WASHINGTON D.C. EDWARD C. KENDALL March 8, 1886-May 4, 1972 BY DWIGHT J. INGLE DWARD CALVIN KENDALL isolated thyroxine from the thyroid E gland; he and associates crystallized glutathione and estab- lished its chemical structure; and he and associates isolated a series of steroid compounds from the adrenal cortex and con- tributed importantly to the determination of the structure and synthesis of several of them. With Philip S. Hench, he con- ceived the idea that cortisone might be useful in treating rheumatoid arthritis, and they planned clinical studies that confirmed the hypothesis. Kendall also initiated and partici- pated in a number of related studies. During his professional life he was called "Nick" by close friends and by his wife. He was referred to as "The Chief" by some of his laboratory associates, but commonly he was ad- dressed with deference, as "Doctor Kendall." Edward C. Kendall, the third child of George S. and Eva F. Kendall, was born March 8, 1886, at South Norwalk, Connecti- cut. The home was a citadel for religious teachings. The father, a dentist by profession, took an active interest in com- munity affairs. Edward attended the Franklin Elementary School and, for two years, South Norwalk High School.

Sie stellt einen Beitrag zur Biochemiegeschichte des 19. Jahrhunderts dar, ein Arbeitsgebiet, das mich als Biochemikerin besonders interessierte. Die Zielsetzung der Arbeit bestand darin, den wissenschaftlichen Werdegang des physiologischen Chemikers Felix Hop- pe-Seyler darzustellen und in diesem Zusammenhang die inner- und außerwissen- schaftlichen Faktoren der Disziplinengenese der physiologischen Chemie im 19. Jahr- hundert zu untersuchen. Der vorgegebene inhaltliche Rahmen der Studie machte nach einer kritischen Sichtung des zugänglichen Quellenmaterials zunächst eine sinnvolle Beschränkung desselben notwendig. In den Mittelpunkt der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden daher die wissen- schaftshistorisch noch unerschlossenen Briefe Hoppe-Seylers an seinen Lehrer Rudolf Virchow, an Emil Du Bois-Reymond, Wilhelm Ostwald, Heinrich Caro, Emil Erlen- meyer und den Verleger Karl Trübner, Schreiben Eduard Pflügers an Emil Du Bois- Reymond und Willy Kühnes an Rudolf Virchow sowie weitere handschriftliche Quel- len zum institutionengeschichtlichen Hintergrund aus dem Archiv der Berlin- Brandenburgischen Akademie der Wissenschaften, den Straßburger Archives départe- mentales du Bas-Rhin, dem Geheimen Staatsarchiv Preußischer Kulturbesitz Berlin, der Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin, dem Deutschen Museum München und dem Universi- tätsarchiv der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin gestellt.

The most common organic acids are the carboxylic acids, whose acidity is associated with their carboxyl group – COOH. Sulfonic acids, containing the group – SO2OH, are relatively stronger acids. Alcohols, with – OH, can act as acids but they are usually very weak. The relative stability of the conjugate base of the acid determines its acidity. Other groups can also confer acidity, usually weakly: the thiol group –SH, the enol group, and the phenol group. In biological systems, organic compounds containing these groups are generally referred to as organic acids. 2 - Characteristics In general, organic acids are weak acids and do not dissociate completely in water, where as the strong mineral acids do. Lower molecular mass organic acids such as formic and lactic acids are miscible in water, but higher molecular mass organic acids, such as benzoic acid, are insoluble in molecular (neutral) form. On the other hand, most organic acids are very soluble in organic solvents. p-Toluene sulfonic acid is a comparatively strong acid used in organic chemistry often because it is able to dissolve in the organic reaction solvent. Exceptions to these solubility characteristics exist in the presence of other substituents that affect the polarity of the compound.
