Chromatographic separation was carried out by using YMC Triart C18 (150 mm × 4.6 mm, 3μm, YMC, USA) column. 5% (v/v) acetonitrile-water binary mixture at pH 9.5 was used as a mobile phase. Metronidazole was chosen as an internal standard. Flow rate was 0.8 ml/min and column temperature was 25 °C in chromatographic separation. The studied wavelengths for thiamazole and metronidazole are 260 and 340 nm, respectively. This proposed method was suitably validated with respect to accuracy, precision, linearity, the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ). The calibration graph of thiamazole was linear from 4 ppm to 14 ppm. The recovery of the 5 mg thiamazole containing commercial tablet (Thyromazol) was 100.059%. The proposed RPLC method was successfully applied to the determination of thiamazole in commercial tablet formulation.

  • Cool Reaction the Endothermic Reaction Between SCIENTIFIC Barium Hydroxide and Ammonium Thiocyanate
    Cool Reaction The Endothermic Reaction Between SCIENTIFIC Barium Hydroxide and Ammonium Thiocyanate Introduction Many reactions produce heat, in fact when people think of chemical reactions, heat production is often expected. However, endothermic reactions, reactions which consume heat, can be just as exciting. One of the most striking examples of this is when the solids barium hydroxide and ammonium thiocyanate are mixed together in a beaker. Materials Ammonium thiocyanate, NH4SCN, 10 g Stirring rod Barium hydroxide octahydrate, Ba(OH)28H2O, 20 g Thermometer graduated to at least –30 °C Erlenmeyer flask, small, with stopper, or a 50-mL beaker Safety Precautions Barium salts are toxic by ingestion. Ammonium thiocyanate is also toxic by ingestion. Use caution when handling the beaker or flask. Use tongs if available. The temperatures involved are cold enough to freeze skin. Ammonia vapor is very irritating to eyes and the respiratory tract. Do not allow students to inhale this gas. Wear chemical splash goggles, chemical-resistant gloves, and a chemical-resistant apron. Please review current Material Safety Data Sheets for additional safety, handling, and disposal information. Procedure 1. Transfer 20 g of barium hydroxide and 10 g of ammonium thiocyanate to a flask and mix with a glass or plastic stirring rod. 2. In less than two minutes the solids become liquid. A thermometer placed in the mixture shows the temperature falling far below freezing. An ammonia odor is evident to all who are near the flask. 3. Place the flask in a small puddle of water and your students will clearly see just how cool this reaction is; the water will freeze the flask to the counter top.

Brimble Received: 9 March 2017; Accepted: 7 April 2017; Published: 12 April 2017 Abstract: The application of alkyl and aryl substituted cyanamides in synthetic chemistry has diversified multi-fold in recent years. In this review, we discuss recent advances (since 2012) in the chemistry of cyanamides and detail their application in cycloaddition chemistry, aminocyanation reactions, as well as electrophilic cyanide-transfer agents and their unique radical and coordination chemistry. Keywords: cyanamide; synthesis; aminocyanation; cycloaddition; electrophilic cyanation; radical reaction; coordination chemistry 1. Introduction Cyanamide enjoys a rich chemical history, which can be traced to its unique and chemically promiscuous nitrogen-carbon-nitrogen (NCN) connectivity. The chemistry of the nitrile-substituted amino-group of the ‘cyanamide-moiety’ is dominated by an unusual duality of a nucleophilic sp3-amino nitrogen and an electrophilic nitrile unit. The reported use of unsubstituted cyanamide (NH2CN) and metal cyanamides (MNCN, where M = metal) date back as far as the late 19th century, where the likes of calcium cyanamide (CaNCN) was used as a fertilizer, and later as source of ammonia and nitric acid, which fueled the industrial production of metal cyanamides. In contrast, the reported use of the corresponding substituted organic cyanamides (RNHCN or RR’NCN) gathered pace only in more recent years.

Al-Amily * and Mohammed Hassan Mohammed Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, College of Pharmacy, University of Baghdad, Baghdad 10047, Iraq; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 1 September 2019; Accepted: 16 October 2019; Published: 22 October 2019 Abstract: Histone deacetylase inhibitors with zinc binding groups often exhibit drawbacks like non-selectivity or toxic effects. Thus, there are continuous efforts to modify the currently available inhibitors or to discover new derivatives to overcome these problems. One approach is to synthesize new compounds with novel zinc binding groups. The present study describes the utilization of acyl thiourea functionality, known to possess the ability to complex with metals, to be a novel zinc binding group incorporated into the designed histone deacetylase inhibitors. N-adipoyl monoanilide thiourea (4) and N-pimeloyl monoanilide thiourea (5) have been synthesized and characterized successfully. They showed inhibition of growth of human colon adenocarcinoma and mouse hepatoblastoma cells with low cytotoxic effect against normal human breast cells. Their binding mode to the active site of several histone deacetylases has been studied by docking and the results gave a preliminary indication that they could be successful histone deacetylase inhibitors. Keywords: histone deacetylase inhibitors; acyl thiourea derivatives; zinc binding group; distance from zinc ion 1. Introduction Histone deacetylases (HDACs) comprise a class of enzymes that catalyze the deacetylation of the "-amino groups of lysine residues at the N-termini of histones [1], proteins that act as a core for DNA compaction into nucleosomes that comprise chromatins [2].
