Approaches to the synthesis of diselenols have led to isolation of several new organoselenium compounds. Removal of mercury, as HgS, from [1,3-diselenylpropan-2-olato(2–)-Se,Sel]-mercury(II) results in decomposition of the organoselenium fragment to selenetan-3-ol, 1,3-Dibromopropan-2-ol reacts with KSeCN to form 1-bromo-3-selenocyanatopropan-2-ol; the selenoethers 2-(benzyl- se1eno)fumaric acid [(Z)-PhCH2SeC(CO2H)=CHCO2H] and 2-(benzylseleno)succinic acid [PhCH2SeCH(CO2H)CH2CO2H] are formed by base-catalysed reaction of phenylmethaneselenol with acetylenedicarboxylic acid and maleic acid, respectively. The conformations adopted by PhCH2XCH(CO2H)CH2CO2H (X = S, Se) in acetone have been determined by 1H n.m.r. spectroscopy.

AbstractIn this article nanoscaled polyanilines (PANI) were prepared based on template-free method in the presence of dicarboxylic acid dopants (e.g. D-tartaric acid, succinic acid, maleic acid and fumaric acid). The trans-cis isomerization of butenedioic acid played an important role in the formation of nanostructures from the plane-like to nanofibers, and the PANI doped with maleic acid (MA) had larger diameter, higher crystallinity and conductivity than PANI doped with fumaric acid (FA).

With an average diameter of 148-285 nm and a conductivity of 2.38E-2- 5.88 E-2S/cm, Nanoscaled polyaniline (PANI) were synthesized based on template-free method in the presence of dicarboxylic acids dopants (e.g., D-tartaric acid, Succinic acid, maleic acid and fumaric acid). Furthermore, the trans-cis isomerization of butenedioic acid plays an important role in the formation of nanostructures from plane-like to nanofibers, and PANI-MA has larger diameter, higher crystallinity and conductivity than PANI-FA.

A series of 5′-amido derivatives of 5-(2″-thienyl)-2′,3′,5′-β-trideoxyuridine were prepared. The compounds were tested for their inhibition of cellular DNA polymerase α and α HIV-RT. The succinic fumaric and maleic acid derivatives of 5-(2″-thienyl)-2′,3′,5′-β-trideoxyuridine were investigated. None of the compounds inhibited HIV-RT. The fumaric acid derivative inhibited DNA pol α with IC50 33 μg ml−1. The succinic acid derivative was about half as active with IC50 76 μg ml−1. The 5′-N-acyl derivatives also were structurally compared to the monomethyl ester of the triphosphate using the Sybyl program.

To better understand precursors of dicarboxylic acids in ambient secondary organic aerosol (SOA), we studied C4–C9 dicarboxylic acids present in SOA formed from the oxidation of toluene, naphthalene, α-pinene, and isoprene. C4–C9 dicarboxylic acids present in SOA were analyzed by offline derivatization gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. We revealed that C4 dicarboxylic acids including succinic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, malic acid, DL-tartaric acid, and meso-tartaric acid are produced by the photooxidation of toluene. Since meso-tartaric acid barely occurs in nature, it is a potential aerosol tracer of photochemical reaction products. In SOA particles from toluene, we also detected a compound and its isomer with similar mass spectra to methyltartaric acid standard; the compound and the isomer are tentatively identified as 2,3-dihydroxypentanedioic acid isomers. The ratio of detected C4–C5 dicarboxylic acids to total toluene SOA mass had no significant dependence on the initial VOC/NOx condition. Trace levels of maleic acid and fumaric acid were detected during the photooxidation of naphthalene. Malic acid was produced from the oxidation of α-pinene and isoprene. A trace amount of succinic acid was detected in the SOA produced from the oxidation of isoprene.

Summary1. The presence of citrate in the normal fibrin enhanced the fibrinolytic activity of plasminogen activators, including trypsin. The effect of proteases (on normal or on heated fibrin, containing citrate) was not significantly influenced.2. The effect of plasminogen activators was also increased when excess of plasminogen was present in the normal fibrin plates.3. Fumaric acid and maleic acid belong to the polycarboxylic acids producing an enhancing effect.

Aspergillus indicus grown on a semi-synthetic medium produces a number of metabolites including kojic acid, succinic acid, fumaric acid, β-nitropropionic acid, indazonic acids, fumaryl-~danine, and dihydrocanadensolide. The last compound is shown to have the formula (I) and is biosynthesized in part from "acetate" units; the rest of the molecule may come from pyruvic acid.
