Near or baseline Rp-p was achieved for three pairs of sodiated molecules of disaccharide isomers, that is, cellobiose and sucrose (Rp-p?=?0.76), maltose and sucrose (Rp-p?=?1.04), and maltose and lactose (Rp-p?=?0.74). Ion mobility mass spectrometry using CO2 as the drift gas offers therefore an attractive alternative for fast and efficient separation of isomeric disaccharides.}, language = {en} } @article{PazPeterSchmidtetal.2012, author = {Paz, Cristian and Peter, Martin G. and Schmidt, Bernd and Becerra, Jose and Gutierrez, Margarita and Astudillo, Luis and Silva, Mario}, title = {Synthesis and AChE inhibiting activity of 2, 4 substituted 6-Phenyl Pyrimidines}, series = {Journal of the Chilean Chemical Society}, volume = {57}, journal = {Journal of the Chilean Chemical Society}, number = {3}, publisher = {Sociedad Chilena De Quimica}, address = {Concepcion}, issn = {0717-9324}, pages = {1292 -- 1294}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Novel substituted pyrimidines were synthesized from methyl 2,4-dioxo-4-phenyl-butanoate (I-A) and urea, followed by Mitsunobu coupling of I-A with benzyl or allyl alcohol to give the corresponding 2-hydroxypyrimidine ethers in good yields. Saponification of I-A, followed by reaction with benzyl or allyl amines in the presence of TBTU yielded 2-hydroxy-6-phenyl-pyrimidine 4-carboxamides. AChE and BuChE assays revealed 2-hydroxy-6-phenyl-pyrimidine-4-carboxyallyamide as the most active compound, IC50=90 mu M, with no inhibition of BuChE.}, language = {en} }
