TL;DR: Oral administration of chalcone, 4, and both p-methoxy-substituted chalcones, 6 and 14, increased hepatic QR activity with concomitant decrease in CYP1A1 activity, a member of the most important group of phase I enzymes cytochrome P450.

TL;DR: In this article, the binuclear complex [RuCl(pz-RuCl2(CO)(dppb)(N-N)]PF6 was synthesized by exhaustive electrolysis of these carbonyl compounds or from the precursors.

TL;DR: Both copper(II) complexes were able to catalyze the dismutation of superoxide anion (O(2)(-) at micromolar concentrations and behaved as useful SOD-mimetic compounds.

TL;DR: In this paper, structural and conformational properties of S-benzyl ferrocenecarbothioate (I) and S-(2-methoxyphenyl) ferrocenecarbothion (II) are analyzed using data obtained from X-ray diffraction, vibrational data and theoretical calculations.

TL;DR: In this article, the synthesis, X-ray crystal and molecular structure, NMR, IR and Raman spectra and the thermal behavior of a novel carbonate of AZT [(AZT-O)2C O], prepared by the reaction of zidovudine with carbonyldiimidazole.

TL;DR: In this paper, structural and conformational properties of 1H-Isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione, 2-[methoxycarbonyl)thio] (S -phthalimido O -methyl thiocarbonate) are analyzed using a combined approach including X-ray diffraction, vibrational spectra and theoretical calculation methods.

TL;DR: In this article, the structural, spectroscopic and theoretical study of cyclocreatine (1-carboxymethyl-2-iminoimidazolidine, CyCre) has been performed prompted by the biological relevance of the molecule and its potential role as a ligand in biometalic compounds.
