Kinetic benzylidenation. Part II. Rearrangement of the kinetic products from benzylidenation of aldose diethyl dithioacetals

Abstract: Terminal five-membered O-benzylidene derivatives of aldose diethyl dithioacetals can be rearranged at room temperature in N,N-dimethylformamide, often in high yields. Derivatives with the arabino c...

Modulation of animal cellular responses with compositions containing 8-substituted guanine derivatives and interferons

Abstract: Compositions and methods for their use in modulating animal cellular responses are disclosed. The compositions include as an active agent an effective amount of an 8-substitued guanine derivative bonded 9-1' to an aldose having 5 or 6 carbon atoms in the aldose chain. The composition includes a diluent amount of a physiologically tolerable carrier. The guanine derivative is free of electrically charged functioinality, while the 8-substituent has an electron withdrawing inductive effect greater than that of hydrogen and contains fewer than about 15 atoms. Animal cellular responses are modulated by contacting the cells with a composition of this invention.

2-De-oxy-α-d-arabino-hexopyran-ose.

Abstract: The title compound, C6H12O5, is the α-pyran­ose form of the reducing aldose 2-de­oxy-d-arabino-hexose The six-membered pyran­ose ring adopts a 4C1 conformation, with the anomeric hy­droxy group in axial and the other substituents in equatorial positions In the crystal, each of the four hy­droxy groups acts as an inter­molecular hydrogen-bond donor function, resulting in a three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network
