The Bingel reaction in fullerene chemistry
Bingel fullerene The Bingel reaction in fullerene chemistry The Bingel reaction in fullerene chemistry is a fullerene cyclopropanation reaction to a methanofullerene first discovered by C. Bingel in 1993 with the bromo derivative of diethyl malonate in the presence of a base such as sodium hydride or DBU.[1] The preferred double bonds for this reaction on the fullerene surface are the shorter bonds at the junctions of two hexagons (6-6 bonds) and the driving… Continue reading The Bingel reaction in fullerene chemistry

Immunosuppressant Drug Rapamycin Helps Preserving Female Fertility
Sirolimus (INN/USAN), also known as rapamycin, is an immunosuppressant drug used to prevent rejection in organ transplantation; it is especially useful in kidneytransplants. It prevents activation of T cells and B cells by inhibiting their response tointerleukin-2 (IL-2). A macrolide, sirolimus was discovered by Brazilian researchers as a product of the bacterium Streptomyces hygroscopicus in a soil sample from Easter Island[1] — an island also known as Rapa Nui.[2] It was approved by the… Continue reading Immunosuppressant Drug Rapamycin Helps Preserving Female Fertility

Chinese Plant Compound , Triptolide Wipes out Cancer in 40 Days, Say new Research.
Triptolide is a diterpenoid epoxide found in the Thunder God Vine, Tripterygium wilfordii. It has in vitro and in vivo activities against mouse models of polycystic kidney disease[1] and pancreatic cancer, but its physical properties limit its therapeutic potential.[2] Consequently, a synthetic prodrug, minnelide, is being studied clinically instead.[2] A little-known plant with a truly… Continue reading Chinese Plant Compound , Triptolide Wipes out Cancer in 40 Days, Say new Research.
