SummaryThe anticoagulant activity of 3.3’-(benzylidene)-bis-4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives has been estimated by one step Quick’s method. The derivatives contained the following groups in the para position of benzylidene residue: NCS- (I), CH3-S- (II), CH3-SO-(III), CH3-S02- (IV), C2H5-S- (V), C2H5-SO- (VI), C2H5-S02- (VII). All these compounds were much more active than 3.3’-(benzylidene)-bis-4-hydroxycoumarin itself.Compounds possessing the ethyl chain at the sulphur atom (V, VI, VII) were more active than methyl homologues (II, III, IV). Comparison of the activity of the series of thio-, sulphoxy-, and sulphonyl-derivatives showed that among methyl- and ethyl-derivatives those with the sulphoxy grouping (III, VI) displayed the greatest anticoagulant activity. The action of sulphonyl (IV, VII) and thio-derivatives (II, V) was weaker and shortest. The derivative with the NCS-group (I) possessed a relatively the lowest activity among the investigated compounds. 3.3’-(p-Ethylsulphoxybenzyl-idene)-bis-4-hydroxycoumarin (VI), with distinct biological activity reached about ½ of dicoumarol activity.

We report detailed mechanistic investigations of an iron-based catalyst system, which allows the α-C-H oxidation of a wide variety of amines, including acyclic tertiary aliphatic amines, to afford dealkylated or amide products. In contrast to other catalysts that affect α-C-H oxidations of tertiary amines, the system under investigation employs exclusively peroxy esters as oxidants. More common oxidants (e.g. tBuOOH) previously reported to affect amine oxidations via free radical pathways do not provide amine α-C-H oxidation products in combination with the herein described catalyst system. Motivated by this difference in reactivity to more common free radical systems, the investigations described herein employ initial rate kinetics, kinetic profiling, Eyring studies, kinetic isotope effect studies, Hammett studies, ligand coordination studies, and EPR studies to shed light on the Fe catalyst system. The obtained data suggest that the catalytic mechanism proceeds through C-H abstraction at a coordinated substrate molecule. This rate-determining step occurs either at an Fe(IV) oxo pathway or a 2-electron pathway at a Fe(II) intermediate with bound oxidant. We further show via kinetic profiling and EPR studies that catalyst activation follows a radical pathway, which is initiated by hydrolysis of PhCO3 tBu to tBuOOH in the reaction mixture. Overall, the obtained mechanistic data support a non-classical, Fe catalyzed pathway that requires substrate binding, thus inducing selectivity for α-C-H functionalization.<br>

Progesterone-containing contraceptives do not have a significant impact on metabolic processes and can be prescribed to patients with systemic (diabetes mellitus, obesity) and other diseases. Desogestrel is a part of oral preparations in a dose of 75 mcg. The main mechanism of its contraceptive action is Suppression of ovulation (in 97% of cases). The frequency of pregnancy is 0.17 for 100 women-years. Progesterone-containing contraceptives should not be considered, as preparations of the second choice when deciding on the issue of family planning. According to the recommendations of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention organization of health, desogestrel is an acceptable contraceptive option for women with somatic diseases, defined tumor pathology and thrombotic states in the anamnesis.
