Inosine Pranobex
Inosine pranobex ( BAN; also known as inosine acedoben dimepranol (INN), methisoprinol, inosiplex or Isoprinosine) is an antiviral drug that is a combination of inosine and dimepranol acedoben (a salt of acetamidobenzoic acid and dimethylaminoisopropanol) in a ratio of 1 to 3. It is used primarily in European countries, especially as a treatment for acute viral infections, such as the common cold. Mechanism of action Immunomodulatory effects Inosine pranobex acts as an immunostimulant, an analog of thymus hormones. It is indicated for an entire spectrum of patients with clinical manifestations of immune deficiency. It modulates the immune system by immunostimulation or immunooptimisation of defensive inflammation at the cellular level, e.g. by interfering with energy metabolism, cell signalling and proliferation. One of the main immunostimulatory effects of inosine pranobex lies in T-cell modulation. Its administration has been shown both in vivo and in vitro to induce ...

Sigma-Aldrich
Sigma-Aldrich (formally MilliporeSigma) is an American chemical, life science, and biotechnology company owned by the multinational chemical conglomerate Merck Group. Sigma-Aldrich was created in 1975 by the merger of Sigma Chemical Company and Aldrich Chemical Company. It grew through various acquisitions until it had over 9,600 employees and was listed on the Fortune 1000. The company has two United States headquarters, in St. Louis and Burlington, MA and has operations in approximately 40 countries. In 2015, the multinational chemical conglomerate Merck Group acquired Sigma-Aldrich for $17 billion. The company is currently a part of Merck's life science business and in combination with Merck's earlier acquired Millipore Corporation, Millipore, operates as MilliporeSigma. It is headquartered in Burlington, Massachusetts, United States. History Sigma Chemical Company of St. Louis and Aldrich Chemical Company of Milwaukee were both American specialty chemical companies when they ...

Amino Alcohol
In organic chemistry, alkanolamines (amino alcohols) are organic compounds that contain both hydroxyl () and amino (, , and ) functional groups on an alkane backbone. Alkanolamine's bifunctionality and physicochemical characteristics lead to its use in many applications, such as textiles, cosmetics, agricultural chemical intermediates, drugs, and metal working fluids. Many aminoalcohols derivatives also have chemotherapeutic properties. Methanolamine.svg, Methanolamine, from the reaction of ammonia with formaldehyde Ethanolamine.svg, Ethanolamine 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol.svg, 2-Amino-2-methyl-1-propanol is a precursor to oxazolines valinol.svg, Valinol is derived from the amino acid valine Sphingosine structure.svg, Sphingosine is a component of some cell membranes. Alkanolamines usually have high-solubility in water due to the hydrogen bonding ability of both the hydroxyl group and the amino group. Alkanoamines have also shown a broad toxicity for a variety of organism ...

Organic Synthesis
Organic synthesis is a branch of chemical synthesis concerned with the construction of organic compounds. Organic compounds are molecules consisting of combinations of covalently-linked hydrogen, carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen atoms. Within the general subject of organic synthesis, there are many different types of synthetic routes that can be completed including total synthesis, Enantioselective synthesis, stereoselective synthesis, automated synthesis, and many more. Additionally, in understanding organic synthesis it is necessary to be familiar with the methodology, techniques, and applications of the subject. Total synthesis A total synthesis refers to the complete chemical synthesis of molecules from simple, Precursor (chemistry), natural precursors. Total synthesis is accomplished either via a linear or convergent approach. In a Linear synthesis, ''linear'' synthesis—often adequate for simple structures—several steps are performed sequentially until the molecule is com ...

Secondary Alcohols
In chemistry, an alcohol (), is a type of organic compound that carries at least one hydroxyl () functional group bound to a saturated carbon atom. Alcohols range from the simple, like methanol and ethanol, to complex, like sugar alcohols and cholesterol. The presence of an OH group strongly modifies the properties of hydrocarbons, conferring hydrophilic (water-loving) properties. The OH group provides a site at which many reactions can occur. History The flammable nature of the exhalations of wine was already known to ancient natural philosophers such as Aristotle (384–322 BCE), Theophrastus (–287 BCE), and Pliny the Elder (23/24–79 CE). However, this did not immediately lead to the isolation of alcohol, even despite the development of more advanced distillation techniques in second- and third-century Roman Egypt. An important recognition, first found in one of the writings attributed to Jābir ibn Ḥayyān (ninth century CE), was that by adding salt to boiling win ...
