As a probe of the 3-methylisoxazole portion of our broad-spectrum antipicornaviral series, a panel of 2-acetylfuran analogues was prepared as replacements for the 3-methylisoxazole ring. Comparison of the two series showed remarkable similarity in potency, spectrum of activity, logP, and

Sugar type is a major factor regulating the reaction rates and pathways in Maillard reaction. Ribose and glucose were used to compare their reactivities and pathways of 2-acetylfuran formation. A stable isotope labeling method was used to study their reactivity.

The concentrations of 2,5-hexanedione (2,5-HD), an n-hexane metabolite, and 2-acetylfuran (2-AF) were measured in urine samples from 123 workers who had predominantly been exposed to n-hexane vapor and 53 workers who had experienced no exposure to solvents. The time-weighted average

A 9-step synthetic route to the complex carbohydrate methyl α-trioxacarcinoside B from 2-acetylfuran is described. Anomerically activated forms, including 1-phenylthio, 1-O-(4'-pentenyl), 1-fluoro, and 1-O-acetyl derivatives are also prepared.

Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes are synthesized with thiosemicarbazone (L1) and semicarbazone (L2) derived from 2-acetyl furan. These complexes are characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility measurements, mass, IR, electronic and EPR spectral studies. The molar conductance measurements
