Usage

General Description

1-Hexyl-pyrrolidin-2-one, also known as N-Hexyl-2-pyrrolidone, is a chemical compound most commonly used as an organic solvent. This light yellow liquid with no color is known for its high boiling point and low evaporation rate. It is prized for its excellent solvent properties, high flash point, and its excellent stability under normal and acidic conditions. Due to these properties, it is often used in fields like electronics, industrial cleaning, and coatings. Despite its useful properties, it is essential to handle this chemical with care as it could be potentially harmful or irritant when mishandled, especially to the eyes and skin.

Organocatalytic diimide reduction of enamides in water

Bridged flavinium organocatalysts have displayed efficacy in the diimide mediated reduction of enamides in aqueous conditions. This represents the first diimide reduction of an electron rich alkene and offers a clean alternative to the use of alkylating agents for N-alkylation.

Composition comprising an oxygenated cholesterol and use thereof for topical treatment of diseases

The invention is directed to a pharmaceutical composition comprising an oxygenated cholesterol and a penetration-enhancing agent which is useful for topical application to the skin of a patient suffering from a proliferative skin disease characterized by geminative cells having a rapid rate of replication, e.g. psoriasis. The composition comprises an effective amount for the inhibition of germinative cell mitosis of an oxygenated cholesterol, e.g. 26-hydroxycholesterol, or a pharmaceutically effective derivative thereof e.g. an ester or ether. The invention is further directed to a method of treating a patient suffering from said skin disease comprising applying to the effected skin said therapeutic composition. The invention is also directed to the topical application of these compositions to the skin to decrease inflammation.

Method of improved pest control

The disclosure describes a method for improved plant pest control comprising contacting a plant or plant pest with a composition comprising an effective amount of a plant pesticide and an effective delivery enhancing amount of compound having the structural formula STR1 wherein R' is H or a lower alkyl group having 1-4 carbon atoms, m is 3-7, n is 0-17 and R is --CH3, STR2 where R" is H or halogen, with the proviso that if m is 3 and R is CH3, then n is 5-17. Typical plant pesticides include insecticides, fungicides, herbicides, rodenticides, nematicides molluscicides and acaricides. The preferred penetration enhancing compound is 1-n-dodecylaza cycloheptan-2-one.
