Resino ester 2 reacts with various primary amines to give secondary amines 3, which are converted to the resino ureas (thioureas) 4 by treatment with isocyanates (isothiocyanates). Preparation of the hydro-uracils and thiouracils 5 is achieved by acidic cyclization-cleavage from the resin. The synthesis is designed to be amenable for structure based library approach to photosystem II D1 protein inhibitors.展开更多

It was found that no redox peak was observed in the cyclic voltammogram (CV) of the complex at the bare gold electrode, but at thiouracil-modified gold electrode, a pair of redox peaks were observed showing that thiouracil can promote the proton-coupled electron transfer reaction of the complex.展开更多
