General description

Hexafluoroisopropanol (HFP) is generally used to denature the native state of proteins, and it also stabilizes the a-helical conformation in unfolded peptides and proteins like ß-lactoglobulin and melittin.

Application

Suitable for the derivatization of glutamic acid, homovanillic, iso-homovanillic and dihydroxyphenyl acetic acids and Υ-aminobutyric acid.

Other Notes

Reagent for hexafluoroisopropyl ester, N-pentafluoropropionyl, and trifluoroacetyl..

The cholinergic hypothesis has long been a "polar star" in drug discovery for Alzheimer's disease (AD), resulting in many small molecules and biological drug candidates. Most of the drugs marketed for AD are cholinergic. Herein, we report our efforts in

1,1,1,3,3,3-Hexafluoroisopropanol is re-examined as an eluent for size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) of polyesters, nylons, and other polar polymers. It is shown that anomalous SEC behavior reported in previous literature can be eliminated by adding 0.01 M tetraethylammonium nitrate to the eluent.

Small molecule cholinesterases inhibitor (ChEI) provides an effective therapeutic strategy to treat Alzheimer's disease (AD). Currently, the discovery of new ChEI with multi-target effect is still of great importance. Herein, we report the synthesis, structure-activity relationship study and biological evaluation
