[Synthesis of acylates of niridazole and its analogs as schistosomicides].

In order to decrease the toxicity and enhance the curative effect of niridazole against Schistosomiasis japonica, a series of acylates of niridazole has been prepared through acylation of niridazole, 2-substituted acetamido-5-nitrothiazoles and 1-(5-nitro-2-thiazolyl)-4-acylpiperazine were also prepared. The products has been tested against Schistosomiasis japonica in mice. Preliminary test results showed that the majority of aliphatic acylates of niridazole exhibited marked schistosomicidal effect against adult worms as well as larva (compounds 2, 4-8, 12, 13, 15, 18, 19), a few of aromatic and heterocyclic acylates (compounds 14, 22) and the analogs of niridazole (compounds 26, 39, 49) showed weak activity.

The thickness of shock layers in liquid chromatography.

At high concentrations, one boundary (the front if the isotherm is convex upward) of the elution band of a single component becomes very steep. Similarly, in frontal analysis, the same boundary is self-sharpening. These steep boundaries are called shock layers. They result from the steady-state equilibrium between a nonlinear thermodynamics of phase equilibrium on the one hand, which tends to create a concentration discontinuity, and axial dispersion and a finite rate of mass transfer on the other hand, which tend to relax the concentration gradient. We show that the width of experimental breakthrough curves recorded in frontal analysis agrees well with the prediction of the shock layer theory of Rhee and Amundson in the high concentration range. It is a function of the coefficients of the column HETP equation and the height of the concentration step and is independent of the column length, after the steady state is achieved. In the low concentration range, a discrepancy is observed when the column length is short and the migration distance is insufficient to achieve constant pattern behavior.
