RESUMO
Newborns are the most vulnerable patients for thrombosis development among all children, with critically ill and premature infants being in the highest risk group. The upward trend in the rate of neonatal thrombosis could be attributed to progress in the treatment of severe neonatal conditions and the increased survival in premature babies. There are physiological differences in the hemostatic system between neonates and adults. Neonates differ in concentrations and rate of synthesis of most coagulation factors, turnover rates, the ability to regulate thrombin and plasmin, and in greater variability compared to adults. Natural inhibitors of coagulation (protein C, protein S, antithrombin, heparin cofactor II) and vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors (factors II, VII, IX, X) are low, but factor VIII and von Willebrand factor are elevated. Newborns have decreased fibrinolytic activity. In the healthy neonate, the balance is maintained but appears more easily converted into thrombosis. Neonatal hemostasis has less buffer capacity, and almost 95% of thrombosis is provoked. Different triggering risk factors are responsible for thrombosis in neonates, but the most important risk factors for thrombosis are central catheters, fluid fluctuations, liver dysfunction, and septic and inflammatory conditions. Low-molecular-weight heparins are the agents of choice for anticoagulation.

An efficient approach to the synthesis of olefin metathesis HG-type catalysts containing an NâRu bond in a six-membered chelate ring was proposed. For the most part, these ruthenium chelates can be prepared easily and in high yields based on the interaction between 2-vinylbenzylamines and Ind II (the common precursor for Ru-complex synthesis). It was demonstrated that the increase of the steric volume of substituents attached to the nitrogen atom and in the α-position of the benzylidene fragment leads to a dramatic decrease in the stability of the target ruthenium complexes. The bulkiest iPr substituent bonded to the nitrogen atom or to the α-position does not allow the closing of the chelate cycle. N,N-Diethyl-1-(2-vinylphenyl)propan-1-amine is a limiting case; its interaction with Ind II makes it possible to isolate the corresponding ruthenium chelate in a low yield (5%). Catalytic activity of the synthesized complexes was tested in RCM reactions and compared with α-unsubstituted catalysts obtained previously. The structural peculiarities of the final ruthenium complexes were thoroughly investigated using XRD and NMR analysis, which allowed making a reliable correlation between the structure of the complexes and their catalytic properties.
RESUMO
This work presents the design and synthesis of camphor, fenchone, and norcamphor N-acylhydrazone derivatives as a new class of inhibitors of the Hantaan virus, which causes haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS). A cytopathic model was developed for testing chemotherapeutics against the Hantaan virus, strain 76-118. In addition, a study of the antiviral activity was carried out using a pseudoviral system. It was found that the hit compound possesses significant activity (IC50 = 7.6 ± 2 µM) along with low toxicity (CC50 > 1000 µM). Using molecular docking procedures, the binding with Hantavirus nucleoprotein was evaluated and the correlation between the structure of the synthesised compounds and the antiviral activity was established.

The ring rearrangement metathesis (RRM) of a trans-cis diastereomer mixture of methyl 3-allyl-3a,6-epoxyisoindole-7-carboxylates derived from cheap, accessible and renewable furan-based precursors in the presence of a new class of Hoveyda-Grubbs-type catalysts, comprising an NâRu coordinate bond in a six-membered ring, results in the difficult-to-obtain natural product-like cyclopenta[b]furo[2,3-c]pyrroles. In this process, only one diastereomer with a trans-arrangement of the 3-allyl fragment relative to the 3a,6-epoxy bridge enters into the rearrangement, while the cis-isomers polymerize almost completely under the same conditions. The tested catalysts are active in the temperature range from 60 to 120 °C at a concentration of 0.5 mol % and provide better yields of the target tricycles compared to the most popular commercially available second-generation Hoveyda-Grubbs catalyst. The diastereoselectivity of the intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction furan (IMDAF) reaction between starting 1-(furan-2-yl)but-3-en-1-amines and maleic anhydride, leading to 3a,6-epoxyisoindole-7-carboxylates, was studied as well.

The title compound, [RuCl2(C33H43N3O)], is an example of a new generation of N,N-dialkyl ruthenium catalysts with an N-Ru coordination bond as part of a six-membered chelate ring. The Ru atom has an Addison τ parameter of 0.244, which indicates a geometry inter-mediate between square-based pyramidal and trigonal-bipyramidal. The complex shows the usual trans arrangement of the two chlorides, with Ru-Cl bond lengths of 2.3515â (8) and 2.379â (7)â Å, and a Cl-Ru-Cl angle of 158.02â (3)°. One of the chlorine atoms and the atoms of the 2-meth-oxy-N-methyl-N-[(2-methyl-phen-yl)meth-yl]ethane-1-amine group of the title complex display disorder over two positions in a 0.889â (2): 0.111â (2) ratio.
RESUMO
Neonatal thromboembolism in pediatric patients is a rare but life-threatening condition mainly caused by combinations of at least 2 prothrombotic triggering risk factors such as the central venous lines, septic condition, and prematurity. Other risk factors include asphyxia, dehydration, liver dysfunction, inflammation, and maternal condition. Neonatal hemostatic system is different from one of the older children and adults. Coagulation proteins do not cross the placenta but are synthesized in the fetus from an early stage. In the term neonate, concentrations of several procoagulant proteins, particularly the vitamin K dependent and contact factors are reduced when compared with adults. Conversely, levels of antithrombin, heparin cofactor II and protein C and S are low at birth and fibrinolysis system is characterized by the decreased level of plasminogen and alpha-1-antiplasmin, increased tissue plasminogen activator. These features all tend to be gestational dependent and are more present in the preterm infant. Primarily in this context neonates appear to be at a higher risk of thrombosis than older children. Thrombotic complications reach their peak in the group of children born at 22-27 weeks. The role of inherited thrombophilic risk factors in neonatal VTE development is poorly defined. The presence of inherited and acquired thrombophilia in mother and newborn is also responsible for the development of thrombosis in neonates and should be considered. Thrombophilia in the mother can lead to increased coagulation potential and prethrombotic conditions during pregnancy, causing thrombotic vasculopathy at the placental level. The benefit of identifying thrombophilia in the sick preterm newborns who are in the group of risk for development of thrombotic complications may facilitate the thromboprophylaxis. Further research regarding assessment of risk factors, diagnostics and treatment strategy is required.
