We studied the mechanism of action of 3,5-dibromo-4-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (JG-03-14) and found that it is a potent microtubule depolymerizer. JG-03-14 caused a dose-dependent loss of cellular microtubules, formation of aberrant mitotic spindles, accumulation of cells in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle, and Bcl-2 phosphorylation. These events culminated in the initiation of apoptosis, as evidenced by the caspase 3-dependent cleavage of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). JG-03-14 has antiproliferative activity against a wide range of cancer cell lines, with an average IC50 value of 62 nM, and it is a poor substrate for transport …
Method For Direct Preparation For 1,2,4-Triazole From Hydrazine And Formamide, Harris E. Petree, Joseph R. Pociask, John T. Gupton

Process for the preparation of 1,2,4-triazole comprises contacting hydrazine or its aqueous solutions with at least about 2.5 moles of formamide at a temperature of 140° to 210° C. and then recovering the resultant 1,2,4- triazole in yields of 92-98% with 94-98% purity. The formamide is maintained in an excess over about the 2.5 molar amount consumed in the reaction with the hydrazine. Recovery steps for isolating the 1,2,4-triazole are disclosed.
A Process For The Production Of 2-Alkyl Or 2-Cycloalkyl-4-Methyl-6-Hydroxypyrimidines, Joseph T. Blackwell Iii, John T. Gupton, Teruko U. Miyazaki, James B. Nabors, Joseph R. Pociask
A Process For The Production Of 2-Alkyl Or 2-Cycloalkyl-4-Methyl-6-Hydroxypyrimidines, Joseph T. Blackwell Iii, John T. Gupton, Teruko U. Miyazaki, James B. Nabors, Joseph R. Pociask

Production of 2-alkyl- or cycloalkyl-4-methyl-6- hydroxypyrimidines by first neutralizing an alkyl imidate ester hydrochloride with a base in the presence of a water-immiscible solvent for the alkyl imidate ester to be freed thereby; condensing the alkyl imidate ester with diketene to form an oxazinone intermediate, which is then reacted in organic solution with gaseous ammonia and recovering the desired substituted 6-hydroxypyrimidine.
