A series of alkanolamides have been tested for anticonvulsant activity in the maximal electroshock seizure (MES) and subcutaneous pentylenetetrazole seizure treshold (ScMet) assays and for neurotoxicity (TOX) in rodents. Most interesting were the anticonvulsant results of 2N-methylaminoethanol derivative II, which

The total and semi syntheses of (2R, 3R)-epigallocatechin-3-O-(4-hydroxybenzoate), a novel catechin from Cistus salvifolius, was accomplished. The proteasome inhibition and cytotoxic activities of the synthetic compound and its acetyl derivative were studied and compared with (2R, 3R)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), the active
