A nonenzymatic method for the selective detection and quantification of serum uric acid (UA) using 2-thiouracil (2-TU) tailored Au nanoparticles is developed. The H-bonding interaction of UA with functionalized Au nanoparticles brings instantaneous visible color change and paves the way

In recent years, the frequent detection of the banned substance thiouracil (TU) in livestock urine has been related to its endogenous formation following consumption of glucosinolate-rich Brassicaceae crops. Besides, TU residues have been recovered in these crops upon plant-derived myrosinase

4-Pyrimidinone ribofuranoside (H(2)o(4)U) and 4-pyrimidinone 2'-deoxyribofuranoside (dH(2)o(4)U) were synthesized by the oxidative desulfurization of parent 2-thiouracil nucleosides with m-chloroperbenzoic acid. The crystal structures of H(2)o(4)U and dH(2)o(4)U and their conformations in solution were determined and compared with corresponding 2-thiouracil and

The solvatochromic responses of uric acid (Ua), 6-amino-2-thiouracil (ATU) and a series of their complexes dissolved in ten solvents of different polarity have been measured. The solvent-dependent UV/Vis spectroscopic absorption maxima, λ(max), are assigned to the corresponding electronic transitions and
