PMID: 25032753
Org Biomol Chem. 2014 Sep 07;12(33):6359-62. doi: 10.1039/c4ob01203h.

An interesting and convenient procedure for the oxidative transformation of acetophenones and carbinols to primary benzamides has been developed. By using tetra-n-butylammonium iodide (TBAI) as the catalyst and tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as the oxidant, the desired benzamides were isolated...

Dose and Frequency of Administration of Interferon-beta Affect its Efficacy in Multiple Sclerosis.

Clinical drug investigation

Sharief MK.
PMID: 17535068
Clin Drug Investig. 2003;23(9):551-9. doi: 10.2165/00044011-200323090-00001.

Data reviewed in this article demonstrate that both interferon-beta-1a (IFNbeta-1a) and interferon-beta-1b (IFNbeta-1b) show a dose-response relationship in multiple sclerosis at current clinical doses. Moreover, the efficacy of these therapies is probably dependent on their frequent administration to maintain...
