Abstract

Furan-2,5-diylbis(phenylmethanol) is a key intermediate to access sub(oxa)porphyrins. Previously, this key intermediate was accessible from fossil-derived furan using highly dangerous lithium reagents. Presently, we have produced this key intermediate from cashew apple bagasse (CAB), via the formation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). CAB is non-food biomass containing cellulose and hemicellulose. From the CAB, we have obtained the HMF in the yield of 310 mg/g of CAB. The Response Surface Methodology (RSM) optimized condition for efficient conversion of CAB to HMF is (i) temperature at 180 °C, (ii) 1:1 mol ratio of catalysts (ZnSO4/NaHSO4), and (iii) reaction duration of 3 h. CAB-derived HMF is treated with an oxidizing agent pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) to obtain 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF). DFF is converted into furan-2,5-diylbis(phenylmethanol) in a reaction with phenylmagnesium bromide. Based on the TD-DFT analysis of sub(oxa)porphyrins, it is concluded that the absorption behavior of sub(oxa)porphyrins can be tuned by introducing electron-withdrawing groups into the phenyl ring of the sub(oxa)porphyrins.

Abstract

Purpose: Late stage at presentation and poor adherence to treatment remain major contributors to poor survival in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Patient navigation (PN) programs in the United States have led to improvement in diagnostic or treatment timeliness, particularly for women in lower socioeconomic classes or minority groups. To date, studies of PN in Asia have been limited. We aimed to assess the feasibility of PN in a state-run hospital in an LMIC and to report the impact on diagnostic and treatment timeliness for patients in its first year of implementation. Methods: We established PN in a dedicated breast clinic of a Malaysian state-run hospital. We compared diagnostic and treatment timeliness between navigated patients (n = 135) and patients diagnosed in the prior year (n = 148), and described factors associated with timeliness. Results: Women with PN received timely mammography compared with patients in the prior year (96.4% v 74.4%; P <.001), biopsy (92.5% v 76.1%; P =.003), and communication of news (80.0% v 58.5%; P <.001). PN reduced treatment default rates (4.4% v 11.5%; P =.048). Among navigated patients, late stage at presentation was independently associated with having emotional and language barriers (P =.01). Finally, the main reason reported for delay, default, or refusal of treatment was the preference for alternative therapy. Conclusion: PN is feasible for addressing barriers to cancer care when integrated with a state-run breast clinic of an LMIC. Its implementation resulted in improved diagnostic timeliness and reduced treatment default. Wider adoption of PN could be a key element of cancer control in LMICs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
