The rate constants for the nucleophilic addition reactions of thiourea to ${\beta}$-nitrostyrene derivatives(p-H, p-Cl, p-CH$_3$, p-OCH$_3$, p-NO$_2$) were determined by UV spectrophotometer and rate equations which can be applied over a wide pH ranges were obtained. On the basis of substituent effect, general base catalysis and rate equations, a reaction mechanism was proposed and revealed quantitively. Above pH 9.00, sulfide anion adds to the double bond(Michael type addition) and between pH 7.00 and 9.00, the neutral molecules and its anions add to the double bond competitively. Below pH 7.00, the addition reaction to double bond is initiated by the addition of neutral thiourea molecule.

A cyclone type electrolytic method was used to recover silver from thiourea-hydrochloric acid mixed solutions. The electrowinning behavior of silver was investigated in different systems, such as the flow rate, current density, silver concentration, thiourea concentration and hydrochloric acid concentration. As the increase of the flow rate, current density and hydrochloric acid concentration, the recovery rate of silver was increased. Whereas, as the increase of silver concentration, the recovery rate of silver was decreased. The thiourea concentration did not affect the Ag recovery and current efficiency. Above 99% of Ag was recovered at the flow rate of 12 L/min., current density of $0.75A/dm^2$, silver concentration of 1.0 g/L, 0.5 M thiourea and 0.1 M hydrochloric acid. In most experimental conditions, silver was recovered as a powder form.

Background : The surfactant protein A(SP-A) is important in the regulation of surfactant secretion, synthesis and recycling. Since the acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS) is usually viewed as the functional and morphological expression of a similar underlying lung injury casued by a variety of insults and since abnormalities in surfactant function have been described in ARDS, the authors investigated the different effects of endotoxin and thiourea on the accumulation of mRNA encoding SP-A. Methods : Sprague-Dawley rats were given 5 mg/kg intraperitoneal endotoxin from Salmonella enteritidis and 3.5 mg/kg intraperitoneal thiourea and sacrified at different time periods. Results : 1) SP-A mRNA was significantly increased 67.0% in 6 hours and 73.4% in 24 hours after 5 mg/kg endotoxin treatment respectively(P<0.005, P<0.005). 2) SP-A mRNA significantly decreased 32.9% in 24 hours after 3.5 mg/kg thiourea treatment(P<0.05). Conclusions : These results indicate that the differential regulation of surfactant protein A in vivo is evident and suggest that surfactant protein A might be differentially regulated during different kind of insults of lung injury at different time periods without altering lung wet to dry ratios.

The electrochemical spectral sensitization of a $SnO_2$ electrode with eosin B, a Xanthene dye, has been studied in acetonitrile. Measurements of the photocurrent have been carried out in the presence of supersensitizers such as thiourea, 1-allyl-2-thiourea, NaSCN, and NaI. The magnitude of the supersensitized photocurrent was greater than that of the sensitized photocurrent for all of the supersensitizers studied. However, the long time span of irradiation causes a significant decrease of the supersensitized photocurrent as well as the absorbance. These results, together with infrared spectra and fluorescence spectra, are taken into account to elucidate the mechanism of photoreaction between eosin B and supersensitizers in acetonitrile.

The 20 thiourea derivatives had been investigated for their cytotoxic activity using MTT assay. Cytotoxic activity was strongly influenced by the substituted alkyl chain length. but not by configuration of Cl and C2. The optimal alkyl chain length for cytotoxicity was C12. The 9 thiourea derivatives showed stronger activity than reference compound. B13. some of them gave 2-3 times stronger activity than B13. (omitted)

The effect of copper sulfate/thiourea on the diffusion and the dye exhaustion of two dyes, C. I. Acid Orange 7 and C. I. Food Yellow 3 in nylon 6 fiber has been studied. The results obtained from the experimetal are as follows : 1) Copper sulfate reacted with thiourea at constant temperature and then generated the colorless trasparent coordination compound, and then combinated end group of carboxyl of nylon 6 fiber. 2) The coordination compound [$Cu_{2}$($TU_{6}$)] ($(SO_{4})_2$) is conducted at pH 5-6 in solution intensity and repulsed the sulfonic acid group of dyes, and therefore the diffusion of dyes is restraint. 3) Dye uptake and diffusion coefficient were decreased in the order of untreated > copper sulfate/thiourea-treated > tannin-treated.

Thiourea and vinyl sulfoxide derivatives were designed based on the structures of sulforaphane and gallic acid, prepared and tested for HO-1 inducing activity as a measure of Nrf2 activation, and inhibitory effect on NO production as a measure of anti-inflammatory activity. Both series of compounds showed moderate activity on HO-1 induction, and no inhibitory effect on NO production. Interestingly the thiourea compound 6d showed better HO-1 induction (71% SFN) than the corresponding isothiocyanate compound 6a (55% SFN). Overall, it seemed that more efficient electrophile is needed to get more effective Nrf2 activator.

The crystal and molecular structure of thiourea dioxide, (NH2)2CSO2, was determined by x-ray single crystal diffraction techniques. Lattice constants are a=10.669(2), b=10.119(2), and c=3.9151(5) Å with the space group Pnma and Z=4. The thiourea portion of the molecule has a planar conformation. When the two oxygen atoms are included, the sulfur atom is at the apex of a trigonal pyramid formed with the two oxygen atoms and the carbon atom as the base. The crystal structure is stabilized by strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds. Ab initio calculations were performed to investigate the bonding features and reactivity of thiourea dioxide. The calculated bond order of S-C is only 0.481. The hydrogen bond energy was computed to be 22.3 kcal/mol for dimer. MEP analysis reveals that the sites on nucleophilic reactions are S and C atoms.
