| heterocyclic compounds, 1-ring | A class of organic compounds containing a ring structure made up of more than one kind of atom, usually carbon plus another atom. The ring structure can be aromatic or nonaromatic. (12 Dec 1998) |
| heterocyclic compounds, 2-ring | A class of organic compounds containing two ring structures, one of which is made up of more than one kind of atom, usually carbon plus another atom. The heterocycle may be either aromatic or nonaromatic. (12 Dec 1998) |
| heterocyclic compounds, 3-ring | A class of organic compounds containing three ring structures, one of which is made up of more than one kind of atom, usually carbon plus another atom. The heterocycle may be either aromatic or nonaromatic (12 Dec 1998) |
| heterocyclic compounds, bridged-ring | A class of organic compounds which contain two rings that share a pair of bridgehead carbon atoms. (12 Dec 1998) |
| heterocyclic compounds with 4 or more rings | A class of organic compounds containing four or more ring structures, one of which is made up of more than one kind of atom, usually carbon plus another atom. The heterocycle may be either aromatic or nonaromatic. (12 Dec 1998) |
| hexamethonium compounds | <chemical> Compounds containing the hexamethylenebis(trimethylammonium) cation. Members of this group frequently act as antihypertensive agents and selective ganglionic blocking agents. Pharmacological action: antihypertensive agents, ganglionic blockers. (12 Dec 1998) |
| high energy compounds | Classically, a group of phosphoric esters whose hydrolysis takes place with a standard free energy change of -5 to -15 kcal/mol (or, -20 to -63 kJ/mol) (in contrast to -1 to -4 kcal/mol or, -4 to -17 kJ/mol) for simple phosphoric esters like glucose-6-phosphate or alpha-glycerophosphates), thus being capable of driving energy-consuming reactions in living cells or reconstituted cell-free systems; adenosine 5'-triphosphate, with respect to the beta-and gamma-phosphates, is the best known and is regarded as the immediate energy source for most metabolic syntheses. The general types are acid anhydrides, phosphoric esters of enols, phosphamic acid (R-NH-PO3H2) derivatives, acyl thioesters (e.g., of coenzyme A), sulfonium compound's (R3-S+), and aminoacyl esters of ribosyl moieties. See: high energy phosphates. (05 Mar 2000) |
