16. J. G. Topliss, J. Med. Chem. 1972, 15, 1006-1011. In this paper, proposals were presented for the stepwise selection for the synthesis of analogues of an active compound. The diagrams are based on a fundamental assumption of the Hansch method that a particular substituent may modify the activity relative to the parent compound by virtue of the resulting changes in hydrophobic, electronic and steric effects. In our study, the use of the Topliss scheme allowed us to choose certain reagents to verify the validity of our methodology and at the same time to start to build a list of molecules with potential biological interest.

Although some substituted benzyl azides are commercially available, most are provided, in: small quantities in solutions of TBME or DCM, hence, they were freshly prepared, in: pure form according to known methods, see:, J. McNulty, K. Keskar, R. Vemula, Chem. Eur. J. 2011, 17, 14727-14730; for a comprehensive review on the chemistry and synthesis of organic azides, see:, S. Bräse, C. Gil, K. Knepper, V.

24. The lost dissipation factor (tan δ) expresses the capacity of a molecule or a material to transform electromagnetic energy into thermal energy. A very high susceptibility to microwaves is characterized by a high value (>0.5) of tan δ. tan δ (acetic acid): δ = 0.174 at 2.45 GHz. For more details, see:, C. Gabriel, S. Gabriel, E. H. Grant, B.
