Alkylated terpyridine ligands are an increasingly important component of catalysis and dyes but are costly because their synthesis is challenging and often low-yielding. We report an improved method for the Pd/C-catalyzed dehydrogenative coupling of 4-picoline to form the bi- and terpyridine. The addition of MnO2 improves the yield of the reaction, making the reaction useful on a large scale (u...

Protonation of the reactive intermediate produced in the  reaction between trimethyl phosphite and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate or diethyl acetylenedicarboxylate by resorcinol, 5-methylresorcinol, 2,5-dihydroxyacetophenone, 4-chloro-2-methylphenol, 4-chloro-3,5-dimethy-lphenol, 4-hydroxypyridine, 2-hydroxypyridine, 3-hydroxypyridine, or 8-hydroxyquinoline leads to vinylphosphonium salts,...

In the mol-ecule of the title compund [systematic name: N-butyl-N-ethyl-2,5,6-trimethyl-7-(2,4,6-trimethyl-phen-yl)-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-amine], C(24)H(34)N(4), the pyrrolopy-rimidine ring system is nearly planar, its five- and six-membered rings forming a dihedral angle of 5.3 (2)°. The benzene ring is nearly orthogonal to the central ring system. The N atom carrying the ethyl and n-bu...

Vilsmeier-Haack reaction of 2,3,3-trimethyl-3H-benzo[g]indole, then aqueous basic work-up, leads to benzo[g]indol-2-ylidene- malondialdehydes. These react with various arylhydrazines and quinolin-2-ylhydrazine to form 3,3-dimethyl-2-(1-aryl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)- 3H-benzo[g]indoles in good yields.

The title compound, C17H21NO2, was synthesized by the reaction of (1R)-(+)-3-benzyl-camphor and hydroxyl-amine. The oxazole ring makes a dihedral angle of 23.42 (16)° with the phenyl ring. The six-membered ring of the norboryl group adopts a boat conformation, whereas each of the five-membered rings of the norboryl group displays a flattened envelope conformation, with the C atom carrying the m...

The cation of the title compound, [Cu(L)], is formed by Michael condensation of (4,6,6-trimethyl-3,7-diazanon-3-ene1,9-diamine)copper(II) with methanal and nitropropane. This cation forms a tetracyanonickelate(II) compound, the unit cell of which contains two centrosymmetric tetracyanonickelate(II)-bridged trinuclear cations, namely diaqua1,3 O-di-cyano-1:2 C:N;1:3 C:N-dicyano-1 C-bis(13-ethyl-...

background: 2, 4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2, 4-d) is well known as inexpensive herbicides but it can give rise to undesirable pollution. the objective of this investigation was to describe a photo-chemical system for degradation of 2, 4-d. methods: a designed photolytic cell system was used in this study with a 150w or 400w uv lamp. a set of experiments was carried out at ph 1.5, 2.5, 3.5 a...
