Quantum yields for the photoinduced release of seven different commonly used leaving groups (LGs) from the o-nitroveratryl protecting group were measured. It was found that these quantum yields depend strongly on the nature of the LGs. We show that the quantum efficiency with which the LGs are released correlates with the stabilization that these LGs provide to o-nitrobenzyl-type radicals becau...

This paper deals with the Legendre wavelet (LW) collocation method for the numerical solution of the radial Schrodinger equation for hydrogen atom. Energy eigenvalues for the hydrogen bound system is derived -13.6 eV. Numerical results of the ground state modes of wave function for the hydrogen R(r) or the electron probability density function, has been presented. The numerical results ha...

We report the synthesis of a series of aryl- or alkyl-substituted 2-mercaptobenzothiazoles by direct thiolation of benzothiazoles with aryl or alkyl thiols via copper-mediated aerobic C-H bond activation in the presence of stoichiometric CuI, 2,2'-bipyridine and Na(2)CO(3). We also show that the approach can be extended to thiazole, benzimidazole, and indole substrates. In addition, we present ...

Before examining what a molecular orbital is, it is good to refresh our memories with respect to the types of bonding that can occur between atoms when molecules are formed. Basically there are two prevalent types of bonding that occur in organic chemistry. (There are several ways that bonding can occur but most of these ways can be classified into two very broad categories.) The first category...

Antioxidants are made for the struggle and reconstruction of the damaged cells, because of their ability in destroying the free radicals. On account of their importance, a theoretical procedure was applied for the study of the molecular structure and radical scavenging activity of six hydroxyphenols which have been introduced as antioxidant compounds. All geometry structures were optimized by M...

The title Schiff base, C14H11NO3, crystallizes as a zwitterion (i.e. proton transfer from the carb-oxy-lic acid group to the imine N atom). The dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 19.59 (6)° and an intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond closes an S(6) ring. In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairs of O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds generate R 2 (4)(24) loops. The dimers are linked by C-H⋯O i...
