BACKGROUND Piperazine is a secondary heterocyclic amine that may give rise to occupational asthma of uncertain mechanism. METHODS We report on a 42-year-old woman, a process operator in a chemical factory, who developed work-related symptoms of rhinitis and asthma upon exposure to piperazine citrate. She remained symptom free during holidays and days off work. RESULTS Skin prick test with p...

In the title salt, C(4)H(12)N(2) (2+)·2C(2)H(3)O(2) (-), the piperazine-1,4-diium cation has 2/m symmetry with the NH(2) unit located on a mirror plane and the acetate anion has m symmetry with all non-H atoms and one H atom located on a mirror plane. The piperazine ring adopts a chair conformation. In the crystal, the cations are linked with the anions via N-H⋯O hydrogen bonding into chains pa...

The title compound, (C(5)H(14)N(2))[CuCl(4)], was synthesized by hydro-thermal reaction of CuCl(2) with 1-methyl-piperazine in an HCl/water solution. Both amine N atoms are protonated. The piperazine ring adopts a chair conformation. The Cu-Cl distances in the tetrahedral anion are in the range 2.2360 (7)-2.2732 (7) Å. In the crystal, moderately strong and weak inter-molecular N-H⋯Cl hydrogen b...

Crystals of the one-dimensional organic-inorganic lead iodide-based compound catena-poly[bis-(piperazine-1,4-diium) [[tetra-iodido-plumbate(II)]-μ-iodido] iodide monohydrate], (C4N2H12)2[PbI5]I·H2O, were obtained by slow evaporation at room temperature of a solution containing lead iodide and piperazine in a 1:2 molar ratio. Inorganic lead iodide chains, organic (C4N2H12)(2+) cations, water mol...

In the title compound {systematic name: 1-(2-hy-droxy-eth-yl)-4-[3-(2-trifluoro-methyl-10H-phenothia-zin-10-yl)prop-yl]piperazine-1,4-diium dichloride dimethanol disolvate}, C(22)H(28)F(3)N(3)OS(2+)·2Cl(-)·2CH(3)OH, the dihedral angle between the planes of the two outer benzene rings of the tricyclic phenothia-zine system is 46.91 (13)°. The piperazine ring adopts a chair conformation. The crys...

The mol-ecule of the title compound, C(30)H(32)N(4)O(2), lies on a twofold rotation axis that passes through the mid-points of the C-C bonds of the piperazine ring, which adopts a chair conformation. The pyrrolidine ring that is fused to the piperazine ring adopts an envelope conformation (in which the N atom represents the flap). The indoline fused-ring system is nearly planar (r.m.s. deviatio...

Cyclizine (1-benzhydryl-4-methyl-piperazine, CAS 82-92-8, CYC, I), a piperazine derivative, belongs to H1 antihistamine group of drugs that shows such pharmacological properties as anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic and anti-platelet effects, similar to other H1-receptor antagonists. In this study, two new tolyl and cumene derivatives of I (1-ethyl- 4-[(p-isopropylphenyl) (p-tolyl) methyl]-pipera...

In the titile compound, C(18)H(20)Cl(2)N(2)O(2), the piperazine ring adopts a chair conformation. The mol-ecule has a non-crystallographic inversion centre in the middle of the piperazine ring at approximate position (3/4, 1/8, 3/8). There are intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds forming S(6) ring motifs. Inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds generate anti-parallel C(5) chain motifs propagating ...
