Two non-fullerene small molecules based on fluoranthene-fused imide were developed as acceptors for solution-processed inverted organic bulk heterojunction (BHJ) solar cells, which showed good power conversion efficiency and high open-circuit voltage.

The indirect electroreductive coupling of aryl halides and pyrroles was successfully conducted using a catalytic amount of perylene bisimide as a mediator in 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis((trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl)imide ([EMIM]NTf2)/DMSO.

We reveal here the unique reactivity of α-(alkylideneamino)nitriles toward molecular oxygen. Thus, α-(alkylideneamino)nitriles can serve as the imide building block for the efficient synthesis of imides in the absence of transition metals under extremely mild conditions.

Bilirubin can be coupled covalently to albumin by using water-soluble carbodi-imide as coupling reagent. The optimal specificity in the attachment of bilirubin to the high-affinity site on the albumin molecule was obtained by treating an albumin-bilirubin complex with carbodi-imide in low concentrations and for a short period. The product was reduced, carboxymethylated and digested with trypsin...

The title compound, C24H16N2S4, consists of a central pyromellitic di-imide substituted with an S atom and terminal benzyl groups. The mol-ecule lies on a crystallographic inversion centre so that the asymmetric unit contains half of the mol-ecule. The mol-ecule was prepared by thio-nation of N,N'-di-benzyl-pyromellitic di-imide with Lawesson's reagent and has an S-shaped conformation similar t...

A series of 17 long-chain arylpiperazines containing bulky, complex imide systems (5,8-dimethyl-3b,9-epoxy-(3a,4,5,6,7,8,9,9a)-octahydro-1Hbenzo[e]isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione or 4,9-diphenyl-4,9-epoxy-3a,4,9,9a-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[f]isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione) was synthesized and evaluated for their affinity for serotonin 5-HT , 5-HT and dopamine D receptors. Most of the new compounds showed moderate ...

Copoly(ethylene terephthalate-imide)s (PETIs) were synthesized by the melt copolycondensation of bis(2-hydroxyethyl)terephthalate with a new imide monomer, N,N9-bis[p-(2-hydroxyethoxycarbonyl)phenyl]-biphenyl-3,39,4,49-tetracarboxydiimide (BHEI). The copolymers were characterized by intrinsic viscosity, Fourier transform infrared, H NMR, differential scanning calorimetry, and thermogravimetric ...

Lithium metal is an ideal battery anode. However, dendrite growth and limited Coulombic efficiency during cycling have prevented its practical application in rechargeable batteries. Herein, we report that the use of highly concentrated electrolytes composed of ether solvents and the lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide salt enables the high-rate cycling of a lithium metal anode at high Coulombic ef...

In this article six new copoly(amide-imide)s (11a-c) were synthesized through the directpolycondensation reaction of 1,3-bis[4,4'-(trimellitimido) phenoxy] propane (6) with 3,3'-diamino diphenyl sulfone (7), 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether (8) and 1,5-naphtalene (9) in thepresence of fumaric acid (10) as a second diacid in a medium consisting of N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, triphenyl phosphite, calcium c...

In the mononuclear title complex, [CuBr(C20H12N3O2)(C3H7NO)], synthesized from the quinoline-derived reduced Schiff base 4-(quinolin-2-ylmeth-yl)amino-phenol, the coordination geometry around Cu(2+) is distorted square-pyramidal, comprising a bromide anion at the apex [Cu-Br = 2.4671 (5) Å]. The base of the pyramid is built up from one di-methyl-formamide O-atom donor [Cu-O = 2.078 (2) Å] and t...
