Aromatic substitution reactions between 1,3-diaminobenzene and chloronitrobenzofurazan derivatives have never been reported so far. The aim of the current study was to synthesize novel electron-donor and -acceptor architectures of interest in applied fields and to provide new insights on the nucleophilic behavior of 1,3-diaminobenzenes. The reaction of 1,3-dipiperidinyl-, 1,3-dimorpholinyl-, 1,...

The conductance of individual 1,4-benzenediamine (BDA)-Au molecular junctions is measured in different solvent environments using a scanning tunneling microscope based point-contact technique. Solvents are found to increase the conductance of these molecular junctions by as much as 50%. Using first principles calculations, we explain this increase by showing that a shift in the Au contact work ...

Phenylenediamine bis(phenolate) binds in the reduced dianionic form to titanium and zirconium alkoxides giving either mononuclear or bridging dinuclear complexes depending on the metal precursors; the fluxional mononuclear titanium complex is found to exhibit extremely high activity in polymerisation of rac-lactide in the melt.

BACKGROUND Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease, while allergic contact dermatitis although immune mediated, is considered an exposure driven disease that develops due to epicutaneous contact with reactive low-molecular chemicals. The objective of the present study was to experimentally study the effect of contact allergens on the development of diabetes in NOD mice. As the link between con...

A water soluble, Bronsted acid, 5-sulfosalicylic acid as an efficient organocatalyst was used for the synthesis of physiologically active 2-substituted benzimidazole derivatives from o-phenylenediamine and aromatic aldehydes in ethanol at reflux condition. Cost-effectiveness, use of non-hazardous solvents, metal free and commercially available catalyst, single-step, environmentally fri...

A series of heterocyclic acene diimides were synthesized effectively based on the condensation of o-phenylenediamine, 1,2-benzenedithiol, and 2-aminothiophenol with 2,3,6,7-tetrabromo-1,4,5,8-naphthalene tetracarboxylic diimide. The diimides exhibit interesting optical and electrical properties with one of them showing a hole mobility up to 0.02 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1).

2-Methylpyridinium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([2-MPyH]OTf) catalyzed synthesis of 1,5benzodiazepine and quinoxaline derivatives in the reaction of between o-phenylenediamine and ketone (synthesis of 1,5-benzodiazepine derivatives) or 1,2-diketone (synthesis of quinoxaline derivatives) in high yields and short time reaction. The catalyst can be separated from the products by a change in the solv...

Herein, we synthesized 2,3-diaminophenazine (DAP) from o-phenylenediamine (OP) using fungal laccase as a biocatalyst. The conversion ratio of OP monomer was 85% and the yield of the final purified product, DAP, was 63%. The structure of the main product, DAP, was confirmed by using several spectroscopy techniques (UV-VIS, IR, 2DNMR, and MS).

This communication presents two regioisomeric fluorescent PET Hg(II) sensors RS, which contain a novel o-phenylenediamine based triamide receptor; RS could be used to detect Hg(II) with exclusive selectivity, high fluorescence enhancement, and fast and reversible response in a neutral buffered aqueous solution.
