The title compound, C(21)H(21)N(3)O, was obtained by cyclo-condensation of 3-amino-5-methyl-[1,1'-biphen-yl]-2,4-di-car-bo-nitrile with cyclo-hexa-none. The six-membered 1,3-diaza ring assumes an envelope conformation [with the flap atom displaced by 0.511 (7) Å from the plane through the other ring atoms] and the cyclo-hexane ring displays a chair conformation. The dihedral angle between the a...

The title compound, C(17)H(12)N(2)O·H(2)O, was synthesized by the reaction of 4,5-diaza-fluoren-9-one with a Grignard reagent in ether (the reaction mixture being hydrolysed with saturated NH(4)Cl solution), and crystallizes with two organic mol-ecules and two water mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. The 4,5-diaza-fluorene fragment is approximately planar, with r.m.s. deviations of 0.0448 and 0...

The functional group-containing potassium ionophore 19(5),24(5)-dibromo-4,7,13,16,20,23-hexaoxa-1,10-diaza-19(1,2),24(1,2)-dibenzabicyclo[8.8.6]tetracosaphane has been synthesized.

A series of six Bodipy derivatives, namely 4,4-difluoro-8-(4-amidophenyl)-1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (1), 4,4-difluoro-8-(4-methylphenyl)-1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (2), 4,4-difluoro-8-(4-nitrylphenyl)-1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (3), 4,4-difluoro-8-(4-amidophenyl)-3,5-dimethyl-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (4), 4,4-difluoro-8-...

The complexation reactions between Tl+ and Pb2+ ions and crown ethers 12-crown-4(12C4), 15-crown-5 (15C5), benzo-15-crown-5 (B15C5), 18-crown-6 (18C6), dicyclohexyl-18-crown-6 (DC18C6) and aza-18-crown-6 (A18C6) were studied in 90% acetonitrile and 90% ethanol solutions at 25 °C, using an a.c. polarographic technique. The stoichiometry and stability of the complexes we...

Oligonucleotides containing 7-bromo-7-deaza-2,8-diaza-2 0-deoxyadenosine (3) and 5-amino-3-bromo-4-carbamoyl-1-(2 0deoxy-b-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)pyrazole (4) were synthesized. Compound 3 was prepared from 7-bromo-8-aza-7-deaza-2 0-deoxyadenosine (5) via the 1,N-etheno derivative 6 and was converted into the phosphoramidite 11. The 7-bromo substituent of 3 increases oligonucleotide duplex sta...

The interaction between benzo-15-crown-5 (B15C5), dibenzo-18-crown-6 (DB18C6), dibenzyl-daza-18crown-6 (DBzDA18C6), N-phenyl-aza-15-crown-5 (NPhA15C5) and dibenzopyridine-18-crown-6 (DBPy18C6) with π-acceptor 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyanobenzoquinone (DDQ) in chloroform solution was studied spectrophotometrically. The interaction of B15C5-DDQ and DB18C6-DDQ caused the formation...
