Reductive ring contraction of 1,3-diphenyl-1,4-dihydrobenzo[e][1,2,4]triazin-4-yls (Blatter's radicals) using zinc powder (2 equiv.) in acetic acid heated to ca. 118 °C gives 1,2-diphenylbenzimidazoles in high yield. 1,3-Diphenylbenzo[e][1,2,4]triazin-7(1H)-one and the zwitterionic tetraphenylhexaazaanthracene (TPHA) also undergo reductive ring contractions to give 1,2-diphenylbenzimidaz-6-ol a...

Reaction of a tetraphenyl-1,2-diphosphinyl dianion with [FeCl2(THF)1.5] or [Ru(COD)(acac)2] yields dianionic complexes which further react with Ph3SnCl to afford the corresponding bis(1,4-diphosphabutadiene) complexes.

A fluorimetric/colorimetric mercury sensor based on Au@SiO(2) core/shell nanoparticles has been developed and demonstrated. The porphyrin derivative (2) was attached to Au@SiO(2) core/shell nanoparticles by covalent bonds and showed a red color and strong fluorescent properties. In the absence of specific metal ions, the porphyrin-functionalized Au@SiO(2) nanoparticles (1) exhibited strong fluo...

Background In stabilization of the G-quadruplex, formation of a Hoogsteen base-pair between the guanine (G) bases is essential. However, the contribution of each Hoogsteen base-pair at different positions to whole stability of the G-quadruplex has not been known. In this study, the effect of a deficiency of the Hoogsteen type hydrogen bond in the G-quadruplex stability was investigated. Spectra...

porophyrins and their metal derivatives are strong dna binders with association constant of  to  . some of these compounds have been used for the radiations sensitization therapy of cancer and are targeted to interact with cellular dna. binding of porphyrins to dna changes the expectral and other physic chemical characteristic of porphyrins, the mode of binding can be extracted from inspection ...

The complexation of (3aR,7aR)-N-(3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)octahydro-2H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-imine (BTI), as a guest, to ethane-bridged bis(zinc octaethylporphyrin), bis(ZnOEP), host, has been studied by means ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) and circular dichroism (CD) absorption spectroscopies, single crystal X-ray diffraction, computational simulation. formation 1:2 host-guest complex was est...

A novel potentiometric ion-selective PVC membrane sensor for analysis of atorvastatin (AT) in pharmaceutical preparations based on atorvastatin-(tetraphenyl borate), (AT-(TPB)2) as sensing element, tetraphenyl borate as additive and tris-2-ethyl-hexyl phosphate (TOP) as plasticizer solvent was prepared. The electrode shows a good Nernestian response over the concentration range of 0.09-5586 μg ...

Abstract. Porphyrin rings containing two meso-pyridyl groups either in cis or trans fashion can be used to construct Re(I) bridged multiporphyrin assemblies. The cis-dipyridyl porphyrins with various porphyrin cores such as N4, N3O, N3S, N2S2 have been used to react with Re(CO)5Cl in THF at refluxing temperature and constructed planar Re(I) bridged porphyrin dyads containing either one type of ...

Two types of porphyrin free base, meso-tetra(4-vinylphenyl)porphyrin and meso-tetra(4-stilbenyl)porphyrin, were synthesized and characterized. Metallation was achieved by insertion of MnCl24H2O. Oxidative electropolymerization of the manganese porphyrin monomers by cyclic scans would anchor the resulting materials on glassy carbon electrodes. It was found that both poly (manganese tetra(4-vinyl...

effects of imidazoles and substituted pyridines and pure s-donors on the oxidation of cyclooctene with naio4 by 5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrinato-manganese(iii) acetate, mn(tpp)oac, and 5,10,15,20-tetramesitylporphyrinato-manganese(iii) acetate, mn(tmp)oac, catalysts in ch2cl2-h2o solvent are studied. coordination of the nitrogen donors to the mn-catalysts generally caused a reduction in the e...
