We report a one-pot, two-step strategy to synthesize fluorescent gold nanodots (AuNDs) co-modified with 1-(10-mercaptodecyl)-5-methylpyrimidine-2,4-dione (TSH) and 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (MUA) through a ligand exchange reaction and demonstrate their capability of selective sulfide sensing in aqueous media on the basis of fluorescence recovery.

5-Hydroxytryptamine type 2A (5-HT2A) receptor is an important target for developing innovative antipsychotic agents in neuropsychiatric disorder therapies. To search for 5-HT2A receptor antagonists, a new indole alkaloid termed 6-bromo-N-propionyltryptamine (1), together with one known homologue 6-bromo-N-acetyltryptamine (2) were isolated and identified from a marine bacterium Pseudoalteromona...

In the title compound, C7H4BrFO, the benzaldehyde O atom is found to be trans to the 2-bromo substituent. In the crystal, short Br⋯F inter-actions between the bromine and fluorine substituents are observed at distances of 3.1878 (14), 3.3641 (13) and 3.3675 (14) Å. Offset face-to-face π-stacking inter-actions are also observed for both of the independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit runnin...

In the title compound, [FePt(C(5)H(5))(C(24)H(19)NP)Cl(2)]·0.5CH(2)Cl(2), the Pt(II) atom adopts a distorted square-planar geometry defined by one P atom and one N atom from the bidentate [2-(diphenyl-phosphino)phenyl-imino-meth-yl]ferro-cene ligand and two Cl atoms. Two disordered dichloro-methane solvent mol-ecules are each 0.25-occupied on a twofold rotation axis.

Higher fungi have a widespread capacity for biosynthesis of organohalogens. Commonly occurring chloroaromatic fungal metabolites can end up in anaerobic microniches at the boundary of fungal colonies and wetland soils. The aim of this study was to investigate the environmental fate of a major fungal metabolite, 3, 5-dichloro-p-anisyl alcohol, under anaerobic conditions. This compound was incuba...

The title compound, C(32)H(36)Br(2)O(2), was prepared by the reaction of 6-bromo-1-(2-bromo-6-hydroxy-naphthalen-5-yl)-naphthalen-2-ol and 1-iodo-hexane. The dihedral angle between the naphthalene ring planes is 63.8 (9)° The crystal structure may be stabilized by two very weak π-π inter-actions involving the six-membered rings, with centroid-centroid distances of 4.012 (4) and 4.010 (4) Å. The...

An equimolar reaction of 5-chlorosalicylaldehyde and 2-bromo-4-chloroaniline yielded the Schiff base ( Z )-2-((2-bromo-4-chlorophenyl)imino)methyl)-4-chlorophenol) (HL), which was used for complexation to Co 2+ , Ni Cu Zn metal salts.

The title compound, C(15)H(15)BrO(2), was synthesized by a Brønsted acid-catalysed domino electrocyclization-halogenation reaction. The five-membered ring is essentially planar (r.m.s. deviation 0.006 Å) and forms a dihedral angle of 72.7 (3)° with the attached phenyl ring. The six-membered heterocycle adopts a half-chair conformation. The crystal packing is stabilized by a C-H⋯O contact.
