The title compound, NaK5Cl2(S2O6)2 [systematic name: sodium penta-potassium dichloride bis-(di-thio-nate)], arose as an unexpected product from an organic synthesis that used di-thio-nite (S2O42-) ions as a reducing agent to destroy excess permanganate ions. Compared to the previous study [Stanley (1953 ▸). Acta Cryst.6, 187-196], the present tetra-gonal structure exhibits a root 2a × root 2a ×...

The title mol-ecule, C20H20N2S2, is T-shaped and consists of a nearly flat 5,6-dimethyl-2-(5-methyl-thio-phen-2-yl)benzimidazole system approximately perpendicular to the 5-methyl-thio-phen-2-ylmethyl substituent. The 5,6-dimethyl-2-(5-meth-yl-thio-phen-2-yl)benzimidazole system is rotationally disordered about the two imidazole N atoms as approximated by a twofold rotation axis with a refined ...

A plasmonic bioassay for the specific detection of human influenza virus has been developed based on gold nanoparticles functionalised with a designed and synthesised thiolated trivalent α2,6-thio-linked sialic acid derivative. The glyconanoparticles consist of the thiolated trivalent α2,6-thio-linked sialic acid derivative and a thiolated polyethylene glycol (PEG) derivative self-assembled ont...

Protein–protein interactions mediated through the C-terminal Bcl-2–associated athanogene (BAG) domain of BAG-1 are critical for cell survival and proliferation. Thioflavin S (NSC71948)—a mixture of compounds resulting from the methylation and sulfonation of primulin base—has been shown to dosedependently inhibit the interaction between BAG-1 and Hsc70 in vitro. In human breast cancer cell lines...

1. The local anaesthetic benzyl alcohol progressively activated glucagon-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity up to a maximum at 50 mM-benzyl alcohol. Further increases in benzyl alcohol concentration inhibited the activity. The fluoride-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity was similarly affected except for an inhibition of activity occurring at low benzyl alcohol concentrations (approx. 10 m...

Silica chloride converted benzyl or tert-butyl esters to the corresponding acid chlorides and alkyl chlorides. It also converted benzyl or tert-butyl phenyl ethers to the corresponding allcyl chlorides and phenol

In this work, we report a novel method for selective oxidation of benzyl alcohols to benzaldehydes. Neither solvent nor promoters are needed: a polymeric microporous membrane acts as a barrier to “keep in contact” the two phases: the organic phase containing the substrate, benzyl alcohols and the products, benzaldehydes and the aqueous phase with the catalyst and the oxidant, hydrogen peroxide....

We report the application of statistical multivariate analysis to optimize the process parameters (including temperature, O2 pressure, concentration of benzyl alcohol, Mn content, and K:Mn molar ratio) in the oxidation of benzyl alcohol using molecular oxygen over K-Mn/C catalysts. This multi-regression model, based on 38 experimental runs, shows reasonably accurate prediction on the benzyl alc...
