This work deals with the determination, using equilibrium and nonequilibrium molecular dynamics, of the viscosity of an ionic liquid: 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([emim][Tf2N]). A first method consists in computing the shear viscosity using the Green-Kubo formalism from the pressure tensor correlation function obtained from equilibrium simulations. On the other...

We are examining surface characteristics of ultraviolet pulsed-laser micromachined structures in polymide as a function of the incident laser energy and the distance between subsequent laser spots in order to prepare surfaces for laser direct-write deposition of metals. Variations in the spot-to-spot translation distance provide an alternative means of average depth and roughness control when c...

The title compound, C(13)H(16)N(3)O(+)·PF(6) (-), which has an imide group in the imidazolium cation, is a new ionic liquid above its melting point. Two neighbouring mol-ecules are connected by a weak non-classical C-H⋯O hydrogen bond with the formation of centrosymmetric 14-membered dimers.

The preparation of a number of cyclic imide 5-HT(1A) receptor ligand derivatives has been described. Their structures were conformationally constrained by introducing rigid linkers containing unsaturated bonds or aromatic benzene rings. These compounds are expected to possess anxiolytic and antidepressant activity.

[formula: see text] [Cu(S,S)-t-Bu-box](OTf)2 (1) catalyzes the enantioselective amination of enolsilanes with azodicarboxylate derivatives. Isomerically pure enolsilanes of aryl ketones, acylpyrroles, and thioesters added to the azo-imide in greater than 95% ee. The use of an alcohol additive was critical to achieving catalyst turnover.

The title compound, C(22)H(28)N(2), which is a double imine derived from ethane-1,2-diamine and mesityl aldehyde, has crystallographic inversion symmetry, with both C=N bonds E configured. The dihedral angle between the mesityl ring system and the imide functional group is 23.89 (17)°.

Treatment of d(1) [(nacnac)TiCl(Ntol(2))] with NaN(3) results in NaCl formation and N(2) ejection to yield the first four coordinate, parent imide [(nacnac)Ti=NH(Ntol(2))] (nacnac(-)=[ArNC(CH(3))](2)CH, Ar = 2,6-iPr(2)C(6)H(3), tol = 4-CH(3)C(6)H(4)).

Asymmetrically substituted perylene imide derivatives PIa and PIx display phosphorescence in glassy matrices at 77 K. The lifetime is 49.0 ms for PIa and 13.5 ms for PIx. The triplet energy is 1.79 eV for PIa and 1.68 eV for PIx as confirmed by sensitization experiments of the C(60) triplet.
