Ionic liquid 1-benzyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([BnMIm][NTf2]) can promote the generation of the ˙OOH free radical and thereby efficiently transformed the β-O-4 lignin model compound 2-phenoxyacetophenone into benzoic acid and phenol using O2 as the oxidant. Furthermore, the IL-based metal-free catalytic system can also depolymerize other lignin model compounds and ...

Plastic crystallinity of lithium salt, [LiB(OCH(2)CH(2)OCH(3))(4)] (1), and its solid-state ionic conductivity are disclosed. The addition of small amounts of lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) to borate 1 led to the drastic increase of the ionic conductivity and lithium transport number of the electrolyte.

Using quasielastic neutron scattering, we have investigated diffusion dynamics of protons in the protic ionic liquid, N,N,N',N'-tetramethylguanidinium bis(perfluoroethylsulfonyl)imide, a promising new compound for application as an electrolyte in proton-conducting fuel cells. A temperature range of 30-360 K has been studied. The melting temperature of N,N,N',N'-tetramethylguanidinium bis(perflu...

The exquisite specificity exhibited by many proteins for their respective ligands can often be attributed to particular structural features within the binding site. The Src homology 2 (SH2) domain of interleukin-2 tyrosine kinase (Itk) contains overlapping binding sites capable of mediating binding to two distinct ligands: a phosphotyrosine-containing peptide and the Itk Src homology 3 (SH3) do...

Organogels with perylene derivatives and phthalocyanines reported in the literature so far involve self-assembly promoted by hydrogen bonds, in addition to aromatic and van der Waals interactions. Although the self assembly of these types of molecules without a hydrogen bonding group in the structure occurs in solution or during crystallization, the gelation studies reported so far incorporated...

Abstract A high-concentration aqueous electrolyte with a wide electrochemical stability window represents novel development direction for traditional batteries. Herein, water-in-bisalt using LiFSI (lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide) and LiTFSI bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide) as supporting salts was first applied an of dual-ion battery, the solvated structure changes were studied in detail. E...

In this work, two new redox-active ionic liquids, one based on 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxide and the other 4,4?-bipyridine, are synthesized characterized. A ferrocene-based liquid is used for referencing results. All liquids formed via salt-metathesis from halogenate to bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide. Their fundamental thermal characteristics assessed with differential scanning calor...

The present work provides the explicit reaction pathways of (chlorosulfonyl)(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide in presence tertiary amines, as well several zwitterion compounds great interest for battery use.

In the title compound, C(10)H(8)ClNO(2), the dihedral angle between the aromatic benzene ring and the imide segment is 69.5 (1)°. In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are linked by very weak C-H⋯π inter-actions along the [001] direction.

The syntheses of a series of dipyrrolo[3,4-a:3,4-c]carbazole-1,3,4,6-tetraones, substituted in 10-position with saturated and unsaturated side chains, via palladium catalyzed cross-coupling reactions, are described. These compounds can be considered as granulatimide bis-imide analogues. Their inhibitory activity toward Chk1 kinase and their antiproliferative activities in vitro in four tumor ce...
