In the crystal structure of the title compound, (C(8)H(15)N(3))[MnCl(4)], the Mn atom is coordinated by four chloride ligands in a slightly distorted tetra-hedral geometry. Each [MnCl(4)](2-) anion is connected to the 1-cyano-methyl-1,4-diazo-niabicyclo-[2.2.2]octane dications by N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, forming chains parallel to [001].

A proteolipid protein having a high affinity for methyl (14)C-hexamethonium, (3)H-p-(trimethylammonium)-benzene diazonium fluoroborate, and (acetyl-1-(14)C)choline chloride was isolated and purified from the electric tissue of Torpedo marmorata and Electrophorus electricus. At variance with the "receptor proteolipid" from the brain the one from electric tissue apparently does not bind atropine ...

A simple chemical route for the exfoliation of kaolinite in the presence of polymerizable ionic liquids and the resulting obtainment of exfoliated nanocomposites is reported. The exfoliation was achieved using three different ionic liquids structurally bearing a vinyl group: 1-methyl-3-(4-vinylbenzyl)imidazolium chloride salt (IL_1), 1-methyl-1-(4-vinylbenzyl)pyrrolidinium chloride (IL_2), and ...

3-(1-Ethylamino-ethylidene)-1-methyl-pyrrolidine-2,4-dione was obtained as an unexpected product in a three-step synthesis starting with o-nitrobenzoyl sarcosine, acetoacetanilide and ethylamine. The compound showed moderate antibacterial activity against S. aureus E. coli.

The reaction of 4-methyl-2-phenyl-1,2-dihydro-6-oxo-5-pyridine- carbonitrile (1) with arylidene malononitrile afforded isoquinoline derivatives 2a,b. 6-Chloro-4-methyl-2-phenyl-5-pyridinecarbonitile (3) obtained by chlorination of compound 1 with phosphoryl chloride was converted into 6-amino-4-methyl-2-phenyl-5-pyridinecarbonitrile (4) and 6-hydrazido-4-methyl-2-phenyl-5-pyridinecarbonitrile (...

Three manganese(II) N-oxide complexes have been synthesized from the reaction of manganese(II) chloride with either pyridine N-oxide (PNO), 2-methyl-pyridine N-oxide (2MePNO) or 3-methyl-pyridine N-oxide (3MePNO). The compounds were synthesized from methano-lic solutions of MnCl2·4H2O and the respective N-oxide, and subsequently characterized structurally by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Th...

Reactions of the aminoiminophenols 2-((2-(dimethylamino)ethylimino)methyl)phenol (HL(1)) or 2-{(3-(dimethylamino)propylimino)methyl}phenol (HL(2)) with nickel(II) chloride, K(2)[PtCl(4)] or copper(II) acetate in alcoholic solution, in the absence or in the presence of sodium azide, afford the corresponding new mononuclear complexes [M(L(1))(X)(H(2)O)(n)] [M = Ni, X = Cl(-), n = 2 (); M = Ni, X ...
