The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(18)H(17)ClN(2)O(2)·0.5H(2)O, contains two organic mol-ecules and one solvent water mol-ecule. In each organic mol-ecule, the cyclo-hexene ring adopts an envelope conformation with the C atom connecting the two methyl groups on the flap; the 4H-pyran ring is nearly planar [maximum deviation = 0.113 (3) Å in one mol-ecule and 0.089 (3) Å in the other m...

The reaction of cyclopentanone with cyanoacetylhydrazine gave 2-cyano-2-cyclopentylideneacetohydrazide (1). Treatment of compound 1 with elemental sulphur in the presence of triethylamine afforded 2-amino-5,6-dihydro- -4H-cyclopenta[b]thiophene-3-carbohydrazide (2), which in-turn formed the corresponding intermediate diazonium salt. The latter was coupled with either ethyl cyanoacetate or ethyl...

In this work, we present our achievements in color tunability in novel multilayer organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) based on DCM (4-(Dicyanomethylene)-2-methyl-6-[p(dimethylamino)styryl]-4H-pyran) as red emitter doped in a composite PVK:TPD holetransporting layer, DPVBi (4,4′-Bis(2,2-diphenylvinyl)-1,1′-biphenyl) as a separate blue emitting layer, BAlq (aluminum bis(2-methyl-8-quinolinate)-...

A three-component cascade reaction of salicylaldehyde, malononitrile/cyanoacetate and nitromethane catalysed by chiral tertiary amino-thioureas was developed, which leads to the production of highly functionalized 2-amino-4H-chromenes in good yields with good to excellent enantioselectivities.

In the title compound, C19H14FN3O3, the central pyran ring adopts a boat conformation with the O atom and the quaternary C atom diagonally opposite displaced by 0.068 (1) and 0.075 (1) Å, respectively, above the mean plane defined by the other four ring atoms. The co-planar atoms of the pyran ring and the fluoro-phenyl ring are nearly perpendicular, as evidenced by the dihedral angle of 87.11 (...

Docking and molecular dynamics simulations have been carried out to investigate the interaction of a traditional Chinese medicine, WenQingYin, with the glutamate receptor 2 (GluR2) subunit of the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptor. Four representative drug components of WenQingYin, namely 2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-5,6,7-trihydroxy-4H-chromen-4-one (PHF), 4-hydrox...

The photoexcited dynamics of a laser dye, 4-(dicyanomethylene)-2-methyl-6-(4-dimethylaminostyryl)-4H-pyran (DCM), in an acetonitrile solution and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) were studied by pump–probe spectroscopy with 6-fs ultraviolet laser. UV light excites the DCM solved any or DMSO into locally excited (LE) state (via S0→S2 excitation), then LE relaxes to charge transfer state. In previous st...
