Reaction of tryptamine 1 with dimethyl -3-methoxyallylidenemalonate 2 afforded N?-[4,4-bis (methoxycarbonyl)-1,3-butadienyl] tryptamine 3 which in combination with acetylchloride and pyridine in dichloromethane gave N?, N?-[acetyl]-[(4,4-dinethoxycarbonyl) 1,3butadienyl] tryptamine 4. Treatment of 3 with sodium hydroxide afforded 2H[N-(3-indolyl) ethyl] 2-oxo-3-methoxycarbonyl-1-pyridine 5. Cy...

Simple and efficient procedures for palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of N-substituted 4-bromo-7-azaindole (1H-pyrrole[2,3-b]pyridine), with amides, amines, amino acid esters and phenols through C-N and C-O bond formation have been developed. The C-N cross-coupling reaction of amides, amines and amino acid esters takes place rapidly by using the combination of Xantphos, Cs(2)CO(3), d...

In the title compound, (C(7)H(11)N(2))[Er(H(2)O)(8)]Cl(4)·H(2)O, the asymmetric unit consists of one 4-(dimethyl-amino)-pyridinium and one octa-aqua-erbium cation balanced by four Cl(-) anions, and one water mol-ecule. The 4-(dimethyl-amino)-pyridinium cation is protonated at the pyridine N atom. The dimethyl-amino group (C/N/C) lies close to the plane of the pyridinium ring, making a dihedral ...

In the title salt, C(5)H(7)N(2) (+)·C(10)H(9)O(2) (-), 2-amino-pyridine and 1-phenyl-cyclo-propane-1-carb-oxy-lic acid crystallize together, forming a 2-amino-pyridinium-carboxyl-ate supra-molecular heterosynthon involving two N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which in turn dimerizes to form a four-component supra-molecular unit also sustained by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonding. A C-H⋯π inter-action between a pyrid...

The structure of the title salt, (C5H6BrN2)[ZnCl3(C5H5BrN2)], consists of discrete 2-amino-5-bromo-pyridin-1-ium cations and distorted tetra-hedral (2-amino-5-bromo-pyridine)-tri-chlorido-zincate anions. In the crystal, the complex anions and cations are linked via N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds into layers parallel to (101). Short Br⋯Cl contacts of 3.4239 (11) and 3.4503 (12) Å are observed, as well as...

Reaction of tris(5-amino-2-ethoxy-3-isopropylphenyl)methane and pyridine-2,6-dicarbonyl-dichloride affords a multi-dentate cryptand in 48% yield. Metallation with iron(III) chloride results in a substantial conformational change of this ligand to give a trianionic triiron(III) complex. Ferric cations line the periphery of the internal cavity with each adopting a square pyramidal N(3)Cl(2) coord...

The title compound, C(12)H(9)NO(2)S, belongs to the nitro-gen-containing group of heterocyclic organic compounds and crystallized with two mol-ecules per asymmetric unit. In the crystal, both molecules form inversion dimers linked by pairs of O-H-O hydrogen bonds. Weak symmetry-related C-H-O inter-actions link the carboxyl dimers along b axis. The dihedral angle between the two aromatic rings i...
