The S-(5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl) O-alkyl carbonothioate (4-9) and the alkyl 2-((5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)thio) acetate (10-15) were synthesized by interaction of 5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiones with esters chloroformic acid chloroacetic acid. yields target compounds (7-9) obtained isobutyl chloroformate 69-73%, (4-6) propyl - 74-79% 86-92%, respectively. structures confirmed IR, UV, 1H ...

Facile rearrangement of azobenzenes is shown to occur in cases where the azo group is placed in the ortho position to carbonyl electrophiles to furnish the indazole skeleton. While this study demonstrates the illusive nature of o-formylazobenzenes, it offers potential for the synthesis of indazoles and related heterocycles.

To gain further insight into the structural requirements of the aliphatic group at position 2 for their antimycobacterial activity, some N-alkyl-4-(1H)-quinolones bearing position 2 alkynyls with various chain length and triple bond positions were prepared and tested for in vitro antibacterial activity against rapidly-growing strains of mycobacteria, the vaccine strain Mycobacterium bovis BCG, ...

In this study, perfluorinated phosphonic acid modifications were utilized to modify zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles because they create a more stable surface due to the electronegativity of the perfluoro head group. Specifically, 12-pentafluorophenoxydodecylphosphonic acid, 2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzylphosphonic acid, and (1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorododecyl)phosphonic acid have been used to form thin f...
