We investigated the ground- and photoexcited-state chiralities of two chiral fluorophores with a rigid framework embedded in two achiral polyurethanes as the solid matrices. As the fluorophores, we used two pairs of atropisomeric binaphthyl derivatives, (R)-(−)-1,1′-binaphthyl-2,2′-diyl hydrogen phosphate [(R)-1a] and (R)-(−)-(3,5-dioxa-4-phosphacyclohepta-[2,1-a:3,4-a′]dinaphthalen-4-yl)-dimet...

IN THE CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF THE TITLE COMPOUND [SYSTEMATIC NAME: 2-(4b-fluoro-5-hy-droxy-4a,6a,8,8-tetra-methyl-2-oxo-2,4a,4b,5,6,6a,9a,10,10a,10b,11,12-dodeca-hydro-7,9-dioxa-penta-leno[2,1-a]phenanthren-6b-yl)-2-oxoethyl acetate], C(26)H(33)FO(7), the mol-ecules are connected by inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into an infinite supra-molecular chain along the b axis. The mol-ecular framew...

The title mol-ecule, C(48)H(42)N(2)O(2)Si(4), lies on a twofold rotation axis. The eight-membered ring has a slightly distorted boat conformation.

The title compound, C(56)H(56)Ge(4)O(2)·2CH(2)Cl(2) or Tol(8)Ge(4)O(2)·2CH(2)Cl(2) (Tol = p-CH(3)C(6)H(4)), was obtained serendipitously during the attempted synthesis of a branched oligogermane from Tol(3)GeNMe(2) and PhGeH(3). The mol-ecule contains an inversion center in the middle of the Ge(4)O(2) ring which is in a chair conformation. The Ge-Ge bond distance is 2.4418 (5) Å and the Ge-O bo...

The crystal structure of the title compound, C(9)H(12)O(4)S, was determined in order to investigate the effect of the eclipsed O atoms on the bond length of the vicinal quaternary C atoms. The two quaternary C atoms of the noradamantane skeleton and the two O atoms to which they are connected all located essentially in the same plane (maximum deviation = 0.01 Å), resulting in an eclipsed confor...
