Nanocrystalline Zinc Oxide (ZnO) powders with different morphology have been successfully synthesized by using different surfactants such as Cetyl Trimethyl Ammonium Bromide (CTAB), Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate (SDS), and Tri Ethanol Amine (TEA) via hydrothermal method. The products were characterized by means of powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Transmission electr...

The title salt, C18H26N42+·2Cl-, was obtained by the protonation of N,N-bis-(pyridin-4-ylmeth-yl)cyclo-hexane-1,4-di-amine with hydro-chloric acid in ethanol. The asymmetric unit consists of one half of an N,N-bis-(pyridin-3-ylmeth-yl)cyclo-hexane-1,4-di-ammonium dication, with a crystallographic inversion centre located at the centre of the cyclo-hexyl ring, and a chloride anion. The central c...

Ethanol has multiple effects on biochemical events in a variety of cell types, including the high-affinity immunoglobulin E receptor (FcεRI) signaling in antigen-activated mast cells. However, the underlying molecular mechanism remains unknown. To get better understanding of the effect of ethanol on FcεRI-mediated signaling we examined the effect of short-term treatment with non-toxic concentra...

In the title racemic compound, C14H15NO, the hy-droxy and amino groups form a bent tweezer-like motif towards the phenyl groups. In the crystal, enanti-omers aggregate with each other and are linked by O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming chiral 21-helical columnar structures from C(5) chains along the b-axis direction. Left- and right-handed 21 helices are formed from (1S,2R)-2-amino-1,2-di-phenyl-et...

The Ag(I) atom in the title compound, [Ag(NO(3))(C(10)H(20)N(4))(2)]·C(2)H(5)OH·H(2)O, is coordinated by the N atoms of two N-heterocycles [N-Ag-N = 151.5 (1)°]; the approximately linear coordination geometry is distorted into a T-shaped geometry owing to a long Ag⋯O(nitrate) bond [2.717 (4) Å]. The N atoms of the N-heterocycles that are not involved in coordination point towards the lattice wa...

The synthesis and the evaluation as organocatalysts of new chiral guanidines derived from benzimidazoles in the enantioselective α-amination of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds using di-t-butylazodicarboxylate as aminating agent is herein disclosed. The catalysts are readily synthesized through the reaction of 2-chlorobezimidazole and a chiral amine in moderate-to-good yields. Among all of them, those ...
