A novel copper-catalyzed oxidation of arene-fused cyclic amines to the corresponding cyclic imides has been developed. The reaction can be used to synthesize 1,3-disubstituted TPD in high yields.

Asymmetrically substituted perylene imide derivatives PIa and PIx display phosphorescence in glassy matrices at 77 K. The lifetime is 49.0 ms for PIa and 13.5 ms for PIx. The triplet energy is 1.79 eV for PIa and 1.68 eV for PIx as confirmed by sensitization experiments of the C(60) triplet.

The present study describes the cytotoxic properties of a series of 15 cyclic imides observed against different endothelial cells and K562 leukemic cells. Initially, eight structurally unrelated compounds were evaluated against cultured bone marrow endothelial cells (BMEC) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). Only two imides showed cytotoxic activity at 10 microM. In continuation...

A novel and practical procedure for preparation of imides is described using chromium(VI) oxide to catalyze the oxidation of N-alkylamides with periodic acid in the presence of acetic anhydride in acetonitrile.

We reveal here the unique reactivity of α-(alkylideneamino)nitriles toward molecular oxygen. Thus, α-(alkylideneamino)nitriles can serve as the imide building block for the efficient synthesis of imides in the absence of transition metals under extremely mild conditions.

This study includs the synthesis of some new Amic acid and Imides,starting from esters [S1] Terephthalic which then converted toits hydrazide [S2] to amic derivatives [S3-S7] finally withimides [S8-S12]. Preparing ester by usual esterification ofterephthalic with absolute ethanol in acidic medium, hasconverted its reacting it hydrazine hydrate. Theamic have been synthesized reaction ofhydrazide...

Molecular carbon imides featuring 12-fold [5]helicenes around four cores are reported by Guogang Liu, Yan Li, Zhaohui Wang et al. in their Research Article (e20224769). A molecule is shown the middle, surrounded building blocks of perylene diimides and benzenes.
