The carcinogen 4,4'-diaminobiphenyl (benzidine) has been compared in vitro with its terphenyl analogue 4,4''-diaminoterphenyl using the Salmonella reverse mutation assay and the BHK cell-transformation assay. The responses observed, taken together with a consideration of chemical structures, indicate that the terphenyl compound is a potential carcinogen. These findings may contribute to an unde...

A series of single-walled carbon nanotube precursors, C3h-symmetric cyclotri(ethynylene)(biphenyl-2,4'-diyl) and cyclotri(ethynylene)(p-terphenyl-2,4″-diyl), have been prepared by a linear stepwise oligomerization-cyclization route and by statistical intermolecular cyclooligomerization. In addition to producing these members of a novel class of arylene ethynylene macrocycles, 1 and 2, the latte...

The coordination chemistry of copper has interest due to its use in biological systems as well as for photochemical and medicinal properties. We report the coordination chemistry of copper(i) complexes using terphenyl-based dithiocarboxylate, thiolate, and selenolate ligands. The number of metal ions of the resulting complexes can be tuned by varying the steric properties of the terphenyl ligan...

An approach to β-D-2-aminotalose- and β-D-2-aminoidose-configured carbohydrate mimetics bearing a phenyl substituent is described. Unnatural divalent rigid p-terphenyl-linked C-aryl glycosides with 2.0 nm dimension are available using Suzuki cross-couplings. The key compound, a p-bromophenyl-substituted 1,2-oxazine, was prepared by a stereoselective [3 + 3]-cyclization of a D-isoascorbic acid-d...

The reaction of m-terphenyl amine (2,6-bis-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)aniline, m-Ter = m-terphenyl = 2,6-bis-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)) and ECl(3) (E = P, As) in the presence of different bases (Et(3)N, n-BuLi, LDA, DBU) and under different reaction conditions was studied. The reaction with excess Et(3)N yielded m-Ter-N(H)-AsCl(2) for E = As, while for E = P m-Ter-N(PCl(2))(2) was formed. m-Ter-N(H)-...

Most river sediments are contaminated with organic and inorganic pollutants cause significant environmental damage health risks. This research is evaluated an in-situ sediment remediation method using ultrasound ozone nanobubbles to remove chemicals in sediments. Contaminated prepared by mixing synthetic fine (p-terphenyl) chemical (chromium). The treated under different operating conditions. F...

In the title solvate, C44H26Cl4O2·3C6H15N, the asymmetric part of the unit cell comprises two halves of the diol mol-ecules, 2,2''-bis-(2,7-di-chloro-9-hy-droxy-9H-fluoren-9-yl)-1,1':4',1''-terphenyl, and three mol-ecules of tri-ethyl-amine, i. e. the diol mol-ecules are located on crystallographic symmetry centres. Two of the solvent mol-ecules are disordered over two positions [occupancy rati...

Amide-substituted terphenyls adopt a well-defined conformation that allows the transmission of stereochemical information from a controlling centre to a reaction site 11 bond lengths away, providing a model of how extended polymeric systems might be used to communicate binary information.

The title compound, C(32)H(18)F(4)N(4)S(2), is a disulfide symmetric-ally substituted with two diaza-meta-terphenyl groups. In the crystal, the mol-ecule adopts a twisted conformation with a C-S-S-C torsion angle of -91.82 (7)°. One of the 4,6-(4-fluoro-phen-yl)pyrimidine groups is virtually planar, with dihedral angles between the pyrimidine and benzene groups of 4.00 (8) and 5.44 (8)°, wheare...

Dinickel bisphenoxyiminato complexes based on highly substituted p- and m-terphenyl backbones were synthesized, and the corresponding atropisomers were isolated. In the presence of a phosphine scavenger, Ni(COD)2, the phosphine-ligated syn-dinickel complexes copolymerized α-olefins and ethylene in the presence of amines to afford 0.2-1.3% α-olefin incorporation and copolymerized amino olefins a...
