The molecules in (E)-N-(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzylidene)naphthalen-1-amine, C20H19NO3, (I), and its reduction product N-(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzyl)naphthalen-1-amine, C20H21NO3, (II), are both conformationally chiral, but (I) crystallizes in a centrosymmetric space group, while (II) crystallizes with just one conformational enantiomer in each crystal. A combination of two C-H···O hydrogen bonds links ...

In the title compound, C36H28O4, the two 2-naphthoyl groups at the 1- and 8-positions of the central 2,7-dieth-oxy-naphthalene ring system are aligned almost anti-parallel and make a dihedral angle of 48.35 (5)°. The dihedral angles between the central 2,7-dieth-oxy-naphthalene ring system and the terminal naphthalene ring systems are 77.64 (4) and 73.73 (4)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are lin...

An efficient and direct procedure for the synthesis of benzo[h]-indeno[1,2-b]-quinoline derivatives has been described. The procedure employs a three-component condensation reaction in one-pot using 2H-indene-1, 3-dione, naphthalen-1-amine,and aldehydes in the presence of catalytic amount of L-prolinein aqueous media.

We report a green and efficient method for the synthesis of 8-aryl-6-thioxo-6H-1,9-dioxa-7-aza-cyclopenta[a]naphthalen-3-one from condensation ammonium thiocyanate acid chlorides with 7-...

The title compound, P(C10H7)3·0.5CHCl3, was isolated after the unsuccessful reaction of KSeCN and tris-(naphthalen-1-yl)phosphane. The solvent mol-ecule is disordered about an inversion center. The effective cone angle of the phosphine is 203°. In the crystal, weak C-H⋯Cl and C-H⋯π inter-actions are observed.

A novel intramolecular annulation of 1-(2-alkynylphenoxy)propan-2-ones catalyzed by iron, an economical and environmentally-benign transition metal, has been developed; this new atom-economical route includes dual C-H functionalizations to construct the naphthalen-1-ol or anthracen-1-ol skeletons.

In the copper(II) complex, bis-{(E)-1-[(2,4,6-tri-bromo-phen-yl)diazen-yl]naph-thalen-2-olato}copper(II), [Cu(C16H8Br3N2O)2], (I), the metal cation is coord-inated by two N atoms and two O atoms from two bidentate (E)-1-[(2,4,6-tri-bromo-phen-yl)diazen-yl]naphthalen-2-olate ligands, forming a slightly distorted square-planar environment. In one of the ligands, the tri-bromo-benzene ring is incl...
