Synthesis and characterisation of new permethylpentalene (Pn*) zirconium bis(amido) Pn*Zr cyclopentadienyl mono(amido) complexes their reactivity with carbon dioxide.

Spinach leaf (Spinacia oleracea L.) discs infiltrated with [(15)N]glycine were incubated at 25 degrees C in the light and in darkness for 0, 30, 60 and 90 minutes. The kinetics of (15)N-incorporation into glutamine, glutamate, asparagine, aspartate, and serine from [(15)N]glycine was determined. At the beginning of the experiment, just after infiltration (0 min incubation) serine, and the amido...

The specific deamidation of 2-acetamido-1,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-alpha-D-glucopyranose is achieved by p-toluenesulfonic acid-promoted hydrolysis of 2-methyl-(3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-1,2-dideoxy-alpha-D-glucopyrano)-[2,1 -d]-2- oxazoline 2 to give quantitative formation of the 1,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-2-amino-2-deoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranose p-toluenesulfonate (5d). This two-step procedure provides an amino...

A new series of 2-[2-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)amino]phenyl methyl -3-[(1-phenyl-5-substituted phenyl)-5-hydro-1H-pyrazol-3-yl-amino]-6,8-dibromoquinazolin-4(3H)-ones C1-13 have been synthesized by the reaction of 2-[2-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)amino]phenylmethyl-3-substituted phenyl chromene amido-6,8-dibromo-quinazolin-4(3H)-ones with phenylhydrazine in the presence of glacial acetic acid. The chalcones ...

In the heterometallic title bulky amido complex, [LiNa(C15H21N2Si)2(C6H16N2)], both alkali metal ions are four-coordinated with distorted tetra-hedral geometries. The Li(+) ion is N,N'-chelated by the N-silylated amido ligand, with Li-N = 2.015 (5) and 2.074 (5) Å. The two amido ligands are arranged cis to each other. The mol-ecule exhibits a twofold rotational symmetry operation along the Li-N...

Two crystal structures of sulfate inclusion complexes in an aza- and amido-cryptand represent the first examples of encapsulated sulfate in synthetic cryptand receptors and indicate penta- and octa-coordination, respectively.

Preparations of de novo acyclic 2-amido-dienes and 3-amido-trienes through 1,3-hydrogen shifts from allenamides are described. These 1,3-hydrogen shifts could be achieved thermally or they could be promoted by the use of Brønsted acids. Under either condition, these processes are highly regioselective in favour of the α-position, and highly stereoselective in favour of the E-configuration. In a...

A polymer-assisted solution-phase (PASP) synthesis of lead structure analogues ready for biological testing without the demand for chromatographic purification is described. Carboxylic acids are coupled to the Kenner or Ellman safety catch linker, respectively, activated by methylation or cyanomethylation and subsequently transferred to the 2'-amino group of the 2'-amino-2'-deoxyadenosine scaff...

Smectite clays are hydrated layer silicates that, like micas, occur naturally in abundance. Importantly, they have readily modifiable interlayer spaces that provide excellent sites for nanochemistry. Vermiculite is one such smectite clay and in the presence of small chain-length alkyl-NH(3)Cl ions forms sensitive, 1-D ordered model clay systems with expandable nano-pore inter-layer regions. The...
