A nonheme iron catalyst catalyzed stereoselective oxidation of alkanes with H2O2 with remarkable efficiency and exhibiting an unprecedented high incorporation of water into the oxidized products. The present results challenge the canonical description of oxygenases, the standard oxo-hydroxo tautomerism that applies to heme systems and serves as a precedent for alternative pathways for the oxida...

In the title compound C(14)H(17)N(3)O(2), the dihedral angle between the rings is 16.68 (13)°. Although the compound crystallizes in the keto form, the possibility of keto-enamine-enol-imine tautomerism is explained by a strong intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond.

nano silica-h2so4 is an efficient and mild catalysis system for the regeneration of aldehyde from aldoximes. ketoximes are converted to amides by beckmann rearrangement in the presence of nano silica-h2so4. the reactions are carried out in solvent-free conditions under microwave irradiation (600 w) within 50-120 sec in good yields.

the kinetics and mechanism of the reaction of 5-nitro-1h-benzo[d] imidazole to produce 6-nitro-1h-benzo[d] imidazole was studied by employing hybrid meta-density functional theory. mpwblk/6-31+g** level calculations were carried out to obtain energies and optimize the geometries of all stationary points along the pes, and determine the harmonic vibrational frequencies. two transition states (ts...

Prototropy tautomerism and E/Z-stereoisomerism of 2-iminothiazolidin-4-ones was extensively studied in the literature during the past several decades. This tautomerism was studied for both alkyl/aryl–amino/imino-substituted thiazolidinones/ thiazolinones by several authors (Comrie, 1964; Åkerblom, 1967; Chowdry et al., 2000; Mornon & Raveau, 1971; Ramsh et al., 1978) in the solid state, as well...
