The adsorption of simple benzene derivatives composed of a benzene ring with NO2, CH3, or NH2 functional groups on a semiconducting single-wall carbon nanotube is studied using the density-functional theory within the local-density approximation. The effects of molecular relaxation in the adsorption process are obtained, as well as the adsorption energies and equilibrium distances for several m...

(diacetoxyiodo)benzene has been used as an efficient catalyst for an improved and rapid one-pot synthesis of biscoumarin derivatives in excellent yield under reflux condition using water as a environmentally benign reaction medium. this aqua mediated knoevenagel condensation of various aromatic and hetero-aromatic aldehydes with 4-hydroxycoumarin using catalytic amount of (diacetoxyiodo)benzene...

The transformations of organic molecules with F-TEDA-BF(4) (1) were investigated in the hydrophilic ionic liquid (IL) 1-butyl-3-methyl-imidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([bmim][BF(4)], 2) and the hydrophobic IL 1-butyl-3-methyl-imidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([bmim][PF(6)], 3). The range of substrates included alkyl substituted phenols 4a-c, 9, 13, 1,1-diphenylethene (15), alkyl aryl ketones 19-22...

We constructed an apparatus to measure the wavelength dispersion of the Faraday rotation in the visible region, and determined the Verdet constants of diamagnetic organic liquids, including aliphatic compounds, benzene derivatives, and naphthalene derivatives. These three groups were easily distinguished by the magnitudes of their Verdet constants. Based on the theory developed by Serber, we ...

Skeletal rearrangement of a series of substituted Dewar benzenes to biaryl products was studied with DFT methods. Excellent agreement of calculated free energies of activation with experimental kinetic data was achieved. Two different transition states were proposed to be involved in the rearrangement. The reaction path was studied both by static intrinsic reaction coordinate (IRC) calculations...

The C-H amination of benzene derivatives was achieved using DDQ as photocatalyst and BocNH2 as the amine source under aerobic conditions and visible light irradiation. Electron-deficient and electron-rich benzenes react as substrates with moderate to good product yields. The amine scope of the reaction comprises Boc-amine, carbamates, pyrazoles, sulfonimides and urea. Preliminary mechanistic in...

Mangroves are woody plants located in tropical and subtropical intertidal coastal regions. The mangrove ecosystem is becoming a hot spot for natural product discovery and bioactivity survey. Diverse mangrove actinomycetes as promising and productive sources are worth being explored and uncovered. At the time of writing, we report 73 novel compounds and 49 known compounds isolated from mangrove ...

This paper introduces an efficient single-topology variant of Thermodynamic Integration (TI) for computing relative transformation free energies in a series of molecules with respect to a single reference state. The presented TI variant that we refer to as Single-Reference TI (SR-TI) combines well-established molecular simulation methodologies into a practical computational tool. Augmented with...
