3-Methyl-5-chloro-1-phenylpyrazol and its derivatives were prepared by the reaction with 3methyl -1-phenylpyrazol-5-one, phosphorous oxytrichloride and N-N dimethyl aniline respectively using catalyst. These compounds were further treated with alcohols and sodium hydroxide to form ether linkage. Ethyl acetoacetate reacted with phenylhydrazine at reflux temprature to give 3-methyl-1phenylpyrazol...

We review crown ether-facilitated nucleophilic reactions using metal salts, presenting the studies kinetic measurements and quantum chemical methods. focus on mechanistic features, specifically contact ion-pair (CIP) mechanism of salts for processes promoted by ethers derivatives. Experimental verification CIP form salt CsF complexed with [18-Crown-6] H-NMR spectroscopy is described. The use ch...

Eleven commercially available alcohol and ethylene glycol derivatives were tested for their toxicity toward a problem organism in jet fuel, Cladosporium resinae. In the presence of glucose, 20% (vol/vol) ethylene glycol monomethyl ether prevented spore germination and mycelial growth, and 10% (vol/vol) 2-ethoxybutanol, 10% 2-isopropoxyethanol, 10% 3-methoxybutanol, 5% 2-butyloxyethanol, 5% ethy...

We describe a synthetic sequence that allows for the preparation of optically active trans-1,2-diol monosilyl ether derivatives from ketones, providing a new means for retrosynthetic simplification of differentiated diol and polyol targets. The sequence involves silyl enol ether formation, Shi asymmetric epoxidation, and then regio- and stereospecific addition of hydride, methide, or higher alk...

Novel mono-substituted carbohydrate fatty acid (CFA) esters and ethers were investigated for their antibacterial activity against a range of pathogenic and spoilage bacteria focussing on Listeria monocytogenes. Carbohydrate derivatives with structural differences enable comparative studies on the structure/activity relationship for antimicrobial efficacy and mechanism of action. The antimicrobi...

A stereoselective synthesis of arylidene N-alkoxydiketopiperazines via oxime-ether formation and intramolecular acylation is described, followed by an acid-catalysed rearrangement-fragmentation to give novel diketopiperazine hemiaminal derivatives with useful bioactivity against certain tumour cell lines.

Nitrobenzofurazan derivatives are well known for their fluorescence, whilst crown ethers complexing capacity toward cationic species. In this study, we present the synthesis and structural characterization of a new derivative containing both nitrobenzofurazan moieties ether core. The compound was obtained from dibenzo-18-crown-6 ether, which first nitrated, reduced to corresponding amine, subse...

Water-soluble CdSe/ZnS (core-shell) semiconductor quantum dots surface-modified with tetrahexyl ether derivatives of p-sulfonatocalix[4]arene were synthesized for the optical detection of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine.

An efficient BF3·Et2O-promoted benzylation of arenes and heteroarenes with various benzyl ether derivatives has been developed. This method provided alternative access to valuable diarylmethane in good yields under mild conditions via an easy work-up procedure.
