Granulatimide and isogranulatimide, natural products isolated from an ascidian, were found to be abrogators of the cell cycle G2-M phase checkpoint by inhibition of Checkpoint 1 kinase (Chk1). In the course of structure-activity relationship studies on granulatimide analogues, we have synthesized a series of bis-imides, in which the imidazole moiety was replaced by an imide heterocycle. Various...

This work reports the extensive molecular modelling screening of 22 hybrid hyper-cross-linked polyOAPS-imide and polyPOSS-imide networks for high thermoresistance (300 °C 400 °C). The orthoOAPS and/or PMDA precursors lead to superior resistance.

Four platinum(II) complexes bearing a boron-based PBP pincer ligand and chloride, hydride, triflate, and bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide were synthesized and structurally characterized. PBP-platinum chloride was proven to be an active catalyst for the hydrosilylation reaction using 1-decene and triethylsilane.

The reflection-absorption infrared (RAIRS) spectra of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([EMIM]Tf(2)N) are presented for liquid as well as for amorphous and crystalline solid films. The liquid and amorphous films show rather similar spectra, indicating that the film structure is similar in both cases. On the other hand, these spectra differ considerably from those of...

Synthesis ofBismaleimidei.e.bis (4-maleimidophenyl) Sulphone (B) and Michael adduct of B with 4,42 Di amino Diphenyl methane and blended with allylnadicimides i.e. bis (4allylnadicimidophenyl) methane (S) ,1,6-allylnadicimidohexane(V) , and N-allylnadic-imide(L) was carried out at 280 oC for 1hr. The cure behavior of the blend resins was measured by DSC.The thermal stability of cured resins was...

Perylene-imide derivatives are industrially important pigments that exhibit a variety of shades from red via maroon to black. In the present investigation, we have synthesized novel perylene-imide derivatives with pyridyl rings in an attempt to apply them for H2 gas sensors based upon proton acceptors. The two N atoms of the pyridyl rings which work as proton acceptors are found to remain unbon...

Ultrafast recombination observed from several perylene imide sensitizers bound to NiO appears to align with Marcus normal region behaviour; this indicates recombination to intra-bandgap states.

Imide electrolyte salts have received increasing interest in lithium–sulfur battery (LSB) research due to their oxidation capacity, thermal stability, and cycling stability. Although the ionic conductivity of imide electrolytes is moderate, a LSB with exhibits improved charge–discharge (CD) capacity Coulombic efficiency. Here, we applied an effective strategy suppress polysulfide dissolution by...
