N-Substituted imide-fused corannulenes can be generated from the corresponding tetramethylfluoranthenes. Syntheses, crystal structure and electronic properties are reported. The solid state structure of the pentafluorophenyl derivative shows nearly perfect π-stacking in a convex-concave fashion and is expected to possess useful electronic properties.

The reactions of the lithio-o-carborane Li2C2B10H10 with ClCH2CH2CH2Br were studied under various conditions. While the main product is the known exo-polyhedrally cyclized 1,2(1,3-propanediyl)-o-carborane (2), the expected 3-chloropropyl-substituted carborane products 1(ClCH2CH2CH2)C2B10H11 (3) and 1,2-(ClCH2CH2CH2)2C2B10H10 (4) can be obtained in a total yield of 22%. In the presence of CuCl, ...

Monosubstituted acyclic (E)-1,3-dienes undergo efficient hydrovinylation giving (Z)-3-alkylhexa-1,4-dienes upon treatment with catalytic amounts of bidentate phosphine-CoCl(2) complexes {[P~P](CoCl(2))} and Me(3)Al in an atmosphere of ethylene. The regioselectivity of the reaction (i.e., 1,4- or 1,2-addition) depends on the nature of the ligand and temperature at which the reaction is carried o...

reaction of substituted-aniline (8) with ethyl (l-methyl-5-nitroimidazole-2- carbonyl) acetate (9) gave 4-hydroxy-2-(l-methyl-5-nitro-2-imidazolyl)- substituted-quinolines (lo), which were converted to compound 11 with phosphorus oxychloride. substituted-2-(l-methyl-5-nitro-2-imidazo1yl)-4.- methyl-(or phenyl-) quinolines (14) were prepared through the reaction of 2- acetyl-5-nitro-1-methyl-imi...

reaction of readily available 2-formyl -1-methyl-5-nitroimidazole (1) with 4-substituted-2-hydrazinothiazoles (2) afforded 2-formyl-l-methyl-5- nitroimidazole 4-substituted -2- thiazolylhydrazones (3). reaction of thiochromitn-4-one (4) with thiosemicarbazide gave thiochroman-4- one thiosemicarbazone (5). reaction of compound 5 with clc- haloaldehyde or ketones y ielded thiochroman--#-one 4-sub...

A palladium catalyzed highly regio- and stereoselective intermolecular tandem reaction of alkynes, CuCl(2) and alkenes by a sequence of chloropalladation/Heck reaction to produce chloro-substituted 1,3-dienes is achieved.

The title compound, C(25)H(19)N(3), is composed of an aryl-substituted pyrazole ring connected to an aryl-substituted isoquinoline ring system with a dihedral angle of 52.7 (1)° between the pyrazole ring and the isoquinoline ring system. The dihedral angle between the pyrazole ring and the phenyl ring attached to it is 27.4 (1)° and the dihedral angle between the isoquinoline ring system and th...

We report the synthesis of a solution-processable, dodecyloxyphenyl-substituted azafullerene monoadduct (DPC59N) and its application as electron acceptor in bulk heterojunction organic solar cells (BHJ-OSCs). Due to its relatively strong absorption of visible light, DPC59N outperforms PC60BM in respect to short circuit current (JSC) and external quantum efficiency (EQE) in blends with donor P3HT.

Eighteen hosts were inoculated with each of four races of Heterodera glycines. A discriminant function analysis of the reactions of these races to these hosts demonstrated that these races could be separated but not consistently. Then 33 H. glycines populations collected from 13 states and five obtained from Japan were tested on differential hosts. The number of variants discriminated within th...

Discribed in this article is a versatile and practical method for the synthesis of C3-perfluoroalkyl-substituted phthalides in a one-pot manner. Upon treatment of KF or triethylamine, 2-cyanobenzaldehyde reacted with (perfluoroalkyl)trimethylsilanes via nucleophilic addition and subsequent intramolecular cyclization to give perfluoroalkylphthalides in good yields.
