The title compound, C(15)H(11)ClO(4), consists of a chloro-benzene ring and a phenol ring which are linked together by a 1,4-dioxo-2-oxabutane-1,4-diyl group. The dihedral angle between the chloro-benzene and phenol rings is 65.70 (11)°. In the crystal, inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into chains along [010].

In the title compound, [Cu(CH(3)CO(2))(C(12)H(11)N(2)O(4))(H(2)O)](n), the Cu(II) cation is tetra-coordinated by three carboxyl-ate O atoms from one 4-[N'-(2,4-dioxo-3-pentyl-idene)-hydrazino]-benzoate ligand and two acetate bridges, and by one water mol-ecule. The acetate bridges link adjacent Cu(II) cations, forming a chain. The crystal structure involves O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

The first metal coordination complex of a radical ligand based on the 1,2,3-dithiazolyl heterocycle is reported. 6,7-Dimethyl-1,4-dioxo-naphtho[2,3-d][1,2,3]dithiazolyl acts as a bridging ligand in the volatile trinuclear Mn(hfac)(2)-Rad-Mn(hfac)(2)-Rad-Mn(hfac)(2) complex (hfac = 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoroacetylacetonato-). The Mn(II) and radical ligand spins are coupled anti-ferromagnetically (AF...

Isolation and structural elucidation of prune constituents were performed and total 10 compounds were determined by NMR and MS analyses. A novel compound was identified to be 2-(5-hydroxymethyl-2',5'-dioxo-2',3',4',5'-tetrahydro-1'H-1,3'-bipyrrole)carbaldehyde, and 7 phenolic compounds were isolated from prunes for the first time. In addition, antioxidant activity of them was evaluated on the b...

Methyl 1-aryl-3-cinnamoyl-4,5-dioxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylates interact with 3-(arylamino)-1H-inden-1-ones to give the corresponding 1,1'-diaryl-3'-cinnamoyl-4'-hydroxy-1H-spiro[indeno[1,2-b]pyrrole-3,2'-pyrrole]-2,4,5'(1'H)-triones in good yields.
