In this paper, crystalline iron-nickel alloy nanostructures were successfully prepared from two cationic pyridinium derivatives as soft templates in solution. The crystal structure and micrograph of FeNi alloy nanostructures were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy, and the content was confirmed by energy-dispersive spectrometry....

A few classes of ionic liquids were synthesized and investigated for their physical properties as a function of structural variation. Bis(oxalato)borate (BOB) and bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (NTf2) ionic liquids (ILs) containing pyridinium, 4dimethylaminopyridinium (DMAP) and pyrrolidinium cations bearing alkyl, benzyl, hydroxyalkyl and alkoxy substituents, were prepared from the correspo...

A new rotaxane containing the 3-amido-phenyl-triazolium group incorporated into the interlocked structure's axle component has been prepared by a chloride anion templated clipping strategy. Proton NMR titration experiments reveal that the interlocked host displays a high degree of halide anion recognition in competitive 1 : 1 CDCl3-CD3OD solvent mixture. Chloride and bromide anions are bound st...

In the title compound, (C5H6N)[Fe(NCS)4(C5H5N)2], the Fe(III) ion is coordinated by four thio-cyanate N atoms and two pyridine N atoms in a trans arrangement, forming an FeN6 polyhedron with a slightly distorted octa-hedral geometry. Charge balance is achieved by one pyridinium cation bound to the complex anion via N-H⋯S hydrogen bonding. The asymmetric unit consists of one Fe(III) cation, four...

This paper describes an in vitro study of three potential acetylcholinesterase (AChE; EC 3.1.1.7) reactivators derived from a monoquaternary reactivator pralidoxime. Compounds used were pyridinium-2-aldoxime-4-carbamoyl-N-methyl iodide (TO231), pyridinium-2-aldoxime-4-ethoxycarbonyl-N-methyl iodide (TO237), and pyridinium-2-aldoxime-5-ethoxycarbonyl-N-methyl iodide (TO238). Pralidoxime and obid...

In the title hydrated salt, C(6)H(9)N(2)O(+)·C(14)H(9)O(3) (-)·H(2)O, the dihedral angle between the benzene rings of the 2-benzoyl-benzoate anion is 82.04 (14)°, while the angles between the aromatic ring of the pyridinium cation and each of the benzene rings of the anion are 4.42 (14) and 82.04 (14)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by N-H⋯O and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, generating a three-...

The title compound, (C(13)H(16)N(4))[ZnCl(4)], consists of a tetra-hedral [ZnCl(4)](2-) anion and a 2-{2-[4-(dimethyl-amino)-phen-yl]diazen-1-ium-1-yl}pyridinium dication. The pyridinium-N atom is syn to the azo bond which allows for the formation of an intramolecular N-H⋯N hydrogen bond. In the crystal, the cation and anion are held together by N-H⋯Cl hydrogen-bond inter-actions involving the ...

3-Phenyl(methyl)-5-alkyl-1-(pyridin-3-yl)imidazo[1,5-a]quinoxalin-4-ones (2a-f) and their N-alkyl-pyridinium salts (3a-o), including 1,n-bis{3-(3-phenylimidazo[1,5-a]quinoxalin-4(5H)-on-1-yl)pyridinium}alkane dibromides (4a-d, 5, 6) have been synthesized. It has been established that the antimicrobial properties of imidazo[1,5-a]quinoxaline derivatives are connected with the presence of various...

Values for the urinary excretion of pyridinium crosslinks of collagen, pyridinoline and deoxypyridinoline, in a group of 30 elderly women with femoral fractures associated with osteoporosis and a group of 20 women without recent fracture but with overt or suspected osteoporosis were compared with 27 control subjects matched for age. Relative to the control group, the excretion of the crosslinks...

In the title complex, (C(5)H(6)ClN(2))(C(7)H(8)NO)[CoCl(4)], the Co(II) ions are tetra-hedrally coordinated. The crystal structure is built from hydrogen-bonded centrosymmetric tetra-mers of tetra-chloridocobaltate(II) dianions and 3-amino-2-chloro-pyridinium cations, additionally strengthened by significant π-π stacking of pyridinium rings [interplanar distance 3.389 (3) Å]. The tetra-mers are...
