Pyrrole and pyrroldine heterocycles are ubiquitous structural features in natural products. Nature’s biosynthetic machinery often synthesizes the pyrrole functionality in these molecules from a saturated pyrrolidine as part of its metabolic degradation pathway. Interestingly, the chemical synthesis of substituted pyrroles is usually more straightforward in comparison to that of the correspondin...

Pyrroles are important compounds present in biological systems, used for drug synthesis and material chemistry. A typical strategy the pyrrolic ring formation is centered on Paal–Knorr reaction, where 1,4-dicarbonyl react with amines giving N-substituted pyrrole derivatives. Often, main problem of this approach availability appropriate carbonyl compounds. Here, we report a sustainable carboxyli...

We have prepared first calix[4]pyrrole containing unprotected carbohydrate moiety directly linked to meso-position of oligopyrrole by stable "C-glycosidic" bond. Basic examination of its superassembly capability is presented.

Bilin Conformation, Phycocyanin, Phycoerythrin, Phytochrome Ramachandran-type calculations are performed for conformations of bilin chromophores pres­ ent in the biliproteins phycocyanin, phycoerythrin and phytochrome. The atomic coordinates are taken from x-ray data of crystalline model compounds, namely biliverdin for pyrrole rings B, C, D and substituted succinimides for the hydrogenated rin...

gepirone, ipsapirone, tandospirone and others) are 1arylpiperazine derivatives with a high affinity to the 5HT1A receptor (1-3). Therefore, they are widely used in the treatment of psychotic and neurotic disorders. This paper is a continuation of our research in the field of 4aryl/heteroaryl piperazinylalkyl derivatives (4, 5) of 1(1H-pyrrole-1-ylmethyl)-10-oxa-azatricyclo[5.2.1.0] dec-8-ene-3,...

Imidazole is a planar, five membered heteroaromatic molecule with pyrrole type and pyridine type annular nitrogens. Several approaches are available of imidazoles from alpha halo ketones, aminonitrile, aldehyde ect. Reactivity of imidazole and benzimidazole is referred from sets of  resonance structure in which the dipolar contributors have finite importance. Imidazoles among the principal grou...

We explore a new approach to organic ferroelectric diodes using a benzene-tricarboxamide (BTA) core connected with C10 alkyl chains to pyrrole groups, which can be polymerized to provide a semiconducting ferroelectric material. The compound possesses a columnar hexagonal liquid crystalline (LC) phase and exhibits ferroelectric switching. At low switching frequencies, an additional process occur...

Pyrrolyl and indolyl substituted allenylidene complexes of ruthenium have been prepared from the trapping of cationic trans-[Cl(dppm)(2)Ru=C=C=C=CH(2)](+) with various pyrroles or N-methylindole. The reaction is rationalized as involving regioselective attack of the organometallic electrophile on the electron-rich heterocycle followed by proton migration to the terminal =CH(2) entity of the int...

A series of bisaryl-substituted fluorescent maleimides was synthesized via the Heck arylation. The compounds showed broad fluorescence emission bands in the visible region, a large Stokes shift in polar solvents and emission quantum yields varying from 0.04 to 0.71, depending on the structure and solvent medium. The difference in dipole moments of ground and excited electronic states of about 1...
