In the title compound, C(16)H(19)NO(2)S, the dihedral angle between the two aromatic rings is 84.78 (7)°. Weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O inter-actions stabilize the crystal structure by the formation of a 16-membered R(2) (2)(16) ring motif.

The title N-benzyl-phthalimide derivative, C16H13NO3, consists of two planar moieties, viz. the phthalimide system (r.m.s. deviation = 0.007 Å) and the phenyl ring, which make a dihedral angle of 84.7 (6)°. The meth-oxy group is almost coplanar with the phathalimide ring, as shown by the C-C-O-C torsion angle of -171.5 (2)°. In the crystal, the mol-ecules are self-assembled via non-classical C-...

In the title compound, [Eu(C(9)H(10)NS(2))(3)(C(12)H(8)N(2))], the Eu(III) atom exists in a distorted square-anti-prismatic coordination geometry. Both dithio-carbamate and the N-heterocyclic ligands function in a chelating mode.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, (C(19)H(18)N(3))(2)[Cu(2)Br(4)], contains one cation and one half-anion; there is a centre of symmetry mid-way between the two Cu atoms. In the cation, the nearly planar benzimidazole ring system is oriented at dihedral angles of 75.31 (3) and 21.39 (3)° with respect to the cyano-benzyl and allyl groups, respectively. The dihedral angle between cyano-b...

Under appropriate conditions, S-benzyl-L-cysteine4’-nitroanilide is rapidly hydrolyzed by serum cystine aminopeptidase. The enzyme may be estimated kinetically by determining the rate of liberation of 4nitroaniline. A simple automated procedure has been devised, and 50 samples of pregnancy sera can be analyzed per hour by use of the LKB 8600 Reaction Rate Analyzer. The correlation coefficient b...

Tonsil Actisil FF, which is a commercial bentonitic clay, promotes the formation of cycloveratrylene macrocycles and benzyl oligomers from the corresponding benzyl alcohols in good yields under microwave heating and infrared irradiation in the absence of solvent in both cases. The catalytic reaction is sensitive to the type of substituent on the aromatic ring. Thus, when benzyl alcohol was subs...

Environmental chamber experiments were carried out to assess the atmospheric ozone and particle matter (PM) impacts of selected representative VOCs emitted from architectural coatings. The UCR EPA environmental chamber was employed for the ozone and PM impact experiments, and most consisted of incremental reactivity experiments carried out at NO x levels of 25-30 ppb and at ambient surrogate RO...

Two polypyridyl copper(II) complexes, [Cu(phen)(phen-dione)Cl]Cl (1) and [Cu(bpy) (phen-dione)Cl]Cl (2), (where Phen =1,10-phenanthroline, bpy =2,2'-bipyridine and Phen-dione = 1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione), were used as efficient catalysts for the oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde. The effects of various parameters such as reaction temperature, reaction time, etc. were studied. The ...

Benzyl ether protected polyhydroxylated alkene compounds containing allylic alcohol, ether or ester functionality undergo a stereospecific cyclisation reaction upon treatment with TFA-acetonitrile-toluene with inversion of configuration at the allylic position and loss of a benzyl ether to give tetrahydrofurans.
