In the title compound, C21H19N3O5, the phthalimide and benzamidazole ring systems are linked by a propyl chain. The benzamidazole unit also carries an eth-oxy-carbonyl substit-uent. The phthalimido and benzimidazole ring systems are essentially planar, the maximum deviations from their mean planes being 0.008 (2) and 0.020 (2) Å, respectively. The two ring systems are almost orthogonal to one a...

A new approach for the synthesis of 1,4-dicarbonyl compounds is reported. Chemoselective activation of amide carbonyl functionality and subsequent umpolung via N-oxide addition generates an electrophilic enolonium species that can be coupled with a wide range of nucleophilic enolates. The method conveys broad functional group tolerance on both components, does not suffer from formation of homoc...

A new μ(4)-bpym-bridged dimer of an oxoacetao-triruthenium complex with carbonyl, [{Ru(3)O(CH(3)COO)(5)(CO)(py)}(2)(μ(4)-bpym)], was synthesized. The complex possesses two stable mixed-valence states associated with Ru(3)(III,III,II)/Ru(3)(III,II,II) and Ru(3)(III,III,III)/Ru(3)(III,III,II). The IR-spectroelectrochemistry reveals ν(CO) spectra in five oxidation states, Ru(3)(III,III,III)-Ru(3)(...

The title mol-ecule, C(24)H(29)N(3)O(6), has a nearly planar ten-atom C(3)N(3)O(4) core, on account of both N-H groups forming six-membered-ring intra-molecular hydrogen bonds to carbamate carbonyl O atoms. The absolute configuration was determined from resonant scattering of light atoms in Mo Kα radiation, agreeing with the configuration of starting materials.

The synthesis of a cyclometallated Pt(II) thiolate carbonyl complex Pt(thpy)(CO)(mts), (thpy = 2-(2'-thienyl)-pyridinate, mts = methylthiosalicylate) is reported. A combination of emission and time-resolved infrared (TRIR) techniques revealed for both Pt(thpy)(CO)(mts) and its chloride analogue Pt(thpy)(CO)Cl the predominant intra 2-(2'-thienyl)-pyridinate 3pi pi* character of the lowest electr...

In the mol-ecular structure of the title compound, C(12)H(9)BrO(2), the methoxy-carbonyl group is twisted by a dihedral angle of 29.8 (3)°with respect to the naphthalene ring system. An overlapped arrangement is observed between parallel naphthalene ring systems of adjacent mol-ecules, and the face-to-face distance of 3.590 (9) Å suggests there is π-π stacking in the crystal structure.

The non-H atoms in the title compound, C(14)H(19)NO(3), lie on a mirror plane. The amide O and ester carbonyl O atoms are trans to each other. Furthermore, the C=O and O-CH(2) bonds of the ester group are syn with respect to each other. In the crystal, mol-ecules are packed into centrosymmetric dimers through inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

The title compound, C(18)H(13)FN(2)OS, is the first structural example of a [6-5] fused ring incorporating the 2,3-dihydro-4H-imidazo[5,1-b][1,3]thiazin-4-one molecular scaffold. The six-membered 2,3-dihydro-1,3-thiazin-4-one ring adopts an envelope conformation, with the S-CH(2) C atom displaced by 0.761 (2) A from the five-atom plane (all within 0.05 A of the mean plane). The imidazole ring i...

In the title compound, C(17)H(19)NO(8) [systematic name = dimethyl 4-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-(3-nitrophenyl)-6-oxocyclohexane-1,3-dicarboxylate], the cyclo-hexa-none ring exhibits a chair conformation. The meth-oxy-carbonyl groups are oriented in opposite directions with respect to the cyclo-hexa-none ring. In the crystal, O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds links the mol-ecules into chains running parallel to the...

The mol-ecule of the title compound, C24H19ClN2O2, is bent, with the dihedral angle between the terminal quinoline ring systems being 63.30 (5)°. The quinolinyl residues are connected by an almost planar prop-2-en-1-one bridge (r.m.s. deviation = 0.022 Å), with the dihedral angles between this plane and the appended quinolinyl residues being 75.86 (7) and 38.54 (7)°. The C atom of the meth-oxy ...
