A convenient, efficient and practical procedure for the synthesis of 1-amidoalkyl 2-naphthols is described by condensation of aromatic aldehydes with amides and 2-naphthol in the presence of P2O5/SiO2 as an efficient catalyst. Moreover, in the present of this catalyst, the synthesis of 14-aryl or alkyl-14H-dibenzo[a,j]xanthenes is studied by co...

Carbamazepine (CBZ) is well known as a model active pharmaceutical ingredient used in the study of polymorphism and the generation and comparison of cocrystal forms. The pharmaceutical amide dihydrocarbamazepine (DCBZ) is a less well known material and is largely of interest here as a structural congener of CBZ. Reaction of DCBZ with strong acids results in protonation of the amide functionalit...

A highly strained non-luminescent dibenzo-acridinium cationic compound is identified that undergoes in acetonitrile light-induced ring closure to create a highly fluorescent, planar, eight-ringed cationic anti-aromatic dye.

Triptycene-based macrotricyclic host containing two dibenzo-30-crown-10 moieties could form ladder-like supramolecular poly[3]pseudorotaxanes with π-extended viologens in both high concentration solution and solid state.

Dibenzo[a,c]cyclooctatetraenes were selectively generated in good yields from the palladium-catalyzed [4+4] cyclic homocoupling of borylvinyl iodobenzene derivatives, which were prepared via the selective Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of the gem-diboryl reagents with iodo compounds.

The stress-responsive genes expressed against the exogenous addition of dibenzo-p-dioxin from the lignin-degrading basidiomycete, Phanerochaete chrysosporium, were determined utilizing a differential display reverse transcription-PCR technique. Six cDNA fragments, exhibiting a high homology with various proteins from other microorganisms, were identified via a BLAST search; that is, NADH-ubiqui...
