The synthesis of alkyl aryl ketones using a mandelic acid dioxolanone as a synthetic equivalent (Umpolung) of the benzoyl carbanion is reported. The methodology involves alkylation of the mandelic acid dioxolanone, hydrolysis of the dioxolanone moiety in the alkylated products and oxidative decarboxylation of the resulting alpha-hydroxyacids. The last step is carried out in a catalytic aerobic ...

1,2,3-Triazol-5-ylidene copper(I) complexes (tzNHC-Cu) efficiently catalyzed the direct C-H carboxylation of benzoxazole and benzothiazole derivatives with CO(2) to give the corresponding esters in excellent yields after treatment with alkyl iodide. The tzNHC copper(I) complex, i.e., [(TPr)CuCl], worked somewhat more effectively than the corresponding imidazol-2-ylidene copper(I) complex [(IPr)...

the antibacterial activity of a series of ionic liquids containing short-chained 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium cations ([cnmim+]; n = 2, 4, 6 and 8) and bis (trifluoromethylsulfonyl) imide anion ([tf2n]) against e. coli and b. subtilis was measured, for the first time. all ils used in this work were synthesized and analyzed by fourier transform infrared (ft-ir) spectroscopy, nmr, and karl-fischer...

Alkyl imidazolines have been reportedly used in a wide range of industrial formulations with different applications. Ethoxylated alkyl imidazolines with appropriate ethoxylation degrees can be used as antioxidants and retarders in the formation of peroxides resulting from oxidation in hydrocarbon media. In this work, ethoxylated imidazolines were shown to be more effective in hydrocarbon media ...

The evolution and the current trends in a new area of chemistry of organometalloporphyrins, in metalloporphyrin chemistry are reviewed. Synthesis and properties of out of plane, di—nuclear, and "Skewered" metalloporphyrins are described. The new chemistry of metalloporphyrins was initiated by the application of Cr(CO)6, metal carbonyl in general, for insertion of Cr ion (metal ions) into por— p...

Alkyl gallates are anticipated for their use as anti-bacterial and anti-viral agents. Although their pharmacological activities depend on their alkyl chain length, no mechanism has yet been clarified. As described herein, we investigated the membrane binding properties of a series of alkyl gallates using fluorescence measurement to elucidate their different pharmacological activities. Membrane ...

background: alkyl hydroperoxide reductase (ahpc) of helicobacter pylori is considered as a diagnostic antigen. there­fore, this antigen can be used to detect h. pylori infection by stool immunoassays such as elisa. the aim of this study was to simplify the ahpc protein purification procedures. methods: for whole cell protein extraction, the bacterial cells were ruptured by octly-β-d glucopyrano...

In this study, three types of hydrophobized alkyl-modified magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) comprising direct alkylated-MNPs (A-MNPs), silica-mediated alkyl MNPs (A-SiMNPs), and arginine (Arg)-mediated (A-RMNPs) were synthesized successfully. For purpose, the co-precipitation method was used to synthesize, octadecyl trimethoxy silane (OTMS) as a functionalizing agent. Accordingly, hydrophobic moie...

A series of 1-alkyl-4-aryl-1,2,3-triazoles (1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3-triazole (1a); 1-propyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3-triazole (1b); 1-benzyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3-triazole (1c); 1-propyl-4-p-tolyl-1,2,3-triazole (1d)) have been prepared through a one-pot procedure involving in situ generation of the alkyl azide from a halide precursor followed by copper catalysed alkyne/azide cycloaddition (CuAAC) with the appr...
