A series of (5-nitrofuran-2-yl)-1, 3, 4-thiadiazole-2-yl derivatives 6a–6e have been synthesized and screened for in vitro anti-leishmanial activity against the promastigote form of L. major. The structure of Schiff bases were confirmed by 1H NMR, IR. Screening results indicate that all of the designed and synthesized final compounds (6a-6e) significantly reduced the viability of promastigotes ...

Reactions of a pincer ligand 2-(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-6-(1H-pyrazol-3-yl)pyridine (pzpypzH) with Cu(NO3)2, Cu(ClO4)2, CuSO4, CuCl2 or CuI produced three dinuclear Cu(ii) complexes [{Cu(NO3)}(μ-pzpypz)]2 (1), [{Cu(ClO4)}(μ-pzpypz)]2 (2), [Cu2(μ-SO4)(μ-pzpypz)2]·2MeOH (3·2MeOH), one mononuclear Cu(ii) complex [CuCl2(pzpypzH)] (4) and one trinuclear Cu(i)/Cu(ii) complex [(ICu)(μ-I)2Cu2(μ-pzpypz)2] (5),...

A new avenue for making porous frameworks has been developed by borrowing an idea from molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs). In lieu of the small molecules commonly used as templates in MIPs, soft metal components, such as CuI, are used to orient the molecular linker and to leverage the formation of the network. Specifically, a linear dicarboxylate linker with thioether side groups reacted sim...

It is shown that the M2(DPhIP)4 molecules (M = Cr, Mo; HDPhIP = 2,6-di(phenylimino)piperidine) can each capture two CuI atoms to form molecules with linear Cu...M[symbol: see text] M...Cu chains. In these chains the CuI atoms have only weak interactions with the M atoms (Cr...Cu = 2.628 A; Mo...Cu = 2.615 A) even though their introduction causes marked decreases in the M[symbol: see text]M dist...

Social networking services (SNS) provide innovative online platforms for social interactions and communications. In order to understand users’ continuance intention of using SNS, we first propose a comprehensive research model based on the expectation-confirmation model (ECM) of IS continuance. Our model examines direct and indirect factors affecting users’ continuance intention of SNS usage. W...

Fabrication of a monocrystalline silicon based heterojunction film at room-temperature in a time-efficient manner is desirable for energy and environmental considerations. In this report, a gas-solid phase direct elemental reaction (DER) route to realize this aim by firstly depositing an elemental copper layer on a monocrystalline silicon surface followed by a reaction with iodine vapor is desc...

An efficient method for palladium-catalyzed homocoupling reaction of terminal alkynes in the synthesis of symmetric diynes is presented. The results showed that both Pd(OAc)(2) and CuI played crucial roles in the reaction. In the presence of 2 mol % Pd(OAc)(2), 2 mol % CuI, 3 equiv of Dabco, and air, homocoupling of various terminal alkynes afforded the corresponding symmetrical diynes in moder...

The mononuclear complex [Cu(L)(CH3CN)(PPh3)]ClO4, (1), (L= 2,5-diphenyl-3,4-bis(2-pyridyl)cyclopenta-2,4-dien-1-one), has been synthesized and investigated by elemental analysis, IR, 1H NMR, UV-Vis spectroscopic methods and X-ray diffraction. The complex crystallizes in the non-centrosymmetric space group P212121 in accord with the asymmetric (atropisomer) Cu centre. Its coordination polyhedron...
