An efficient synthesis of 1,3-diaryl-4-halo-1H-pyrazoles was achieved. The synthesis involves the [3 + 2] dipolar cycloaddition of 3-arylsydnones and 2-aryl-1,1-dihalo-1-alkenes. The process proceeds smoothly in moderate to excellent yields. 1,3-Diaryl-4-halo-1H-pyrazoles are found to be important intermediates that can easily be converted into 1,2,5-triaryl-substituted pyrazoles via Pd-catalyz...

Biologically active 4-nitro-substituted 1,3-diaryltriazene, a chemical analogue of 1,3-bis(4'-amidinophenyl)-triazene-berenil®, belongs to the novel, chemically modified class of potent antitumor agents. Its structural characterization by X-ray analysis and 1H NMR spectroscopy is performed to determine molecular overall conformation in view of its possible interaction to DNA.

Dicyanomethylene-substituted quinoidal mixed oligomer was synthesized as a new soluble organic semiconductor, and OFET devices fabricated with a spin-coated thin film of showed ambipolar FET characteristics with electron and hole mobilities of 1.6 x 10(-2) and 7.0 x 10(-3) cm(2) V(-1) s(-1), respectively.

The use of iron as a replacement for noble metals in photochemical and photophysical applications is challenging due to the typically fast deactivation short-lived catalytically active states. Recent success cyclometalated iron(III) complex utilizing bis-tridentate ligand motif inspired phenyl-1H-pyrazole bidentate ligand. Five complexes using tris(1-phenylpyrazolato-N,C2)iron(III) scaffold are...

The direct insertion of nitriles into zirconocene-1-aza-1,3-diene complexes provides an efficient, chemoselective, and controllable synthesis of N-H and N-substituted pyrroles upon acidic aqueous work-up. The outcome of the reaction (that is, the formation of N-H or N-substituted pyrroles) results from the different cyclization patterns, which depend on the relative stability and reactivity of ...

Three new iridium(iii) corrole complexes, having symmetrically and asymmetrically substituted corrole frameworks and judiciously varied axial ligands are prepared and characterized by various spectroscopic techniques including the X-ray structures of two of them. The observed phosphorescence at ambient temperature appears at much longer wavelengths than the previously reported Ir(iii) porphyrin...

pathogenic infections and inflammation are very common ailments humans suffer. upsurge of resistant pathogens has impeded the antimicrobial drug development process in recent years and the search of new antimicrobial agents is clearly evident from the literature. in line with these developments the synthesis of n-substituted aryl-2-({4-[(substituted aryl carbamoyl) methyl]-5-(pyridin-4-yl)-4h-1...

Cyclotriarsanes are rare and described herein is a scalable synthetic protocol towards aryl-substituted derivatives. Their reactivity [Cp2Ti(C2(SiMe3)2)], affording titanocene diarsene complexes, N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) discussed.

A one-pot multibond-forming process involving a thermally mediated Overman rearrangement and a ring closing metathesis reaction of allylic trichloroacetimidates bearing a 2-allyloxyaryl group has been developed for the synthesis of 5-amino-substituted 2,5-dihydro-1-benzoxepines. Chemoselective reduction and functionalization of these compounds allowed access to a range of pharmacologically acti...

Highly fluorinated epoxides were polymerized under mild conditions regioregularly, which gave easy access to isotactic polymers by using optically pure epoxides.
