In the title compound, C21H15BrN2O2, the 14 non-H atoms of the 4H-benzo[h]chromene fused-ring system are approximately coplanar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.129 Å). Within this system, the 4H-pyran ring adopts a flattened half-chair conformation with the methine C atom lying 0.281 (4) Å above the plane of the remaining atoms (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0446 Å). The bromo-benzene ring is almost perpendicular...

In the title compound, C20H17N3O4, the central pyran ring adopts a boat conformation with the O atom and diagonally opposite C atoms displaced by 0.1171 (1) and 0.1791 (1) Å, respectively, from the mean plane defined by the other four atoms. The coplanar atoms of the pyran ring and the meth-oxy-benzene ring are nearly perpendicular, as evidenced by the dihedral angle 87.01 (1)°. The amine H ato...

The intermediate-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channel (KCa3.1) constitutes an attractive pharmacological target for immunosuppression, fibroproliferative disorders, atherosclerosis, and stroke. However, there currently is no available crystal structure of this medically relevant channel that could be used for structure-assisted drug design. Using the Rosetta molecular modeling suite we generat...

A novel near-infrared (NIR) and colorimetric fluorescent molecular probe based on a dicyanomethylene-4H-pyran chromophore for the selective detection of glutathione in living cells has been developed. The fluorescence OFF-ON switch is triggered by cleavage of the 2,4-dinitrobenzensulfonyl (DNBS) unit by the interaction with GSH.

In this work, various 3-cyano-4-aryl-4H-pyran derivatives were prepared efficiently through a one-pot,multicomponent synthesis between aromatic aldehyde, malononitrile and acetophenone derivativesor ethyl acetoacetate using Fe3O4/EDTA magnetic nanocatalyst and ethanol as solvent. The reactionswere completed at room temperature in 10 min using 5 mg of catalyst and 2 mL of solvent to prepare1 mmo...

The three fused five- and six-membered rings in the title compound, C19H14N2O2S, are virtually coplanar, with the maximum deviation from the mean plane being 0.060 (1) Å. This benzothieno[3,2-b]pyran ring system is nearly perpendic-ular to the plane of the 4-meth-oxy-phenyl ring, forming a dihedral angle of 83.65 (5)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by pairs of N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds into ...
