Coordination-driven gelation of a benzothiadiazole-fused tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) is demonstrated. This is the first work reporting highly stable metallogels based on a donor-acceptor conjugate with such a simple structure for the construction of new low-bandgap materials with various functional properties and novel nanostructures.

In the title compound, C(30)H(34)N(4)S, each of the benzothia-diazole and fluorene fused ring systems is almost planar (r.m.s. deviations = 0.010 and 0.013 Å, respectively) and they are inclined to each other with a dihedral angle of 61.69 (3)°; the S atom is directed away from the rest of the mol-ecule. Each of the benzothiadiazole ring N atoms forms a significant intra-molecular contact, i.e....

Length controlled (μm-mm-cm) self-assembly of hexagonal faceted microtubules has been achieved using a phase-transfer solution processing approach from . The self-assembled structures exhibit both polarized light emission and multi-mode waveguide properties over large length scales. The multi-mode waveguide characteristics are analyzed using a combination of experiment and finite-difference-tim...

A series of new 3-amino-5-sulfanyl-1,2,4-triazole and 2-amino-5-sulfanyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives have been synthesized and their cytotoxicities were evaluated on a panel of human cancer cell lines (BxPC-3, H1975, SKOV-3, A875, HCT116, etc.). The best one (compound 5m) exhibited activities with IC50 values ranging from 0.04 to 23.6 µM against nine human cancer cell lines. Further biologica...

A series of 6-substituted-1,2,4-triazolo-[3,4-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazole (3a-g) and 1,3,4-oxadiazole (4a-g, 5) derivatives of isoniazid were synthesized in satisfactory yield and pharmacologically evaluated for their in vitro antimicrobial activity. All the synthesized compounds were in good agreement with elemental and spectral data. A majority of the tested compounds showed good to moderate antimic...

The first iron(ii) complex of 2,5-di-(2-pyridyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole (L), namely [Fe(II)(L)(2)(NCS)(2)], has been synthesised and studied by magnetic susceptibility measurements, Mössbauer spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. It has been found to undergo thermally-induced spin crossover featuring two well-separated, abrupt steps at T(1/2)(1) = 167 K and T(1/2)(2) = 112 K.

DNA damage associated with the trypanocidal activity of megazol [2-amino-5-(1-methyl-5-nitro-2-imidazolyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole] was shown in experiments in which DNA repair-deficient RAD51(-/-) Trypanosoma brucei mutants were found to be hypersensitive to the drug. Parasites resistant to megazol were selected and showed modest cross-resistance to other trypanocides, although neither drug efflux n...

A number of benzothiazole-2-ylsulfanyl derivatives 2(1,3-Benzothiazol-2-ylsulfanyl)alkanoylhydrazide (IA – IG) and 5-[1-(1,3-Benzothiazol-2-ylsulfanyl)alkyl]-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2(3H) thione (IIA-IIG) have been synthesised from (1,3Benzothiazol-2-ylsulfanyl)acetic acid. These compounds were synthesied and characterized from their F.T.I.R, and H-NMR spectral studies. The compound (IIA to IIG) were...
