The title compound, C(35)H(35)ClN(4)O(3), resulted from a spiro-lactam ring closure of rhodamine B dye. The xanthene ring system is approximately planar [r.m.s. deviation = 0.050 (9) Å for the xanthene ring]. The dihedral angles formed by the spiro-lactam and 5-chloro-2-hy-droxy-benzene rings with the xanthene ring system are 87.9 (7) and 79.1 (7)°, respectively.

We show that FRET between Pacific Blue (PB) and Alexa488 (A488) covalently attached to a DNA scaffold can be reversibly controlled by photochromic switching of a spiropyran derivative. With the spiropyran in the closed spiro isomeric form, FRET occurs freely between PB and A488. UV-induced isomerization to the open merocyanine form shuts down the FRET process by efficient quenching of the PB ex...

A highly selective cascade reaction that allows the direct transformation of dienallenes to spirocyclobutenes (spiro[3.4]octenes) as single isomers has been developed. The reaction involves formation of overall four C-C bonds and proceeds via a palladium-catalyzed oxidative transformation with insertion of olefin, olefin, and carbon monoxide. Under slightly different reaction conditions an addi...

In the title compound, C20H18ClN3O3, the five- and six-membered heterocycles fused through a spiro C atom are inclined to each other at an angle of 87.4 (1)°. In the tricyclic ring system, the cyclo-hexene ring adopts an envelope conformation with the spiro atom as the flap. In the crystal, two sets of N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into columns containing centrosymmetric R 2 (2)(7) r...

In the title compound, C(38)H(42)N(4)O(4)·C(2)H(6)O, prepared via a spiro-lactam ring-formation reaction in a rhodamine dye, the xanthene ring system is approximately planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0014Å) and subtends dihedral angles of 88.10 (3) and 86.92 (4)° with the spiro-lactam (r.m.s. deviations = 0.0012 Å) and benzene rings, respectively. The crystal structure consists of chains parallel t...

Abstract New spiro[cyclohexane-1,2'-thiazolo[4,5- b ]pyridine derivatives ( 3 – 23 ) were investigated. Then there is in vitro antimicrobial potency against possible organisms Staphylococcus aurous ATCC-47,077, Bacillus cereus ATCC-12228, Escherichia coli ATCC-25922, Salmonella typhi ATCC-15566, and Candida albicans ATCC-10231 tested utilizing commercially available antibiotics ampicillin as a ...

Sulfonic acid functionalized SBA-15 (SBA-Pr-SO3H) with pore size 6 nm as an efficient heterogeneous nanoporous solid acid catalyst exhibited good catalytic activity in the Biginelli-like reaction in the synthesis of spiroheterobicyclic rings with good yield and good recyclability. Spiro-pyrimidinethiones/spiro-pyrimidinones-barbituric acid derivatives were synthesized in a simple and efficient ...

The synthesis and characterization of a fluorene–spirobifluorene alternating copolymer, P(OF-SBF), are described. In the case of the spiro-segment, the two fluorene rings are orthogonally arranged and connected through a tetrahedral bonding carbon atom (the spiro center). As a consequence, the polymer chain periodically zigzags, with an angle of 90u at each spiro center. This structural feature...

Peniciadametizine A (1); a new dithiodiketopiperazine derivative possessing a unique spiro[furan-2,7'-pyrazino[1,2-b][1,2]oxazine] skeleton, together with a highly oxygenated new analogue, peniciadametizine B (2); as well as two known compounds, brasiliamide A (3); and viridicatumtoxin (4), were isolated and identified from Penicillium adametzioides AS-53, a fungus obtained from an unidentified...

Perovskite solar cells deliver high efficiencies, but are often made from high-cost bespoke chemicals, such as the archetypical hole-conductor, 2,2?,7,7?-tetrakis(N,N-di-p-methoxy-phenylamine)-9-9?-spirobifluorene (spiro-OMeTAD). Herein, new charge-transporting carbazole-based enamine molecules reported. The hole conductors do not require chemical oxidation to reach power conversion efficiencie...
