The crystal structure of the title compound, [Cd(NCS)2(C6H7NO)2] n is made up of Cd(2+) cations that are coordinated by three thio-cyanate ligands and three 4-(hy-droxy-meth-yl)pyridine ligands within distorted N4OS octa-hedra. The asymmetric unit consists of one Cd(2+) cation, two thio-cyanate anions and two 4-(hy-droxy-meth-yl)pyridine ligands in general positions. Two Cd(2+) cations are link...

A series of bis(thiazolinyl)- and bis(thiazolyl)pyridine Thio-Pybox ligands and their metal complexes of chromium(III), iron(II), cobalt(II) and nickel(II) has been prepared, as well as a nickel(II) complex containing a monoanionic bis(thiazolinyl)phenyl Thio-Phebox ligand. These new metal complexes have been characterised and used as catalysts, in combination with the co-catalyst MAO, for the ...

The hepatitis delta virus (HDV) ribozyme self-cleaves in the presence of a wide range of monovalent and divalent ions. Prior theoretical studies provided evidence that self-cleavage proceeds via a concerted or stepwise pathway, with the outcome dictated by the valency of the metal ion. In the present study, we measure stereospecific thio effects at the nonbridging oxygens of the scissile phosph...

Chorismate synthase catalyzes the 1,4-elimination of phosphate and the C-(6-pro-R) hydrogen from 5-enolpyruvylshikimate 3-phosphate (EPSP) to generate chorismate. Although this reaction does not involve an overall change in redox state, the enzyme requires reduced FMN. To investigate the role of the flavin in catalysis we have employed chemically modified flavins: 1- and 5-deaza-, 2- and 4-thio...

A novel polyphosphoester (PPE) with vinyl ether side chain functionality was developed as a versatile template for postpolymerization modifications, and its degradability and biocompatibility were evaluated. An organo-catalyzed ring-opening polymerization of ethylene glycol vinyl ether-pendant cyclic phosphotriester monomer allowed for construction of poly(ethylene glycol vinyl ether phosphotri...

The title compound, C(13)H(9)N(3)OS, was prepared by the reaction of thio-phene-2-carbohydrazide and 4-formyl-benzonitrile. The dihedral angle between the benzene and thio-phene rings is 11.9 (1)°. In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are linked into centrosymmetric dimers by pairs of N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

The incorporation of the (trifluoromethyl)thio group into the benzo[e][1,2]thiazine 1,1-dioxide scaffold via a reaction of trifluoromethanesulfanylamide with 2-(2-alkynyl)benzenesulfonamide is reported. The transformation proceeds under mild conditions to afford the 4-((trifluoromethyl)thio)-2H-benzo[e][1,2]thiazine 1,1-dioxides in moderate to good yields.

In the title mol-ecular salt, C(6)H(16)N(+)·NCS(-), the cation possesses approximate local twofold rotation symmetry. One of its NH atoms forms a hydrogen bond to a thio-cyanate N atom and the other to a thio-cyanate S atom. This results in [001] chains of alternating cations and anions.

We demonstrate the first application of mechanochemistry to conduct the synthesis of sulfonyl-(thio)ureas, including known anti-diabetic drugs tolbutamide, chlorpropamide and glibenclamide, in good to excellent isolated yields by either stoichiometric base-assisted or copper-catalysed coupling of sulfonamides and iso(thio)cyanates.

In the title compound, C(14)H(13)NOS, the dihedral angle formed by the mean planes through the indane ring system and the thio-phene ring is 85.04 (11)°. The imine bond is located in the thio-phene plane [the S-C-C-N torsion angle is 0.00 (3)°] and an intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond is observed.
