The planes of the two benzene rings in the mol-ecule of the title compound, C(13)H(11)BF(2)O(3), form a dihedral angle of 76.06 (3)°; the C-O-C-C torsion angle characterizing the conformation of the central link of the mol-ecule is -79.20 (1)°. The dihydroxy-boron group is not coplanar with the benzene ring bonded to the B atom; one of the C-C-B-O torsion angles is 32.39 (2)°. One of the OH gro...

The use of polymers is finding a significant place in development of sensors. Better selectivity and rapid measurements have been achieved by replacing classical sensor materials with functions of polymers. Several receptors have been employed to detect glucose in fluorescence sensors, and these include enzymes such as glucose oxidase, glucose dehydrogenase and hexokinase/glucokinase, bacterial...

The compounds 6-(pyrrol-2-yl)-2,2'-bipyridine, 2-(pyrrol-2-yl)-1,10-phenanthroline and 2-(2-(N-methylbenz[d,e]imidazole)-6-(pyrrol-2-yl)-pyridine were synthesized by using an in situ generated boronic acid for the Suzuki coupling. Crystals of the products could be grown and exhibited interesting structures by X-ray analysis, one of them showing a chain-like network with the adjacent molecules l...

Continuous physiological monitoring of electrolytes and small molecules such as glucose, creatinine, and urea is currently unavailable but achieving such a capability would be a major milestone for personalized medicine. Optode-based nanosensors are an appealing analytical platform for designing in vivo monitoring systems. In addition to the necessary analytical performance, such nanosensors mu...

The hydrolysis of potassium organotrifluoroborate (RBF(3)K) reagents to the corresponding boronic acids (RB(OH)(2)) has been studied in the context of their application in Suzuki-Miyaura coupling. The "slow release" strategy in such SM couplings is only viable if there is an appropriate gearing of the hydrolysis rate of the RBF(3)K reagent with the rate of catalytic turnover. In such cases, the...

BACKGROUND AmpC type β-lactamases are commonly isolated from extended-spectrum Cephalosporin-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. Also, resistance appeared in bacterial species not naturally producing AmpC enzymes. Therefore, a standard test for the detection of the plasmid-mediated AmpC enzyme and new breakpoints for extended spectrum Cephalosporins are urgently necessary. OBJECTIVES To detect ...

The space group of the title compound, C7H7BO3, previously reported to be P1, is properly Cc. There is no disorder of the formyl group or in the H atoms of the B(OH)2 group. Molecules lie on approximate twofold axes and are related by approximate centers, which relate all but the formyl O atom and boronic acid H atoms. The B-O distances are 1.363 (2) and 1.370 (2) A.
