nanosilica periodic acid (nano-spia) is found to be a new, powerful, and reusable heterogeneous catalyst for the rapid synthesis of 2-naphtholazo dyes via diazotization of aromatic amines and followsazo coupling with 2-naphthol under solvent-free conditions at room temperature by grinding. eco-friendly, heterogeneous reaction conditions, high stability of diazonium salt, simple experimental pro...

a convenient and efficient direct protocol for the preparation of antibacterial azo dyes by the reaction of 2-naphthol with aromatic amines in the presence of catalytic amount of n-methyl-2-pyrrolidonium hydrogen sulfate ([h-nmp]hso4) was carried out under solvent free conditions. this method has some advantages such as: easy work-up and easy separation of catalyst from the reaction mixture. th...

Phthalic, maleic and succinic anhydrides have been reacted with aromatic amines to obtain the corresponding monoacid monoamides. The latter have been each transformed into the corresponding cyclic imide derivatives by treating with SOCl2. Alternatively, anhydrides have been reacted with methanolic KOH to obtain monomethyl ester derivatives which on reaction with aromatic amines in the presence ...

[reaction: see text] The features of various anions having different soft/hard character (aliphatic and aromatic amines, alcohoxydes, phenoxides, thiolates) are compared with regard to nucleophilic substitutions on dimethyl carbonate (DMC), using different reaction conditions. Results are well in agreement with the Hard-Soft Acid-Base (HSAB) theory. Accordingly, the high selectivity of monometh...

2-Amino-1,3-benzothiazole was synthesized and schiff bases were prepared by reacting a series of aromatic aldehydes with 2-amino-1,3-benzothiazole to form a number of potentially biologically active compounds. Azo dyes of 2-amino-1,3-benzothiazole were synthesized by reacting various aromatic amines , substituted amines and phenols. The structures of 2-amino-1,3-benzothiazole, Schiff bases and ...

sulfonated polystyrene/montmorillonite nanocomposite (ommt/ps-so3h) was prepared and used as a novel, efficient and inexpensive heterogeneous acid catalyst in the one-pot reaction three-component mannich reaction of ketones, aromatic aldehydes and amines under solvent-free conditions. the catalyst was characterized by xrd, sem, tg, bet and ft-ir techniques. this method has advantages of high yi...

The study of Pesch and colleagues (1) investigated the impact of occupational exposure on bladder cancer risk and its modulation by the polymorphic N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2), based on a follow-up of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) cohort, recruited within 1991 to 2000. With regard to interpretation of the results, we have the following comments. The st...

We demonstrate for the first time a biosensor featuring a sequential two-enzyme pathway suitable to screen potentially toxic reactive metabolites generated during metabolism.

Aromatic amines are a widespread class of environmental contaminants present in various occupational settings and tobacco smoke. Exposure to aromatic amines is a major risk factor for bladder cancer development. The etiologic involvement of aromatic amines in the genesis of bladder cancer is attributable to their ability to form DNA adducts, which upon eluding repair and causing mispairing duri...
