The mol-ecule of the title Schiff base compound, C14H14N2O2, displays an E conformation with respect the imine C=N double bond. The mol-ecule is approximately planar, with the dihedral angle formed by the planes of the pyridine and benzene rings being 5.72 (6)°. There is an intra-molecular hydrogen bond involving the phenolic H and imine N atoms.

Selective oxidation of benzylic amines to imines with atmospheric O2 is achieved in water on TiO2 under UV irradiation. The afforded imine could be easily separated and TiO2 can be recycled by filtration. To scale up, gram-scale imine products can be obtained.

The title compound, [Fe(2)Pd(C(5)H(5))(2)(C(11)H(10)NO)(2)Cl(2)], exhibits a square-planar geometry at the Pd(II) atom, which is determined by inversion-related chlorine and ferrocenyl-imine mol-ecules across a center of symmetry. The ferrocenyl-imine moieties are trans to each other.

Two macrocyclic compounds with a rhomboid molecular shape, composed of a π-conjugated framework and an imine or amine functionality, were synthesized. The amine-containing macrocycle crystallizes with step-like interaction of each molecule, forming a columnar arrangement, although dispersion of the imine gelates upon ultrasonification.

The dynamic exchange of enamines from secondary amines and enolizable aldehydes has been demonstrated in organic solvents. The enamine exchange with amines was efficiently catalyzed by Bi(OTf)3 and Sc(OTf)3 (2 mol %) and the equilibria (60 mm) could be attained within hours at room temperature. The formed dynamic covalent systems displayed high stabilities in basic environment with <2 % by-prod...

The behavior of readily synthesized and even commercially available (S)-proline derivatives, was studied in the trichlorosilane-mediated reduction of ketoimines. A small library of structurally and electronically modified chiral Lewis bases was considered; such compounds were shown to promote the enantioselective reduction of different substrates in good chemical yields. In the HSiCl3 addition ...

In the centrosymmetric dinuclear title compound, [Ag(2)(C(36)H(26)N(8))(2)](PF(6))(2)·2C(2)H(3)N, the Ag(+) ion is bound to four N atoms from two 1,2-diphenyl-N,N'-bis-(di-2-pyridyl-methyl-eneamino)ethane-1,2-diimine ligands in a distorted tetra-hedral geometry. The ligand adopts a twist conformation, coordinating two metal centers by three pyridyl N atoms and one imine N atom and spanning two ...

The β-borylation reaction of α,β-unsaturated aldehyde-derived imines, formed in situ, has been studied using a one-pot methodology, as a route to β-boryl aldehydes. The instability of the β-boryl aldehydes meant that derivatisation was required and routes to both acetal derivatives and homoallylic boronates were examined. β-Boryl acetals were also found to be unstable, however, the formation of...

2,3-Fused indoles are found in numerous natural products and drug molecules. Although several elegant methods for the synthesis of this structural motif have been reported, long reaction times and harsh conditions are sometimes required, and the yields tend to be low. Herein, we report a microwave method for straightforward access to various types of 2,3-fused indoles via AgSbF6-catalysed intra...

The title monohydrate, C(17)H(11)ClN(4)·H(2)O, features an essentially planar organic mol-ecule, as seen in the dihedral angle of 2.42 (8)° formed between the quinoline and benzene planes. The conformation about the imine bond is E, and the N-H group is oriented towards the quinoline residue. The major feature of the crystal packing is the formation of supra-molecular chains along [100], whereb...
