An accurate and sensitive reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatograph-ic method for determination of sertraline in human serum is described using 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan as pre-column derivatization agent. The drug and an internal standard (azithrimycin) were extracted from serum using a mixture of diethyl ether-chloroform and subjected to the pre-column derivatization with...

The continuous flow synthesis of a range of organic solutions of N,N-dialkyl-N-chloramines is described using either a bespoke meso-scale tubular reactor with static mixers or a continuous stirred tank reactor. Both reactors promote the efficient mixing of a biphasic solution of N,N-dialkylamine in organic solvent, and aqueous sodium hypochlorite to achieve near quantitative conversions, in 72-...

The title compound, C19H17Cl3N2O3, has been prepared in a cyclo-condensation reaction between 2,3,5-tri-chloro-benzaldehye and 4-acetyl-2-methyl-1H-imidazole. The cyclo-hexenone ring adopts an envelope conformation with the C atom substituted by the tri-chloro-phenyl ring as the flap. The mutually trans ester and aryl substituents both occupy equatorial sites. In the crystal, a combination of N...

The title compound, C16H22Cl2O, was synthesized from β-himachalene (3,5,5,9-tetra-methyl-2,4a,5,6,7,8-hexa-hydro-1H-benzo-cyclo-heptene), which was isolated from the essential oil of the Atlas cedar (Cedrus Atlantica). The mol-ecule is built up from fused six- and seven-membered rings and an additional three-membered ring arising from the reaction of himachalene with di-chloro-carbene. The six-...

Sodium phosphaethynolate, Na(OCP), reacts with the bulky P-chloro-diazaphosphole yielding a phosphanyl phosphaketene, which is stable for weeks under an inert atmosphere in the solid state. This compound is best described as a tight ion pair with a remarkably long P-P bond distance (2.44 Å). In solution, this phosphaketene dimerizes under loss of CO to give 1,2,3-triphosphabicyclobutane identif...

The photosulfochlorination of n-tetradecane by sulfuryl chloride leads to a reaction mixture containing unreacted n-tetradecane, chloro n-tetradecanes and n-tetradecanesulfonyl chlorides. Direct and simultaneous GC analysis of the mixture of the sulfochlorinated and chlorinated isomers is followed by mass spectrometry identification of all the components either by electron impact (EI-MS) and by...

In lead optimization, small, enthalpically advantaged fragments have been suggested to be superior, as an entropic component will be added inevitably during late-stage optimization. Determination of thermodynamic signatures of weak-binding fragments is essential to support the decision-making process, to decide which fragment to take to further optimization. High-resolution crystal structures o...

In the title compound, C10H6Cl2N2 (systematic name: 4,6-di-chloro-2-phenyl-pyrimidine), which is used commercially as the herbicide safener, fenclorim, the dihedral angle between the di-chloro-pyrimidyl and phenyl rings is 9.45 (10)°. In the crystal, C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds link adjacent mol-ecules, forming chains along the c-axis direction. In addition, weak inter-molecular C-Cl⋯π [3.6185 (10) Å]...

The title compound, C10H13Cl2FN2O2S2 {systematic name: N-[(di-chloro-fluoro-methyl)-sulfanyl]-N',N'-dimethyl-N-p-tolyl-sulfamide}, is a well known fungicide. The dihedral angle between the mean plane of the di-methyl-amino group and that of the benzene ring is 32.3 (3)°. One Cl atom and one F atom of the di-chloro-fluoro-methyl-thio group are disordered over two sets of sites with an occupancy ...
