in this paper, 4,4ʹ-bipyridinium dichloride  supported sba-15 (sba@bipy2+ 2cl-) was used for the synthesis of dihydropyrimidinones. the synthesized catalyst was characterized by ft-ir spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (sem), transmission electron microscopy (tem) and thermogravimetric analysis (tga). this nanocomposite was shown to be an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the synthes...

Upregulation of Ca(2+)-permeable AMPA receptors (CP-AMPARs) in the dorsal horn (DH) neurons of the spinal cord has been causally linked to the maintenance of persistent inflammatory pain. Therefore, inhibition of CP-AMPARs could potentially alleviate an, otherwise, poorly treatable chronic pain. However, a loss of CP-AMPARs could produce considerable side effects because of the crucial role of ...

The solvation and rotational relaxation dynamics of coumarin 153 have been investigated in a dicationic ionic liquid (IL), 1,6-bis-(3-methylimidazolium-1-yl)hexane bis-(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)amide ([C6(MIm)2][NTf2]2), for the first time to provide a comprehensive and a quantitative understanding of the nature of the ionic fluid and its influence on the average solvation and rotational relaxat...

In the crystal of the title salt, C3H11NOP(+)·NO3 (-), dicationic inversion dimers are head-to-tail connected by a pair of strong N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The resulting graph-set descriptor of this ring system is R 2 (2)(10). The nitrate counter-anions connect the dicationic dimers via N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming two-dimensional networks in the bc plane.

A series of monocationic and dicationic ionic liquids, in which each ionic liquid is associated with dicyanamide anion, are synthesized. The molecular structures of these compounds were identified by 1H-NMR, FT-IR and CHN analysis. Thermal behaviors of these ionic liquids were also investigated by thermogravimetry (TGA). The results suggested that all new ionic liquids have reasonable thermal s...

The hydroxido-bridged dinuclear ruthenium complex 4, which is supported by Tp ligands, has been prepared from protonation of the oxido-bridged dinuclear ruthenium complex 3. Additional protonation of 4, affording the aqua-bridged dinuclear ruthenium complex 5 in situ, and subsequent treatment with NO gave rise to the dicationic dinitrosyl complex 2. These indicate completion of the NO reduction...

Reactions of the N-heterocyclic carbene derivatives of selenium(ii) dihalides, LSeX2 (X = Cl, Br; L = 1,3-dibutylbenzimidazol-2-ylidene, C15H22N2) (4b, 4b'), L'SeX2 (X = Cl, Br; L' = 1,3-di(n)propylbenzimidazol-2-ylidene, C13H18N2) (4c, 4c') and L''SeX2 (X = Cl, Br; L'' = 1,3-di(i)propylbenzimidazol-2-ylidene, C13H18N2) (4d, 4d') with iron led to the formation of dicationic diselenides, [L2Se2(...

Clostridium difficile (C. difficile) is a problematic Gram positive bacterial pathogen causing moderate to severe gastrointestinal infections. Based on a lead binaphthyl-tripeptide dicationic antimicrobial, novel mono-, di- and tri-peptidomimetic analogues targeting C. difficile were designed and synthesized incorporating one, two or three d-configured cationic amino acid residues, with a commo...

Various exchange and correlation functionals have been examined in density-functional calculations for obtaining reliable optimized structures for dicationic binuclear ruthenocenes bridged by an unsaturated compound, which has a characteristic fulvene-type structure. First, we have performed extensive calculations for ruthenocene (RuCp2) in D5h symmetry. It has been found that the Ru-Cp optimiz...
