A series of 1,3,5-triaryl-2-pyrazolines was synthesized by dissolving the corresponding 4-alkoxychalcones in glacial acetic acid containing a few drops of concentrated hydrochloric acid. This step was followed by the addition of (3,4-dimethylphenyl) hydrazaine hydrochloride. Finally the target compounds were precipitated by pouring the reaction mixture onto crushed ice. The structures of the sy...

A molecular mechanics force field has been developed which accurately reproduces experimental solid state structures and conformer interconversion barriers for a series of sterically congested diaryl and triaryl phosphines and some of their chalcogenide and Cr(CO)5 derivatives.

In order to build quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models for virtual screening of novel cannabinoid CB2 ligands and hit ranking selections, a new QSAR algorithm has been developed for the cannabinoid ligands, triaryl bis-sulfones, using a combined molecular morphological and pharmacophoric search approach. Both pharmacophore features and shape complementarity were considered...

The synthesis, structure, and reactions of (acylimino)triaryl-lambda(5)-bismuthanes and a comparative study of the structure and reactivity of a series of (acylimino)pnictoranes are reported. Treatment of ortho-substituted triarylbismuth dichlorides 1 (Ar(3)BiCl(2); Ar = 2-MeC(6)H(4), 2-MeOC(6)H(4), 2,4,6-Me(3)C(6)H(2)) with amides 2 (H(2)NCOR; R = CF(3), CCl(3), 3,5-(CF(3))(2)C(6)H(3)) in the ...

An efficient and green procedure for the synthesis of 2, 4, 6-triaryl-1H-imidazole in polyethylene glycol under microwave irradiation in excellent yield has been developed. Polyethylene glycol is non toxic, reusable, inexpensive and easily available.

Triaryl-phosphines and -phosphites bearing fluorous ponytails give high rates, good linear selectivity and good retention of catalyst in the fluorous phase during hydroformylation of alkenes in fluorous solvents.

We have explored the isoelectronic replacement of the C═C double bond found at the core of many nonsteroidal estrogen ligands with a simple Schiff base (C═N). Di- and triaryl-substituted imine derivatives were conveniently prepared by the condensation of benzophenones with various anilines without the need for phenolic hydroxy protection. Most of these imines demonstrated high affinity for the ...
