in this paper, the chemical functionalization of carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwnt-cooh) by 1,2-phenylenediamine, have been investigated. mwnt-benzimidazole is obtained through mwnt-amide reaction with pocl3 after 72h, which is confirmed by ft-ir, sem, tga, and elemental analysis. these functionalizations have been chosen due to –nh2 and nhco active sites in mwnt-amide for future...

Tertiary fatty amide, namely N,N-dibutylundecenamide (DBUA), has been synthesized and evaluated as potential plasticizer for polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Homogeneous PVC/DBUA composite films containing 20, 30 40 wt% of DBUA were prepared by solvent casting. Infrared analysis blends indicated molecular interactions between polar –CH–Cl group PVC carbonyl tertiary amide. According to results mechani...

The carboxylic acid-primary amide supramolecular heterosynthon is exploited for the generation of pharmaceutical co-crystals that contain two active pharmaceutical ingredients that are polymorphic in their pure forms.

The primary step of the near UV photophysics of a phenylalanine residue is investigated in one- and two-color pump-probe R2PI nanosecond experiments carried out on specific conformers of the Ac-Gly-Phe-NH2 molecule and related neutral compounds isolated in a supersonic expansion. Compared to toluene, whose ππ* state photophysics is dominated by intersystem crossing with a lifetime of ∼80 ns at ...

Amide-forming ligation reactions allow the chemical synthesis of proteins by the union of unprotected peptide segments, and enable the preparation of protein derivatives not accessible by expression or bioengineering approaches. The native chemical ligation (NCL) of thioesters and N-terminal cysteines is unquestionably the most successful approach, but is not ideal for all synthetic targets. He...

A new type of unsaturated poly ester-amide was prepared by melt polycondensation and characterized completely. Influence of heat treatment conditions and cross-linking content on mechanical and degradation properties of unsaturated polyester-amide were studied. Results suggested that the newly synthesized unsaturated poly(ester-amide) possessed good heat stabilization properties. Mechanical...

Fatty acid amides constitute a large and diverse class of lipid transmitters that includes the endogenous cannabinoid anandamide and the sleep-inducing substance oleamide. The magnitude and duration of fatty acid amide signaling are controlled by enzymatic hydrolysis in vivo. Fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) activity in mammals has been primarily attributed to a single integral membrane enzyme...

Transamidation, or the conversion of one amide to another, is a long-standing challenge in organic synthesis. Although notable progress has been made in the transamidation of primary amides, the transamidation of secondary amides has remained underdeveloped, especially when considering aliphatic substrates. Herein, we report a two-step approach to achieve the transamidation of secondary aliphat...

The synthesis and spectroscopic characterization of the glutaric acid-amide derivative, 2,4-Cl2C6H3N(H)C(=O)(CH2)3C(=O)OH (1), are described. X-ray crystal structure determination (1) shows backbone molecule to be kinked about methylene-C–N(amide) bond as seen in C(p)–N–C(m)–C(m) torsion angle ?157.0(2)°; m = methylene p phenyl. An additional twist is noted between amide phenyl groups reflected...
