Excited-state dynamics of two novel energetic nitrogen-rich aryl-tetrazole molecules were investigated using femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy. The internal conversion from Sn to S1 occurred in the 0.3–0.5 ps; vibrational relaxation within states transpired a 1.8–5 ps time scale and, subsequently, intersystem crossing was observed with lifetimes 7.8 and 129 ps. nitro-substituted tet...

tetrazole-containing compounds have been the subject of much recent research because of theirpotential as high energy density materials (hedms). in this work, theoretical studies on the 1htetrazolylderivatives of tetrahedrane were done at the density functional theory (dft) method withthe 6-31g(d) basis set without any symmetrical restrictions in order to find the structural andenergetically pr...

An improved procedure is described for the efficient and high-yield (76-91%) synthesis of nucleoside diphosphate sugars from the readily available nucleoside 5'-monophosphomorpholidate and sugar 1-phosphate in the presence of 1H-tetrazole. Comparative kinetic investigations by means of (31)P NMR spectroscopy with different additives (1,2,4-triazole, acetic acid, N-hydroxysuccinimide, 4-(dimethy...

Title of Dissertation: Probing the Dynamics of Ultra-Fast Condensed State Reactions in Energetic Materials Nicholas W. Piekiel, Doctor of Philosophy, 2012 Directed By: Michael R. Zachariah, Professor Department of Mechanical Engineering and Chemistry Energetic materials (EMs) are substances with a high amount of stored energy and the ability to release that energy at a rapid rate. Nanothermites...

Abstract A series of tetrazole-linked dibenzo[b,f][1,4]oxazepines is synthesized through a short sequence involving an Ugi tetrazole reaction. The intermediate undergoes potassium carbonate mediated SNAr cyclization, followed by oxidation to afford the target tricyclic heterocyclic scaffold. optimization, scope and limitations this two-step efficient methodology are investigated. 1000-member li...

Cypermethrin a widely used insecticide of Pyrethroids (type II) group, was administered in mice at two dose levels (1/10 of LD50 i.e. 2.5 mg/kg and 1/5 of LD50 i.e. 5.0 mg/kg) and pharmacodynamic interactions of insecticide were studied with centrally acting drugs viz. pentobarbital sodium, amphetamine, pentylenetetrazole, acepromazine and analgin. Cypermethrin pretreatment potentiated the acti...

An improved method of the synthesis of flavanones catalyzed by pyrrolidine and BF(3) ·Et(2) O has been developed and a lot of flavanones could be easily synthesized via this method. The asymmetric synthesis of flavanone from benzaldehyde and 5-fluoro-2-hydroxyacetophenone has been studied and flavanone with moderate enantioselectivity was obtained in one step.

In attempt to find new pharmacologically active molecules, we report here the synthesis and in vitro anti-inflammatory activity of various 1-[5-(substituted phenyl)-1-phenyl-4,5dihydro-1H-pyrazol-3-yl]-5-phenyl-1H-tetrazole (IV a-h).The anti-inflammatory activity of title compounds were examined by denaturation of proteins method. All the compounds exhibited weak to potent anti-inflammatory act...
