In the title mol-ecule, C(39)H(45)NO(6), the two tetra-methyl-octa-hydroxanthen-1,8-dione substituents are arranged approximately parallel to each other and approximately perpendicular to the plane of the pyridine ring. The six-membered xanthene rings adopt flattened boat conformations with the O and methine C atoms deviating from the plane of the other four atoms.

An efficient solid phase strategy for the versatile functionalisation of xanthene dyes for conjugation and labelling of biomolecules is presented. The low cost, high purity and excellent spectral properties of the obtained materials provide an attractive alternative for the labelling of a wide range of molecules.

In the title compound, C(28)H(32)N(4)O(3), the dihedral angle between the planes of the xanthene ring system and the spiro-lactam ring is 85.99 (3)°. Mol-ecules are linked by inter-molecular O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions.

The β-lactam ring of the title compound, C(35)H(23)NO(2), is nearly planar with a maximum deviation of 0.003 (3) Å from the mean plane. It makes dihedral angles of 17.4 (2), 85.22 (17) and 65.39 (16)°, respectively, with the phenyl, xanthene and anthracene ring systems. In the crystal structure, there are intra-molecular C-H⋯O and C-H⋯N contacts and mol-ecules are also linked by C-H⋯π inter-act...

In the title compound, C19H16BrClO4, both the fused xanthene rings and one of the cyclo-hexane rings adopt envelope conformations, while the other cyclo-hexane ring is in a chair conformation. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming infinite chains running along [10-1] incorporating R 2 (2)(16) ring motifs. In addition, C-H⋯π inter-actions and weak π-π stacking in...

In the title mol-ecule, C(36)H(25)NO(3), the β-lactam ring is essentially planar, with a dihedral angle of 3.3 (2)° between the two separate three-atom N/C/C planes. The β-lactam ring makes dihedral angles of 28.45 (14), 87.4 (1) and 51.8 (1)° with the mean planes of the benzene, xanthene and anthracene ring systems, respectively. In addition to a weak intra-molecular C-H⋯N hydrogen bond, the c...

nano-silica supported titanium tetrachloride (ticl4.sio2) was prepared and used as an acid catalyst for the 14-aryl or alkyl-14h-dibenzo[a,,j]xanthenesreaction under solvent-free conditions. compared to the classical 14-aryl or alkyl-14h-dibenzo[a,j]xanthenesreaction conditions, this method consistently has the advantage of excellent yields, mild reaction conditions, ease of workup, survival of...

The recent development of the dye laser [1] 1 has opened up an important new field of applications for organic dyes. This has led to a renewed interest in the theory of nonradiative transitions in dyes and also to the synthesis of new highly fluores cent dyes. In this article we review briefly the relations between fluor· escence and molecular structure in the most important classes of laser dy...

The reaction of 5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione with various heteroarylaldehydes afforded the corresponding heteroaryl substituted xanthene derivatives 1(a-f). The reaction proceeds via the initial Knoevenagel, subsequent Michael, and final heterocyclization reactions using 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) as a catalyst in aqueous media. The synthesized heteroaryl substituted xanthenes 1...

We present a design strategy for fluorescence probes with a high off/on activation ratio in the red wavelength region, based on a novel fluorescein analogue in which the O atom at the 10 position of the xanthene chromophore is replaced with a Si atom. To demonstrate the usefulness of this strategy, we designed and synthesized a red-fluorescent probe for β-galactosidase, and showed that it works...
