In the title compound, C(24)H(15)BrO(2)S, the sulfinyl O atom and the phenyl group of the phenyl-sulfinyl substituent lie on opposite sides of the plane through the naphthofuran fragment. The phenyl ring is nearly perpendicular to the plane of the tricyclic naphthofuran system [81.77 (6)°] and is tilted slightly towards it. The 4-bromo-phenyl ring is rotated out of the naphthofuran plane by a d...

In the title compound, C29H19F3N2O, a phenanthroline-fused imidazole tetra-cyclic system, the fused benzene rings deviate slightly from the central ring and make dihedral angles with this ring of 3.47 (8) and 3.05 (8)°. The tri-fluoro-methyl-phenyl ring is roughly coplanar with the phenanthroline-fused imidazole tetra-cyclic system [dihedral angle = 11.02 (6)°], while the meth-oxy-phenyl ring i...

Two new photosensitizers featured with a cyanoacrylic acid electron acceptor (A) and a hybrid electron donor (D) of cyclopentadithiophene and dithiafulvenyl, either directly linked or separated by a phenyl ring, were synthesized and characterized. Both of them undergo two reversible oxidations and strongly absorb in the visible spectral region due to a photo-induced intramolecular charge-transf...

The mol-ecule of the title compound, C42H32N6O, is built up from one pyrazole ring linked to three phenyl rings and to an approximately planar [maximum deviation = 0.0455 (15) Å] quinoxaline system connected to a phenyl-benzohydrazide group. The pyrazole ring assumes an envelope conformation, the C atom attached to the quinoxalin-3-yl ring system being the flap atom. The dihedral angle between ...

The title compound, C22H16N2O2 {systematic name: 3-(4-hy-droxy-phen-yl)-2-[(E)-2-phenyl-ethen-yl]quinazolin-4(3H)-one}, consists of a substituted 2-[(E)-2-aryl-ethen-yl]-3-aryl-quinazolin-4(3H)-one skeleton. The substituents at the ethyl-ene fragment are located in trans positions. The phenyl ring is inclined to the quinazolone ring by 26.44 (19)°, while the 4-hy-droxy-phenyl ring is inclined t...

Organoboranes carrying electron-withdrawing substituents are commonly used as Lewis acidic catalysts or cocatalysts in a variety of organic processes. These Lewis acids also became popular through their application in `frustrated Lewis pairs', i.e. combinations of Lewis acids and bases that are unable to fully neutralize each other due to steric or electronic effects. We have determined the cry...

IN THE TITLE COMPOUND [SYSTEMATIC NAME: tricarbonyl(η(6)-7-methoxy-2-phenyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-1-benzopyran)chromium(0)], [Cr(C(16)H(16)O(2))(CO)(3)], the Cr(CO)(3) unit is coordinated by the phenyl-ene ring of the flavan ligand, exhibiting a three-legged piano-stool conformation, with a point to plane distance of 1.750 (1) Å. The phenyl ring is twisted away from the fused ring system by 36.49 (5)°...

     New derivatives of 2-[2-(2-Chlorophenoxy)phenyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazole as candidates for agonistic effect on benzodiazepine receptors were synthesized. Conformational analysis and superimposition of energy minima conformers of the novel compounds on estazolam, a known benzodiazepine agonist, revealed that the main proposed benzodiazepine pharmacophores were well matched. In pharmacological eval...

In the title compound, C(26)H(22)F(2)O(2), the cyclo-propane ring makes dihedral angles of 47.6 (2), 51.3 (2) and 63.9 (2)° with the 2-fluoro-substituted phenyl ring, the unsubstituted phenyl ring and the 4-fluoro-substituted phenyl ring, respectively. There is a short C-H⋯F contact in the molecule. In the crystal, weak C-H⋯F hydrogen bonds lead to chains of mol-ecules extending along the b-axi...
