In the title compound, C(14)H(9)O(2)S, the benzothia-zole unit is oriented at a dihedral angle of 7.1 (1)° with respect to the benzodioxole unit. The dioxole ring adopts flattened envelope conformation with the methyl-ene C atom at the flap. The crystal packing is stabilized by π-π inter-actions [centroid-centroid distances = 3.705 (1) and 3.752 (1) Å], C-H⋯π inter-actions and a short S⋯S conta...

The title compound, C(17)H(14)N(2)O(2)S, crystallizes with two roughly planar mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit, in which the dihedral angles between the 1,3-benzodioxole-5-carbaldehyde moiety and the heterocyclic five-membered ring are 3.76 (5) and 5.33 (12)°. In each mol-ecule, a short C-H⋯S contact generates an S(5) ring. In the crystal, pairs of mol-ecules are linked by a weak C-H⋯N inter-a...

Two insect growth regulators, methoprene and a benzyl-1,3,benzodioxole (J-2931), had no detrimental effects on Dugesia tigrina under field conditions. Three other compounds, resmethrin, temephos, and cyromazine, had only minimal effects. Asexual multiplication among these planarian predators exceeded 68% when combined with Culex quinquefasciatus larvae and methoprene at different concentration ...

In the title compound, C(16)H(11)BrO(3), the mol-ecules adopt an E configuration with respect to the C=C double bond of the propenone unit. The 13 non-H atoms of the benzodioxole and propenone units are approximately coplanar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.027 Å) and the bromo-benzene ring plane forms a dihedral angle of 10.8 (1)° to this plane. The structure is layered, with the mol-ecules forming a he...

In the title compound, C(19)H(12)O(4), the dioxole ring adopts a flattened envelope conformation with the methyl-ene C at the flap [deviation = 0.104 (2) Å]. The benzene ring of the benzodioxole ring system makes a dihedral angle of 76.45 (5)° with the planar [maximum deviation = 0.016 (1) Å] 3H-benzo[f]isobenzofuran-1-one ring system. In the crystal structure, the mol-ecules are linked into C(...

A study of the reactions of ferroporphyrins, in the presence of an excess of a reducing agent, with various polyhalogenated compounds, has led to a general method of preparation of iron-carbene complexes, Fe(porphyrin) (CRR') . It has thus been possible to obtain iron complexes of the dihalogenocarbenes CC12, CBr2, CF2, CFBr and CFC1, which are thermally stable (up to 100°C) and not dissociated...
