Two new polyketides: 2Z-(heptadec-12-enyl)-4-hydroxy-3,4,7,8-tetrahydro-2H-chromen-5(6H)-one (1) and 2-(heptadec-12-enyl)-5-hydroxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrochromen- 4-one (2), together with eleven known compounds: 4-hydroxy-2-[(3,4-methylenedioxy- phenyl)tridecanoyl] cyclohexane-1,3-dione (3), oleiferinone (4), 4-hydroxy-2-[(3,4- methylenedioxyphenyl)undecanoyl]cyclohexane-1,3-dione (5), 4-hydroxy-2-...

The photophysical properties of 6-phenyl-2,2'-bipyridyl platinum(ii) complexes bearing different σ-alkynyl-linked azobenzene ancillary ligands were investigated. These complexes exhibited strong, broad, structureless charge-transfer bands in the visible region, which were red-shifted when the electron-donating ability of the para substituent on the azo-acetylide ligand increased. When excited a...

The title chiral photochromic Schiff base compound, C(21)H(19)N(3)O, was synthesized from (R)-1-phenyl-ethyl-amine and the salicylaldehyde of an azobenzene derivative. The mol-ecule corresponds to the phenol-imine tautomer, the C=N and N-C bond distances being 1.279 (3) and 1.477 (3) Å, respectively. An intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond occurs. The diazenyl group adopts a trans form with an N...

The vaporization enthalpies of 1-methyl-, 1-ethyl-, 1-phenyl-, and 1-benzylimidazole, 1-methyl- and 1-phenylpyrazole, and trans-azobenzene are evaluated by correlation-gas chromatography (C-GC) using a variety of azines and diazines as standards. The vaporization enthalpies obtained by C-GC when compared to literature values are approximately 14 kJ·mol(-1) smaller for the imidazoles and 6 kJ·mo...

Ultrafast time-resolved mass spectrometry and structural dynamics experiments on trans-stilbene, cis-stilbene, and azobenzene, with excitation to high-lying electronic states, reveal a rich diversity of photochemical reaction dynamics. All processes are found to be quite unlike the well-known photochemistry on lower electronic surfaces. While in trans-stilbene, excitation at 6 eV induces a phen...

Some novel (phenyl-diazenyl)phenols 3a-g were designed and synthesized to be evaluated for their antimicrobial activity. A previously synthesized molecule, active against bacteria and fungi, was used as lead for modifications and optimization of the structure, by introduction/removal or displacement of hydroxyl groups on the azobenzene rings. The aim of this work was to evaluate the consequent ...

A greener approach one-pot reaction of (2-oxo-2-phenyl-ethyl sulfanyl)-acetic acid with chalcones in presence a base to afford an unexpected (5-Benzoyl-2-hydroxy-2,4-6-triphenyl-cyclohexyl) – phenyl-methanone product. The proceeds via sequential double Michael addition-aldol mediated three consecutive C-C bonds are formed one pot. procedure has short time, easy workup, and moderate yield produc...

The title compound, C(21)H(16)N(2)O(2), was derived from 1-(2-hydroxy-phen-yl)-3-(-methoxy-phen-yl)propane-1,3-dione. The mol-ecular structure of the title compound is stabilized by an intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond. The dihedral angle between the hydroxy-phenyl ring involved in this intra-molecular hydrogen bond and the pyrazole ring is significantly smaller [10.07 (6)°] than the dihedral...

4-nitro-4-[N-ethyl-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-amino]azobenzene acrylate (C H N O ) containing an acryloxy ' 19 20 4 4 group, first 4-nitro-4-[N-ethyl-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-amino]azobenzene was prepared by reacting 4' nitrobenzenediazonium salt with N-ethyl-N-hydroxy ethylaniline and then its acryloxyloxy derivative was synthesized in a Schoten-bauman type reaction. The characterization of the synthesized ...
