Dicarbonyl sugars were separated by capillary electrophoresis as o-phenylenediamine derivatives (quinoxalines). Tetrabutylammonium bromide was used as a modifier; n-arabino-2-hexosulose (n-glucosone), D-lyxo-2-hexostdose (D-gdaCtOSOnC), 7-deoxy-L-galacto-2-hexosulose and 5-hydroxy-2,3dioxohexanal served as standards. The separation procedure was optimized with respect to pH, buffer and solute c...

A novel iron(III) complex [Fe(SF)](ClO(4))(3).2H(2)O; in which SF = N,N(0)-bis{5-[(triphenylphosphonium chloride)-methyl] salicylidene}-o-phenylenediamine) has been synthesized and characterized using different physicochemical methods. The binding of this complex with calf thymus (CT) DNA was investigated by circular dichroism, absorption studies, emission spectroscopy, voltammetric studies, an...

We examined complexes between cucurbit[6]uril and each of ortho-, meta-, and para-phenylenediamine using computational methods, Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry, and ion mobility spectrometry. These fundamental gas phase studies show that the lowest energy binding sites for ortho- and meta-phenylenediamine are on the exterior of cucurbit[6]uril, whereas para-phenylene...

A series of heterocyclic acene diimides were synthesized effectively based on the condensation of o-phenylenediamine, 1,2-benzenedithiol, and 2-aminothiophenol with 2,3,6,7-tetrabromo-1,4,5,8-naphthalene tetracarboxylic diimide. The diimides exhibit interesting optical and electrical properties with one of them showing a hole mobility up to 0.02 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1).

2-Methylpyridinium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([2-MPyH]OTf) catalyzed synthesis of 1,5benzodiazepine and quinoxaline derivatives in the reaction of between o-phenylenediamine and ketone (synthesis of 1,5-benzodiazepine derivatives) or 1,2-diketone (synthesis of quinoxaline derivatives) in high yields and short time reaction. The catalyst can be separated from the products by a change in the solv...

Herein, we synthesized 2,3-diaminophenazine (DAP) from o-phenylenediamine (OP) using fungal laccase as a biocatalyst. The conversion ratio of OP monomer was 85% and the yield of the final purified product, DAP, was 63%. The structure of the main product, DAP, was confirmed by using several spectroscopy techniques (UV-VIS, IR, 2DNMR, and MS).
