The title compound, C(8)H(17)NO, crystallizes with two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. In the crystal, inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonding is observed between neighboring mol-ecules, forming continuous mol-ecular chains along the c-axis direction.

We report here a practical and metal-free synthesis of novel enantiopure amides containing the drug-like 5-nitroimidazole scaffold. The first step was a metal-free diastereoselective addition of 4-(4-(chloromethyl)phenyl)-1,2-dimethyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazole to enantiomerically pure N-tert-butanesulfinimine. Then, the N-tert-butanesulfinyl-protected amine was easily deprotected under acidic condit...

Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE), ethyl tert-butyl ether (ETBE), and isopropyl tert-butyl ether (IPTBE) have been synthesized for the first time over a non-acid ionic liquid as catalyst and dehydrator with high conversion (> 90%) and selectivity (> 90%) under mild conditions.

Thiol esters and boronic acids react to produce ketones under aerobic conditions in the presence of catalytic quantities of a CuI or CuII salt. The reaction occurs at reasonable rates between room temperature and 50 degrees C at neutral pH using thiol esters derived from bulky 2 degrees amides of thiosalicylamides such as those based on N-tert-butyl-2-mercaptobenzamide. In this mechanistically ...

The level of inositol phosphates was measured in rat hepatocytes treated with 2-methyl-1,4-naphthoquinone (menadione) or tert-butyl hydroperoxide, which cause Ca2+ mobilization from intracellular stores and an increase in cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration. Although neither agent produced any apparent changes in the resting level of inositol phosphates, pretreatment of hepatocytes with either me...

A series of lipophilic 2-substituted 5,7-di-tert-butylbenzoxazoles was prepared in average yields by the reaction of 3,5-di-tert-butyl-1,2-benzoquinone with amino acids and dipeptides bearing N-terminal glycine. Dipeptides having other N-terminal amino acids undergo oxidative deamination. 5,7-Di-tert-butylbenzoxazoles have shown activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis and some nontuberculou...

The molecules of 3-tert-butyl-5-[(4-methoxybenzyl)amino]-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole, C21H25N3O, are linked into simple C9 chains by a single C-H...N hydrogen bond. 5-[(Benzotriazol-1-ylmethyl)(4-methoxybenzyl)amino]-3-tert-butyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole, C28H30N6O, crystallizes with Z' = 2 in the space group P2(1)/c. The molecules are weakly linked into centrosymmetric tetramolecular aggregates by a comb...

Synthesis and structural characterization of a new class of pincer type bicyclic diacyloxy- and diazaselenuranes is reported. The reaction of dimethyl 2-bromo-5-tert-butylisophthalate (28) with sodium benzeneselenolate affords the corresponding monoselenide, dimethyl 5-tert-butyl-2-(phenylselanyl)isophthalate (29). Reduction of 29 with LiAlH(4) provides 5-tert-butyl-2-(phenylselanyl)-1,3-phenyl...

Metal β-tetrakis(tert-butyl)phthalocyanines are the most commonly used phthalocyanines due to their high solubility, stability, and accessibility. They are commonly used as a mixture of four regioisomers, which arise due to the tert-butyl substituent on the β-position, and to the best of our knowledge, their regioselective synthesis has yet to be reported. Herein, the C 4h -selective synthesis ...

The asymmetric unit of the title complex, [Ni(C(12)H(8)N(2))(3)][NiCl(3)(C(7)H(12)N(2)S)](2)·2CH(3)CN, consists of one anion, one-half of a cation and one acetonitrile mol-ecule. The Ni(II) atom in the [Ni(phen)(3)](2+) cation (phen is 1,10-phenanthroline) lies on an inversion centre in an octa-hedral environment, whereas in the [NiCl(3)(tm)](-) anion [tm is 1-tert-butyl-imidazole-2(3H)-thione]...
