Fluorogenic molecules are important tools for advanced biochemical and biological experiments. The extant collection of fluorogenic probes is incomplete, however, leaving regions of the electromagnetic spectrum unutilized. Here, we synthesize green-excited fluorescent and fluorogenic analogues of the classic fluorescein and rhodamine 110 fluorophores by replacement of the xanthene oxygen with a...

The title compound, C(33)H(34)N(4)O(2)S·CH(3)OH, was prepared as a spiro-lactam ring formation of rhodamine 6 G dye for comparison with a ring-opened form. The xanthene and spiro-lactam rings are approximately planar [r.m.s. deviations from planarity = 0.122 (3) and 0.072 (6) Å, respectively]. The dihedral angles formed by the spiro-lactam and thio-phene rings with the xanthene ring system are ...

In the title compound, C25H29FO4, each cyclo-hexenone ring has an envelope conformation with the dimethyl-substituted atom as the flap. The hy-droxy and carbonyl groups form two intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, as is typical for xanthene derivatives. In the crystal, very weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link mol-ecules into dimers.

The stabilized conformation of the title compound, C(36)H(25)NO(3), 4-(9-anthryl)-1-(2-methoxyphenyl)-spiro[azetid-in-3,9'-xanthen]-2-one, may be compared with that of the isomeric compound 4-(9-anthr-yl)-1-(4-methoxy-phen-yl)spiro-[azetidin-3,9'-xanthen]-2-one. In the title isomer, the meth-oxy group is slightly twisted out of the plane of the attached benzene ring, with a C-O-C-C torsion angl...

Two simple protocols for the synthesis of tetrahydrobenzo[a]xanthenes-11-ones using nano silica phosphoric acid are reported. Short reaction times, high yields, reusability of catalyst and easy workup are some advantages of these protocols.

Foliar fungal endophytes of Pinus strobus (eastern white pine) were collected from different sites across south-eastern New Brunswick, Canada and screened for the production of bioactive metabolites. From one site, two fungal isolates representing a formerly unknown genus and species within the family Massarinaceae (Pleosporales, Dothideomycetes, Ascomycota) were resolved by phylogenetic analys...

a convenient and efficient procedure for the synthesis of 14-aryl or alkyl-14h-dibenzo[a,j]xanthenes by condensation of 2-naphthol and aldehydes in the presence of methylimidazolium hydrogensulfate, as a brönsted acidic ionic liquid ([hmim]hso4), is described. both aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes reactedeasily to afford the corresponding 14-aryl or alkyl-14h-dibenzo[a,j]xanthenes in good yield...
