The complexes [Cu(BmMe)]3 x 0.77C4H8O (1), [(BmMe)Ag(PPh3)] (2) and [M[kappa3-H(micro-H)B(tiaz)2](PPh3)] (M= Cu (3), Ag (4); BmMe = bis(2-mercapto-1-methylimidazolyl)borate, H2B(tiaz)2 = dihydrobis(2-mercaptothiazolyl)borate) have been prepared and characterised by X-ray crystallographic and spectroscopic methods. The presence of MH-B interactions in these species has been investigated using in...

Synthesis of bisfunctionalized unsymmetrical 2,2'-bipyridines 8 or their sulfonyl derivatives 12a,b are described. They were prepared via the Diels-Alder reaction of 1-methyl-4-pyrrolidin-1-yl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (6) with 3,3'-bis(methyl- sulfanyl)-5,5'-bi-1,2,4-triazine (1). The reaction leads to the single cycloaddition product 7 which undergoes Diels-Alder reaction with cyclic enamine...

Novel strategies for the efficient synthesis of unsymmetrical glycosyl disulfides are reported. Glycosyl disulfides are increasingly important as glycomimetics and molecular probes in glycobiology. Sialosyl disulfides are synthesised directly from the chlorosialoside Neu5Ac2Cl, proceeding via a thiol-disulfide exchange reaction between the sialosyl thiolate and symmetrical disulfides. This meth...

An efficient one pot multi component synthesis of 1, 4-Polyhydroquinoline derivatives through unsymmetrical Hantzsch reaction using lanthanum chloride heptahydrate (LaCl3.7H2O) from an aromatic aldehyde, ethyl acetoacetate, dimedone and ammonium acetate as a nitrogen precursor in ethanol at room temperature is described. In the present work we report lanthanum chloride heptahydrate remarkably n...

Insights to the subtle reactivity patterns of hydroxy-substituted carbazoles allows the precise synthesis of unsymmetrical azatrioxa[8]circulenes by the reaction of N-benzyl-2,7-di-tert-butyl-3,6-dihydroxycarbazole with two different 1,4-benzoquinones in the presence of an oxidant (chloranil) and a Lewis acid (BF3OEt2). The unique synthetic control obtained originates from the selectivity obtai...

Herein we report the synthesis of unsymmetrical meso-aryl substituted porphyrins, using NaY zeolite as an inorganic acid catalyst. A comparative study between this method and the several synthetic strategies available in the literature was carried out. Our method presented a better, more cost-efficient rationale and displayed a significantly lower environmental impact. Furthermore, it was possi...

Two new 1-D Cd(II) complexes, {[Cd(imb)(μ2-Cl)Cl]·CH3OH}n (1) and {[Cd(imb)(μ2Cl)Cl]·DMF}n (2), have been synthesized by the reactions of the unsymmetrical ligand 2-(1Himidazol-1-yl-methyl)-1H-benzimidazole (imb) with CdCl2·2.5H2O in methanol or methanol/DMF solution at room temperature, and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Complex 1 displays a ladder-shaped chain...

Unsymmetrical (N,C,E)-type pincer ligand precursors [ and : E = S/Se] with an indole core were synthesized for the first time by the condensation of 1-(2-phenylsulfanyl/selenylethyl)-1H-indole-3-carbaldehyde with benzyl amine. The synthetic protocols are easy and give good yields (>85%). and on reaction with sodium tetrachloropalladate(ii) in the presence of CH3COONa result in complexes [Pd(/-H...

In this paper, adaptive NN control is proposed for bilateral teleoperation system with dynamic uncertainties, unknown external disturbances, and unsymmetrical stochastic delays in communication channel to achieve transparency and robust stability. Compared with previous passivity-based teleoperation framework, the communication delays are unsymmetrical and stochastic. By partial feedback linear...

A one-pot, tandem process has been developed for the synthesis of a library of tetrazoles from aryl isothiocyanates. Condensation of aryl isothiocyanates with ammonia, and aryl amines (R-NH(2)) provided mono, 1,3-disubstituted symmetrical and unsymmetrical thioureas, which on desulfurization with molecular iodine (I(2)) led to formation of the corresponding heterocumulene (cyanamides or carbodi...
