A method for the determination or 4-methylimidazole in caramel color, based on cationic separation of the sample by capillary isotachophoresis, is described. No pretreatment of the sample is necessary and the detection limit was found to be 5 ppm.

N -tert -butyliminodiacetic acid (H2TEBIDA, compound 1) has been prepared and characterised by thermogravimetric analysis, FT-IR and NMR spectra, and X-ray crystallography (final R1 /0.04). The zwitterion H2TEBIDA 9 is intra -stabilised by a hydrogen bond, and H-bonded chains of zwitterions form supramolecular 2D bilayers with tert -Bu groups towards the external faces. Compounds [Cu(TEBIDA)(H2...

The mechanism of the coupling step in polynucleotide synthesis using 5'-4,4'-dimethoxytritylthymidine-3'-beta-cyanoethyl-N,N-diisopropylphosphoramidite as the phosphitylating agent and catalysed by the salt of saccharin and N-methylimidazole in acetonitrile has been studied by (31)P NMR. Pre- and post-equilibria between the activator salt and released diisopropylamine have been examined by (1)H...

The arylation of mono-, di- and tetra-meso-bromophenyl-substituted porphyrins with the heteroarenes containing "acidic" C-H bonds, such as benzoxazole, benzothiazole and N-methylimidazole was studied in the presence of three alternative catalytic systems: Pd(dba)2/DavePhos/Cs2CO3, Pd(PPh3)4/PivOH/K2CO3 and Pd(OAc)2/Cu(OAc)2/PPh3/K2CO3. The first catalytic system was found to be successful in th...

Two mononuclear copper(II) ibuprofenate adducts with imidazole or 2-methylimidazole and two binuclear copper(II) ibuprofenate adducts with metronidazole or caffeine have been prepared and characterized. Elemental analyses, UV-VIS, IR, EPR, and magnetic moment data for imidazole or 2-methylimidazole adducts are consistent with mononuclear square planar complexes that contain two ibuprofenato lig...

Thermal management plays an important role in electrical and electronic systems. Owing to both excellent thermal conduction insulation, boron nitride nanosheets (BNNSs) are particularly attractive as fillers polymer composites. While the properties rely on connection of BNNSs matrices significantly. Herein, absorbed with silver acetate 2-ethyl-4-methylimidazole (Ag (2E4MI) 2 Ac) complex were pr...

Sequential reaction of 2-lithio-1-methylimidazole with 9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (9-BBN) dimer and 9-Cl-9-BBN yields diboryl-N-heterocycle C4H5N2(H)(BC8H14)2 (1). Reaction of 1 with I2 results in the net substitution of chelated hydride for a singly boron-bound iodide to produce C4H5N2(I)(BC8H14)2 (2). Conversely, reaction of 1 with [Ph3C][B(C6F5)4] results in the formation of the bidentate ca...
