Treatment of dialkylbenzylsilane (1) with trityl tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate (TPFPB) in the presence of terminal or internal alkynes (3) and 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylpyridine gave the corresponding 1,2-dihydro-2-silanaphthalene derivatives (4) in 34-82% yields.

Reaction of the pro-ligand α,α,α',α'-tetra(3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxyphenyl-p-)xylene-para-tetraphenol (p-L(1)H4) with two equivalents of [NbCl5] in refluxing toluene afforded, after work-up, the complex {[NbCl3(NCMe)]2(μ-p-L(1))}·6MeCN (1·6MeCN). When the reaction was conducted in the presence of excess ethanol, the orange complex {[NbCl2(OEt)(NCMe)]2(μ-p-L(1))}·3½MeCN·0.614toluene (2·3½MeCN·...

The acid property of alkali and alkali earth cation exchanged clinoptiolites were observed by micro-calorimetry of NH(3) adsorption at 200 degrees C. The reaction rates on decomposition of tert-butyl acetate (TBA) over clinoptilolites was proportional to the acid strength. 1,4-Dihydropyridines were oxidized to corresponding Pyridines in high yields at room temperature by H(2)O(2) aqueous soluti...

In the title compound, C(36)H(44)N(2)O(2), the dihedral angles between the phthalonitrile ring and the two di-tert-butyl-benzene rings are 68.134 (8) and 70.637 (11)°. The two nitrile groups are almost coplanar with the phthalonitrile ring except for one of the N atoms which deviates from the plane by 0.125 (4) Å. One of the tert-butyl groups is disordered over two orientations, with refined oc...

Background: Tert-butyl mercaptan is one of the frequently used odorants derived from natural gases. It has been declared as a health hazard by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) in the USA. There is not much information available about the mercaptans long-term toxicity secondary to occupational exposure. This study was conducted to evaluate the oxidative stress caused by m...

The title compound, C28H40N2, was obtained from the condensation reaction of 4-tert-butyl-2,6-di-methyl-aniline and butane-2,3-dione. The mol-ecule lies on an inversion centre. The C=N bond has an E conformation. The plane of the benzene ring is almost perpendicular to the 1,4-di-aza-butadiene mean plane [dihedral angle = 89.8 (9)°].

A series of N-aryl heteroarylisopropanolamines in which an indole or a 3-arylpyrrole moiety was linked to an aryl group through an isopropanolamine linker, were designed and synthesized as potential anti-HIV-1-PR agents. Series was tested for their ability in blocking PR activity. As a rule, indole derivatives of class 1 exhibited more potency than pyrrole analogues of class 2 while tert-butyla...

the macrocyclic ligands 2,3,5,6-bis{3’-bromo-5’-tert-butyl benzo-5-phenyl benzo} 12c3 (l1), 2,3,5,6-bis{3’-bromo-5’-tert butyl-benzo-5’-phenyl-benzo}15c4 (l2), 2,3,5,6-bis{3’-bromo-5’-tert butyl-benzo-5’-phenyl-benzo}18c5 (l3) have been synthesized and their alkaline metal compounds with naclo4∙h2o and kclo4  have been prepared. chemical formulas of all compounds have been characterized by usin...
