The mol-ecular structure of the title compound, C(26)H(18)N(4)O(6)S·C(2)H(6)OS, shows an E conformation of the hydrazone double bond. The presence of a methyl-ene group between the benzo[de]isoquinoline and benzene-sulfonyl moieties allows the 4-nitro-phenyl ring and the benzo[de]isoquinoline system to be parallel with respect to each other, so that the mol-ecule adopts a U-shaped spatial confo...

The kinetics and mechanism of the reaction of 5-nitro-1H-benzo[d] imidazole to produce 6-nitro-1H-benzo[d] imidazole was studied by employing hybrid meta-density functional theory. MPWBlK/6-31+G** level calculations were carried out to obtain energies and optimize the geometries of all stationary points along the PES, and determine the harmonic vibrational frequencies. Two transition states (TS...

The molecules benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) and 1-, 3-, and 6-nitrobenzo[a]pyrene (1-NBaP, 3-NBaP, 6-NBaP) are currently of significant interest due to their presence in respirable combustion exhaust particulates and their mutagenic and carcinogenic properties. Structure-function correlations as well as spectroscopic signatures for trace analysis are necessary for these benzo[a]pyrene derivatives. In th...

In both 2-amino-4,4,7,7-tetra-methyl-4,5,6,7-tetra-hydro-1,3- benzo-thia-zol-3-ium benzoate, C11H19N2S+·C7H5O2-, (I), and 2-amino-4,4,7,7-tetra-methyl-4,5,6,7-tetra-hydro-1,3-benzo-thia-zol-3-ium picrate (2,4,6-tri-nitro-phenolate), C11H19N2S+·C6H2N3O7-, (II), the cations are conformationally chiral as the six-membered rings adopt half-chair conformations, which are disordered over two sets of ...

Femtosecond time-resolved photoelectron angular distributions (PADs) are measured for the first time in the molecular frame of a dissociating molecule. Various stages of the dissociation process, NO2-->NO(C Pi)+O(P), are probed using ionization of the NO(C Pi) fragment to NO+(X Sigma(+)). The PADs evolve from forward-backward asymmetric with respect to the dissociation axis at short time delays...

The metabolism of benzo(a)pyrene has been investigated in cultured normal human bronchus, colon, duodenum, and esophagus obtained from the same patient. The highest total metabolism was found in bronchus and duodenum, while the highest mean binding level was observed in the bronchus followed, in order, by the esophagus, duodenum, and trans verse colon. A 30-fold interindividual variation in the...
