In the title compound, C(12)H(12)N(2)·2C(7)H(7)NO(2), the 4-amino-benzoic acid mol-ecules are linked by O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds to 1,2-bis-(4-pyrid-yl)ethane, forming linear hydrogen bonded chains parallel to [21]. The structure exhibits a hydrogen-bonding network involving COOH⋯N(pyrid-yl) and amine and carb-oxy-lic N-H⋯ O inter-actions. In addition, π-π stacking inter-actions [centroid-centroid ...

In the crystal structure of the title 1:1 adduct, C(12)H(12)N(2)·C(8)H(9)NO(2), the 4-amino-3-methyl-benzoic acid mol-ecules and 1,2-bis-(4-pyrid-yl)ethane mol-ecules are linked by inter-molecular O-H⋯N, N-H⋯O and N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming a two-dimensional supra-molecular network parallel to (001). In the 1,2-bis-(4-pyrid-yl)ethane mol-ecule, the two pyridine rings are twisted to each othe...

A UV-responsive polymer was prepared via condensation polymerization of 2-nitrobenzyl(4-(1,2-dihydroxyethyl)phenyl)carbamate and azalaic acid dichloride. When the polymer was irradiated with UV light, the nitrobenzyl urethane protecting group was removed and the deprotected aniline underwent spontaneous 1,6-elimination reactions, resulting in degradation of the polymer. Nanoparticles with encap...

The Zn(II) atom in the title complex, [ZnCl(2)(C(8)H(12)N(4))], is coordinated by two Cl atoms and three N atoms of the N-[1-(pyrazin-2-yl)ethyl-idene]ethane-1,2-diamine ligand, and displays a distorted square-pyramidal geometry with the apical position occupied by a Cl atom. In the crystal, inter-molecular N-H⋯Cl and C-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into a three-dimensional framework.

Two tetradentate ligands 1,2-bis[2-((dimethylamino)methyl)-6-pyridyl]ethane (L1) and 1,2-bis[2-(N-piperidinomethyl)-6-pyridyl]ethane (L2) and a hexadentate ligand 1,2-bis(2-((methyl(pyridylmethyl)amino)methyl)-6-pyridyl)ethane (L3) were prepared as part of a series of new polypyridine ligands possessing a 1,2-bis(2-pyridyl)ethane common moiety. L1 and L2 form mononuclear Cu(II) complexes [Cu(L)...

Nb-doped nickel oxides with Nb contents in the range from 1 to 20% and, for comparison, pure NiO, were characterized using in situ electrical conductivity measurements in correlation with their catalytic performances for the oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of ethane into ethylene. Their electrical conductivity was studied as a function of temperature and oxygen partial pressure and was followed...

Spectroscopic detection of ethane in the 3-microm wavelength region was performed by means of a cw optical parametric oscillator and cavity leak-out. We achieved a minimum detectable absorption coefficient of 1.6 x 10(-10) cm 1/square root of Hz, corresponding to an ethane detection limit of 6 parts per trillion/square root of Hz. For 3-min integration time the detection limit was 0.5 parts per...
