Four Fe(III) spin-crossover (SCO) compounds, [Fe(HL1)2](HCl4TPA) (1-Cl), [Fe(HL1)2](HBr4TPA) (1-Br), [Fe(HL2)2](HCl4TPA) (2-Cl), and [Fe(HL2)2](HBr4TPA) (2-Br) (HL1 = 4-chloro-2-nitro-6-(1-(2-(pyridine-2-yl)hydrazono)ethyl)phenolate; HL2 = 4-bromo-2-nitro-6-(1-(2(pyridine-2-yl)hydrazono)ethyl)phenolate; HCl4TPA = 2,3,5,6-tetrachloro-4-carboxybenzoate; and HBr4TPA = 2,3,5,6-tetrabromo-4-carboxyb...

More Information www.agilent.com/chem/icpms Introduction Biogas is the term used to describe the mixture of methane, carbon dioxide, nitrogen and other components resulting from the anaerobic fermentation of a variety of biodegradable materials including animal waste, domestic sewage sludge and municipal landfill waste. Because of its methane content (40-75%), biogas can be used as a substitute...

With the aim of developing a new SPECT imaging agent for the noradrenaline transporter, a twelve-step stereoselective synthesis of iodinated analogues of (2S,3R)- and (2R,3S)-reboxetine has been achieved from 4-bromobenzaldehyde. The key steps involve a Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation to establish the stereogenic centres and a copper catalysed aromatic halogen exchange reaction to introduce th...

Introduction of the halogen atom or the acyl group at the C-ring of fraxinellone was investigated. Some unexpected halogenation products were obtained with the different chlorination/bromination reagents, and their possible reaction mechanisms were also proposed. Seven key steric structures of 2a', 2b, 2b', 2c', 3a, 3b, and one isomer (5'α-Cl) of 2a were further confirmed by single-crystal X-ra...

Introduction In an earlier publication (2) a comparison was made of the growth regulating activites of various compounds as indicated by the elongation of sections of Avena coleoptiles. From this comparison it was seen that the substitution of various halogen atoms in the phenoxyacetic acid (POA) structure increased its effect on elongation except when both ortho positions were occupied. Also, ...

Halogen derivatives of selected 3-benzofurancarboxylic acids were prepared using 6-acetyl-5-hydroxy-2-methyl-3-benzofuranocarboxylic acid as starting material. (1)H-NMR spectra were obtained for all of the synthesized structures, and for compound VI, an X-ray crystal structure was also obtained. All derivatives were tested for antimicrobial activity against a selection of Gram-positive cocci, G...

The aim of this study is to describe and compare the supramolecular interactions, in the solid state, of chloro-, bromo-, and iodobenzothiophene diols. The compounds were obtained through organo-catalyzed reactions starting from 3-substituted halobenzothiophene carbaldehydes. Energies of the noncovalent interactions were obtained by density functional theory calculations. Bond distances and ang...

The cathodic reduction of ω-bromomethylarylketones in aprotic organic solvents (such as propylene carbonate) containing tetraalkylammonium iodides achieved at smooth glassy carbon (GC) permits through a selective one-electron reduction, the scission of the C-Br bond. Quite unexpectedly, the free radical thus formed is prior attached to the carbon surface in its enolic form (GC-O-(Ar)C=CH2). Suc...
