A neutral framework cation-free hydrophobic ITQ-29 molecular sieve membrane with hydrogen selectivity was prepared on porous α-Al(2)O(3) supports by using Kryptofix 222 as organic structure directing agent through secondary growth method.

PR04.MZ 8-(4-fluoro-but-2-ynyl)-3-p-tolyl-8-aza-bicyclo[3.2.1]octane-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (1) and LBT999 8-((E)-4-fluoro-but-2-enyl)-3b-p-tolyl-8-aza-bicyclo[3.2.1]octane-2beta-carboxylic acid methyl ester (2) are selective dopamine reuptake inhibitors, derived from cocaine. Compounds 1 and 2 were labelled with fluorine-18 at their terminally fluorinated N-substituents employing micro...

The synthesis and resolution of a class of chiral organic fluorophores, axially chiral 4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacenes (Ax*-BODIPY), is described. Ax*-BODIPYs were prepared through a modular synthesis combined with a late stage Heck functionalisation. Resolution was achieved by preparative chiral HPLC. Absolute stereochemical assignment was performed by comparison of experimental EC...

An 18F-labeled pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivative, 7-(2-chlorophenylamino)-5-((2-[18F] fluoroethyoxy)methyl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carbonitrile ([18F]5), has been designed and prepared as a radio tracer candidate for tumor detection with positron emission tomography (PET). The desired product [18F]5 was synthesized by nucleophilic substitution of the corresponding tosylated precursor wit...

A highly selective copper (II) coated graphite sensor was prepared by 1,13-bis(8-quinolyl)- 1,4,7,10,13-pentaoxatridecane (kryptofix 5) as a supramolecule ionophore into plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) membrane. The best response characteristic was observed using the membrane composition of PVC = 30.0 mg, dioctyl sebacate (DOS) = 63.5 mg, palmitic acid (PA) = 3.0 mg and kryptofix 5 = 3.5 m...

In the title compound, [Hg(NCS)(2)(C(11)H(6)N(2)O)], the Hg(II) atom, lying on a twofold rotation axis, is four-coordinated in a distorted tetra-hedral geometry by an N,N'-bidentate diaza-fluoren-9-one ligand and two thio-cyanate anions. In the crystal, inter-molecular C-H⋯N and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds are effective in the stabilization of the structure.

Methyl triflate reacts with the metastable azoxymetallacyclopentene complex Cp*2Zr(N(O)NCPhCPh), generated in situ from nitrous oxide insertion into the Zr-C bond of Cp*2Zr(η2-PhCCPh) at -78 °C, to afford the salt [Cp*2Zr(N(O)N(Me)CPhCPh)][O3SCF3] (1) in 48% isolated yield. A single-crystal X-ray structure of 1 features a planar azoxymetallacycle with methyl alkylation taking place only at the ...

No-carrier-added 4-[18F]fluoro-N-[2-[1-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1 piperazinyl]ethyl-N-2-pyridinyl-benzamide (p-[18F]MPPF) was synthesized by nucleophilic substitution of the corresponding nitro compound in the presence of Kryptofix 222 and K2CO3 by microwave heating (3 min, 500 W) using a remotely controlled radiosynthesis. Baseline separation of p-[18F]MPPF from the nitro derivative was performed on ...
