A series of four n-type semiconducting copolymers containing a 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole (BT) based acceptor annulated with 2-(1,3-dithiol-2-ylidene)malonitrile group are synthesized and their optoelectronic properties investigated.

An electroorganic reaction for the synthesis of 7-amino-2, 4-dioxo-5-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-pyrano[2, 3-d] pyrimidine-6-carbonitrile and ethyl-7-amino-2, 4-dioxo-5-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-pyrano[2, 3-d] pyrimidine-6-carboxylate derivatives are described, using an electrogenerated base of the anion of malonitrile or ethylcyanoacetate. This one-pot, three-component condensation of an a...

The title compound, C(9)H(10)N(2)S, was synthesized according to Gewald procedures by the reaction of cyclo-hexa-none with malonitrile and sulfur in the presence morpholine. The cyclo-hexane ring adopts a half-chair conformation and the thio-phene ring is essentially planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.05 Å). The crystal packing is stabilized by two inter-molecular N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, which link the...

A series of 2-amino-4-aryl-3-cyano-7- (dimethylamino)-4H-chromenes was synthesized by condensation of 3- (dimethylamino) phenol, an aromatic aldehyde and malonitrile in ethanol containing piperidine. The assignments of the structure of all synthesized compounds were based on spectral data (IR, Mass and(1)H NMR). The cytotoxic activities of the synthesized compounds against six human tumor cell ...

Two benzothiadiazole derivatives annulated with 2-(1,3-dithiol-2-ylidene)malonitrile in the 4,5-position were prepared by a one-step procedure, and investigated as end-groups non-fullerene acceptors for indoor photovoltaic applications.

an electroorganic reaction for the synthesis of 7-amino-2, 4-dioxo-5-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1h-pyrano[2, 3-d] pyrimidine-6-carbonitrile and ethyl-7-amino-2, 4-dioxo-5-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1h-pyrano[2, 3-d] pyrimidine-6-carboxylate derivatives are described, using an electrogenerated base of the anion of malonitrile or ethylcyanoacetate. this one-pot, three-component condensation of an a...

In this work, we design and synthesize a malonitrile-functionalized TPE derivative (TPE-DCV), which can react with thiol group through thiol-ene click reaction, leading to the fluorescence change of the system. Combined with the unique AIE property, TPE-DCV can selectively detect glutathione (GSH) but not cysteine or homocysteine. As the cleavage of GSSG with the aid of glutathione reductase pr...

Wells–Dawson tungsten heteropolyacid (H6P2W18O62) has been applied as an effective heterogeneous catalyst for one-pot synthesis of spiro[4H-pyran-3,3’-oxindoles] via reaction of various isatins, malonitrile and 1,3-dicarbonyl compound in water. The corresponding products were obtained in high yields. The catalysts were easily recycled and reused without loss of their catalytic activity. 

A novel porous polymeric fluorescence probe, MN-ZIF-90, has been designed and synthesized for quantitative hydrogen sulfide (H2S) fluorescent detection and highly selective amino acid recognition. This distinct crystalline structure, derived from rational design and malonitrile functionalization, can trigger significant enhancement of its fluorescent intensity when exposed to H2S or cysteine mo...

the highly substituted pyridine derivatives are found to exhibit diverse pharmacological activities. they are also emerged as potential medicinal leads in developing therapeutic agents for the treatment of various diseases. in this work, a series of 2-amino-3,5-dicarbonitrile-6-thio-pyridine derivatives have been synthesized at room temperature via one-pot, multi-component reaction of various a...
