Radical-radical cross coupling reactions of photoexcited 9-fluorenones have been accomplished for the first time, leading to the synthesis of 9-alkyl, pyrollidinyl and spiro-THF derivatives of 9-fluorenones. The method also reveals, for the first time, the behaviour of ketyl radicals in decarboxyaltive alkylation and ring expansion reactions.

accumulating evidence indicates that aldosterone plays a critical role in the mediation of oxidative stress and vascular damage. nadph oxidase has been recognized as a major source of oxidative stress in vasculature. however, the relation between nadph oxidase in aldosterone-mediated oxidative stress in endothelial cells remains to be ascertained. the present study aimed to investigate the rele...

Heterocyclic compounds containing β-lactum structure with different hetero atoms are found to show biological activities1. In the present work, it has been synthesized the semicarbozone and thiosemicarbozone derivatives of 3-methyl-2,6-diphenylpiperidin-4-one followed bycyclisation to get the spiro compounds. These spiro compounds. The spiro products have been characterized by C,H,M analysis, I...

the development of multicomponent reactions (mcrs) designed to produce elaborate biologically active compounds has become an important area of research in organic, combinatorial, and medicinal chemistry. a comparative study of the synthesis of new bis-spiro-oxindolo(pyrrolizidines/pyrrolidines) ring systems by the cycloaddition of azomethine ylides generated by a decarboxylative route from sarc...

We propose a spectrum-dependent mechanism for the oxidation of 2,2',7,7'-tetrakis(N,N-di-p-methoxyphenylamine)-9,9'-spirobifluorene (Spiro-OMeTAD) with bis(trifluoromethane)sulfonimide lithium salt (LiTFSI), which is commonly used in perovskite solar cells as the hole transport layer. The perovskite layer plays different roles in the Spiro-OMeTAD oxidization for various spectral ranges. The eff...

The pattern of mannosyl lipid-linked oligosaccharides synthesized by cell-free enzyme preparations from cultured fibroblasts is altered substantially when 0.2 muM UDP-glucose is added to the incubation medium. Inclusion of UDP-glucose results in the appearance of a new labeled oligosaccharide, which is 1 or 2 glycose units larger than the lipid-linked oligosaccharide synthesized in the presence...

Due to their well-defined three-dimensional geometry, spiro compounds are widely utilized in drug research. From the central tetrahedral carbon atom, besides the regular structure, an inverted spiro connectivity may be envisioned. Here we disclose the synthesis of this molecule class that we have coined quasi[1]catenanes. Next to their fascinating and aesthetic shape, the higher compactness as ...

Accumulating evidence indicates that aldosterone plays a critical role in the mediation of oxidative stress and vascular damage. NADPH oxidase has been recognized as a major source of oxidative stress in vasculature. However, the relation between NADPH oxidase in aldosterone-mediated oxidative stress in endothelial cells remains to be ascertained. The present study aimed to investigate the rel...

The low electrical conductivity of spiro-OMeTAD hole transport layers impedes further enhancements of the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of perovskite solar cells. We embedded multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) in spiro-OMeTAD (spiro-OMeTAD/MWNTs) to increase carrier mobility and conductivity. However, direct electrical contact between CH3 NH3 PbI3 and the MWNTs created pathways for undesi...

An efficient strategy for the synthesis of spiro-pyrrolopyridazines has been developed. When reacted with hydrazine monohydrate, spiro-2H-pyrroles a 1,4-diketone functionality produced novel family heterotricyclic hybrids, spiro-pyrrolopyridazines, specifically spiro{cyclohexane-1,5'-pyrrolo[3,4-d]pyridazine} systems. The condensation reaction monohydrate in refluxing 1-butanol proceeded well a...
