Ethyl 4,4''-Dibromo-5'-(butylamino)-2',6'-dinitro-[1,1':3',1''-terphenyl]-4'-carboxylate (2) which is a m-terphenyl derivative containing an hexasubstituted, highly functionalized substituted benzene core, has been synthesized.

The title compound (2) was prepared in high yield by catalytic transfer hydrogenation of the 6-nitro precursor (1), using hydrazine hydrate as the hydrogen source. Under the conditions employed, the ester groups remain unaffected. The new compound wa...

A steroid with the dimeric structure, N,N-bis(3β-acetoxypregn-5(6)-en-20-on-16α-yl)hydroxylamine was synthesized in the base catalyzed reaction of 3β-acetoxypregn-5,16-dien-20-one with O-(trimethylsilyl)hydroxylamine. The structure of the product wa...

This short note describes a one-step synthesis of the title compound from commercially available starting materials and reports its full spectroscopic characterization data.

Diphenylmethane-based compounds bearing heterocyclic recognition groups, capable to act as hydrogen bonding sites were established to be powerful receptors for carbohydrates. In this paper, we describe the synthesis of a further representative of thi...

The title compound has been prepared from 1,5-dibromonaphthalene (obtained from 1,5-diaminonaphthalene) using Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling to 4-pyridylboronic acid. The crystal and molecular structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

The title compound was prepared by the regioselective homocoupling of 10-methoxyazuleno[2,1-c]phenanthrene in the presence of ammonium persulfate. The structure of the synthesized compound was assigned on the basis of its 1H-NMR, FT-IR, and mass spe...

The title compound 6-(4-amino-1-methyl-2-(methylthio)-6-oxo-1,6-dihydro-pyrimidin-5-yl)-3,6-dimethyl-2-(methylthio)-6,7-dihydro-3H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4,5- dione was synthesized in 60% yield by a microwave-induced cyclocondensation reaction of a...

The title compound 2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-9-(3-hydroxy-1,4-dioxo-1H-dihydro-naphthalen-2-yl)-8-methoxy-3,3-dimethyl-1H-xanthen-1-one (5) was obtained by the nucleophilic addition of 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone (4) to 2H-chromene derivative 3, which was...

1,1,2,2,7,7,8,8-Octaethoxyocta-3,5-diyne has been observed as a minor product in several syntheses utilizing 3,3,4,4-tetraethoxybut-1-yne (TEB) as starting material. In order to access this highly functionalized diyne, we have developed a procedure t...
