2,4,6-Tris(4-iodophenyl)-1,3,5-trimethylbenzene was synthesized from 2,4,6-triphenyl-1,3,5-trimethylbenzene, using [bis(trifluoroacetoxy)iodo]benzene as the iodinating agent. The title compound was characterized by means of NMR, IR, and mass spectrom...

The title compound was obtained in high yield (84%) via the deacetylation of 3-(3,3-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)allylidene)-1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoro-2,4-pentanedione with K2CO3 in refluxing methanol. This previously unreported compound has been fully character...

3′,5′-O-Bis(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-8-fluoro-N-2-isobutyryl-2′-deoxyguanosine was synthesized from 3′,5′-O-bis(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-N-2-isobutyryl-2′-deoxyguanosine by the treatment with N-fluorobenzenesulfoni...

The first report of an iminoquinone of imidazo[4,5-f]benzimidazole is described. The 2D-NOESY spectrum of 1,2,3,4,8,9,10,11-octahydropyrido[1,2-a]pyrido[1’,2’:1,2]imidazo[4,5-f]benzimidazol-6-amine was used to confirm the location of the...

The title compound was obtained in moderate yield by a new and unexpected base-induced ring contraction from a 1,4-thiazine precursor. Its X-ray structure showing hydrogen bonded dimers was compared with those of other crystallographically characteri...

4-(2-Bromovinyl)benzocyclobutene was prepared via a five stage synthesis starting from benzocyclobutene in an overall 30% yield. 4-(2-Bromovinyl)benzocyclobutene has a potential applications in synthesis of monomers for dielectric materials.

(E)-1-(4-Ethoxycarbonylphenyl)-5-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-3-(3,4-dimethoxystyryl)-2-pyrazoline was synthesized via the cyclization reaction between the monocarbonyl curcuminoid (2E,6E)-2,6-bis(3,4-dimethoxybenzylidene)acetone and ethyl hydrazinobenzoate...

1-Phenyl-8-[[4-(pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxalin-4-yl)phenyl]methyl]-1,3,8-triazaspiro[4.5]decan-4-one has been successfully synthesized via a multi-step pathway starting from 2-nitroaniline. Structure characterization of this original pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxal...

A new propylcholesterol-type steroid, namely (22E,24S)-24-propylcholest-5en-3α-acetate (1), has been isolated from the stembark of Aglaia angustifolia (Miq.). The structure of 1 was determined on the basis of spectroscopic data including 1D- an...
