2-(4-Methoxyphenyl)pyrrolo[2,1-d]pyrido[2,3-c][1,5]thiazepin-3(2H)-one, a key intermediate in the synthesis of pyrrolopyridothiazepine derivatives, was synthesized from bis(4H-pyrrolo-3-pyridyl)disulfide and α-bromo-(4-methoxyphenyl) acetic acid ethy...

Commercially available 4-nitroimidazole can be transformed in a few simple steps into 4-aminoimidazoyl-5-carboximes, from which the respective purine mono-1-oxides may be synthesized. The N→O functionality in these products significantly changes the...

The kinetics and mechanism of the thermal decomposition reaction of cis-6-(4-fluoropheny1)-5,6-[2-(4-fluorophenyl)-propylidene]-3,3-tetramethylene-l,2,4-trioxacyclohexane (I) were investigated separately in n-hexane and in methanol solutions over the...

A variety of 1,3-dithianes and 1,3-dithiolanes are deprotected in the solid state to the corresponding parent carbonyl compounds in excellent yields using mercury(II) nitrate trihydrate in a mild, efficient and fast method.

In addition to four previously reported compounds: proximadiol (1), 5α-hydroxy-β-eudesmol (2), 1β-hydroxy-β-eudesmol (4) and 1β-hydroxy-α-eudesmol (5), two new sesquiterpenes, 5α-hydroperoxy-β-eudesmol (3) and 7α,11-dihydroxycadin-10(14)-ene (6) were...

A novel topological approach for obtaining a family of new molecular descriptors is proposed. In this connection, a vector space E (molecular vector space), whose elements are organic molecules, is defined as a “direct sum“ of different ℜi spaces. In...
