The synthesis, IR spectroscopic study, and X-ray diffraction analysis (CIF file CCDC no. 1574078) are carried out for 1,3-diamino-2-hydroxypropane-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid (I). The structural units of a crystal of compound I are (H_4.5HPdta)^0.5– anions, (H_5.5HPdta)^0.5+ cations, and molecules of water of crystallization joined by a branched network of hydrogen bonds: strong intermolecular O–H…O and intramolecular N–H…O bonds.     

Directed Aminomethylation of Pyrrole,Indole, and Carbazole with <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N′</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N′</Emphasis>-Tetramethylmethanediamine

Catalytic aminomethylation of pyrrole and indole with N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylmethanediamine in the presence of 5 mol % of ZrOCl₂·8H₂O proceeds selectively at the positions 2, 5 of pyrrole and 1, 3 of indole. Carbazole under the same conditions affords 3-formyl-9-aminomethyl derivative. The reaction in the presence of 5 mol % of K₂CO₃ occurs as monoaminomethylation: for pyrrole at the position 2, for indole at the position 3, and for carbazole at the nitrogen atom of the substrate. Water-soluble 1,1′-(1H-pyrrole-2,5-diyl)bis(N,N-dimethylmethanamine) exhibits a fungistatic activity with respect to phytopathogenic fungi Rhizoctonia solani.     

Synthesis and structure of the cobalt(II) coordination compounds with <Emphasis Type="Italic">N,N</Emphasis>-dimethyl-<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>′,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>′-dimethylthiocarbamoylsulfenamide

The CoLX₂ complexes were obtained by the reaction of N,N-dimethyl-N′,N′-dimethylthio-carbamoylsulfenamide (L) with CoX₂ (X = Cl, Br, I, NCS). The complexes were investigated by elemental and X-ray analysis, IR, ¹H NMR, and electron spectroscopy, conductometry, magnetochemistry, thermogravimetry. It is found that these compounds are high-spin complexes of pseudotetraedral structure with bidentate coordination of L through the thione sulfur atom and sulfenamide nitrogen atom.     

Synthesis of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-nitro-<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>′-(trimethylsilyl)carbodiimide

Nitration of N,N′-bis(trimethylsilyl)carbodiimide with N₂O₅ or (NO₂)₂SiF₆ afforded N-nitro-N´-(trimethylsilyl)carbodiimide, the first representative of N-nitro carbodiimides. Its further nitration led to the release of CO₂, which is presumably formed in the course of N,N´-dinitrocarbodiimide decomposition. The reactions of N-nitro-N´-(trimethylsilyl)carbodiimide with nucleophiles take place both at the tri methylsilyl group (for example, with NH₃) to give nitrocyanamide salts and at the carbodiimide C atom (for example, with Et₂NH) to give the corresponding nitroguan idines.

Pseudo-Polymorphs of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>′-Bis(4-nitrophenyl)-2,6-Pyridinedicarboxamide

Three pseudo-polymorphs of N, N′-bis(4-nitrophenyl)-2,6-pyridinedicarboxamide 1 were characterized by X-ray crystallography. The C–H ⋅s O hydrogen bond was found to contribute significantly to the assembly of this host. With the variation of the guest, the host changed the molecular conformation and the supramolecular synthons. In all three cases concerned, the solvent guests were bonded through direct host-guest interaction and accommodated in the voids formed by the assembly of the host.     

Complex formation of magnesium and calcium ions with trimethylenediamine-<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>’,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>’-tetraacetic acid

Volumetric and Viscometric Studies of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>′-Bis(salicylaldehyde)-1,3-diaminopropane Schiff Base (Salpr) in Ionic Liquid + DMF solutions

The apparent molar volumes and viscosities of N,N′-bis(salicylaldehyde)-1,3-diaminopropane Schiff base (Salpr) have been determined in ionic liquid {1-pentyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide ([PnMIm]Br)} + N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) solutions at 298.15 K from density and viscosity measurements using a vibrating tube densimeter and übbelohde type viscometer, respectively. These data have been used to calculate standard partial molar volumes, V_f ⁰V_{\phi} ^{0}, transfer partial molar volumes, Δ_tr V ⁰, and viscosity B-coefficients of the solutions. The transfer partial molar volumes are negative, and decrease with increasing the concentration of ionic liquid for all of the investigated solutions. It found that this ionic liquid interacts strongly with the Schiff base (Salpr) and has desolvation effect on the Schiff base molecules.     

Facile synthesis of novel bis-derivatives of 2,5-diamino-thiadiazole/<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>′-thiocarbohydrazide and their biological perspective

A series of new bis derivatives of 2,5-thiadiazole and N,N′-thiocarbohydrazide along with their transition metal complexes were synthesized by green methods (sonochemical and microwave), i.e., energy and time efficient and operationally more simple than existing conventional methods. All the synthesized compounds were fully characterized by routine analytical techniques and subjected to a preliminary biological screening. These novel characterized compounds were screened for antimicrobial activities and showed promising results. A few potent compounds were also tested for antitumor activities against MDA-MB231 (human breast carcinoma cell line) and compound 5 has emerged as a potential antitumor compound followed by compound 2, 10 and 9, with IC₅₀ values of 29.48, 32.25, 32.34 and 34.34 μg/ml, respectively. To understand the binding interactions of these compounds, in silico studies were performed using the AUTODOCK 4.2 suite and found to be supportive of the experimental results.     

Thermophysical properties of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-dimеthylacetamide mixtures with <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>-butanol

The refraction, dielectric, viscosity, density, data of the binary mixtures of N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA) with n-butanol at 308.15 and 313.15 K. The measured parameters used to obtain derived properties like Bruggeman factor, molar refraction and excess static dielectric constant, excess inverse relaxation time, excess molar volume and excess viscosity, excess molar refraction. The variation in magnitude with composition and temperature of these quantities has been used to discuss the type, strength and nature of binary interactions. Results confirm that there are strong hydrogen-bond interactions between unlike molecules of DMA+ n-butanol mixtures and that 1: 1 complexes are formed and strength of intermolecular interaction increases with temperature.     

Cyclization of the substituted <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-(<Emphasis Type="Italic">Ortho</Emphasis>-cyclopropylphenyl)-<Emphasis Type="Italic">N′</Emphasis>-aryl ureas and thioureas in the gas phase and solution

Electron ionization (EI), chemical ionization (CI), tandem mass spectrometry, high-resolution measurements, and labeling studies as well as quantum chemical calculations were used to understand the behavior of the molecular radical cations (EI) and protonated molecules (CI) of substituted N-(ortho-cyclopropylphenyl)-N'-aryl ureas and N-(ortho-cyclopropylphenyl)-N'-aryl thioureas in a mass spectrometer. Fragmentation schemes and possible mechanisms of primary isomerization were proposed. According to the fragmentation pattern, formation of the corresponding benzoxazines and benzothiazines was considered as the major process of isomerization of the original M(+.) and MH(+), although some portions of these ions definitely transformed into other structures. The treatment of N-(ortho-cyclopropylphenyl)-N'-phenyl urea and N-(ortho-cyclopropylphenyl)-N'-phenylthiourea in solution with strong acids formed predicted 4-ethyl-N-phenyl-4H-3,1-benzoxazin-2-amin and 4-ethyl-N-phenyl-4H-3,1-benzothiazin-2-amine as principal products.

A procedure for extraction-photometric determination of N′,N′-dialkylbenzhydrazides has been proposed; the procedure is based on the formation of its colored complex with copper (II) followed by extraction with p-xylene and absorbance measurements at 460 nm (0.1–0.4 mmol of analyte in the sample) or at 330 nm (0.005–0.025 mmol of analyte in the sample).     

Synthesis and crystal and molecular structures of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N,N</Emphasis>′-methylenedipyridinium tetrachlorozincate(II) and <Emphasis Type="Italic">N,N</Emphasis>′-methylenedipyridinium tetrachlorocadmate(II)

Treatment of N,N′-methylenedipyridinium dichloride [C₅H₅N-CH₂-NC₅H₅]Cl₂ with MCl₂ (M = Zn or Cd) in aqueous solution gives the organic-inorganic hybrid ionic compounds [C₅H₅N-CH₂-NC₅H₅] · [MCl₄]. Both complex salts were fully characterised by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and their molecular structures confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction studies. The most striking feature in both solid state structures was the presence of the C…Cl-M short contacts between the organic [C₅H₅N-CH₂-NC₅H₅] dication and inorganic [MCl₄] anion, which led to different crystal packing. For [C₅H₅N-CH₂-NC₅H₅]·[ZnCl₄], the C…Cl-Zn interactions led to the alternating arrangement of [C₅H₅N-CH₂-NC₅H₅]²⁺[ZnCl₄]²⁻ to form 1-D chains in the direction [010], and each individual chain had a two-fold rotational axis along the b axis, while for [C₅H₅N-CH₂-NC₅H₅] · [CdCl₄] the C…Cl-Cd associations gave 2-D network. In both solid state structures, the presence of Cl-ring centroid distances gave a strong indication of some form of Cl-π interactions.

The formation of N′-(benzoyloxy)benzenecarboximidamides and their subsequent cyclization to 3,5-disubstituted 1,2,4-oxadiazoles in different solvents were studied. A probable reaction mechanism was proposed on the basis of the obtained results.     

SBR composites reinforced with <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-isopropyl-<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>′-phenyl-<Emphasis Type="Italic">P</Emphasis>-phenylenediamine-modified clay

SBR compounds including the N-isopropyl-N’-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine-modified clay(organoclay) were prepared.Effects of modified clay and antioxidant(IPPD) contents on mechanical and rheological properties of SBR composites were studied.FTIR results confirmed that the clay was chemically modified by IPPD and changed into an organoclay.X-ray diffraction(XRD) results confirmed the increase in interlayer distance of the clay due to the insertion of IPPD.Rheological and cure characteristics of SBR compounds were determined using RPA(Rubber Process Analyzer) and rheometer.Scorch time and cure time of SBR compounds decreased with introduction of the organoclay.Mechanical properties and heat aging resistance of the SBR composites were improved significantly by incorporation of the organoclay.     

Adsorption of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-hydrocinnamoyl-<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-phenylhydroxylamine on pure minerals

Equilibrium adsorption studies of N-hydrocinnamoyl-N-phenylhydroxylamine (HCNPHA) on galena, sphalerite, pyrite, chalcopyrite and quartz at pH 9 and 10 are reported. All adsorption isotherms followed Langmuir model, however, Freundlich type was observed for quartz. As HCNPHA is a strong chelating agent, formation of monolayers by chemisorption appeared to be the most probable mechanism of adsorption on the base-metal sulphide minerals. Specific adsorption of HCNPHA on iron containing minerals, namely, chalcopyrite and pyrite, was about three times that on galena and sphalerite, and specific adsorption on quartz was the lowest amongst the minerals studied. Specific adsorptions (in μmol/g) of HCNPHA on the minerals at pH 9 are: sphalerite: 30.5; galena: 26.9; chalcopyrite: 112.3; pyrite: 145.4; quartz: 2.9. Compared to pH 9, specific adsorption of HCNPHA on the minerals decreased at pH 10, indicating hydroxylation of mineral sites due to higher hydroxide ion concentration at pH 10. A spectral-colorimetric procedure was developed for the quantitative estimation of HCNPHA. Due to deprotonation of hydroxamic acids direct estimation using UV absorption was not possible. Hence, complexation of HCNPHA with Fe³⁺ was used to develop a purple coloured complex that absorbs in the visible region with λ _max=500 nm. Change in concentration of HCNPHA was measured from absorbance of the HCNPHA- Fe³⁺ complex at 500 nm.     

Structural characterization of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>′-bis(2-methoxyethyl) -4,5-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)imidazolinium hexafluorophosphate

The crystal and molecular structure of the N,N′-bis(2-methoxyethyl)-4,5-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)- imidazolinium hexafluorophosphate, which is the first example of 1,3- and 4,5-disubstituted imidazolinium salts, have been determined and characterized by X-ray single crystal diffraction technique,¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P and ¹⁹F NMR spectroscopy. The compound, C₂₇H₃₉N₂O₂ ⁺·PF₆ ^?, crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pba2 with a = 15.8139(4) Å, b = 22.9346(7) Å, c = 8.069(3) Å. Two charge-assisted C–H\(\cdots\)F type crystal packing interactions between the imidazolinium C–H bonds and the F atoms of hexafluorophosphate counteranions build up zigzag chains along a-axis of the unit cell and indicate that the C–H bonds of the imidazolinium ring are also polarized. In addition, the title salt was modeled by DFT calculations in order to verify charge transfer mechanism observed in its imidazolinium ring.
