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.     

Converting dipyrrinones to lactim ethers to fluorescent N,N′-difluoroboryl derivatives

A high-yield straightforward conversion of lactams to lactim ethers is shown by the conversion of (10H)-dipyrrin-1-ones to (11H)-dipyrrin-1-ol methyl and ethyl ethers in 90% yield from heating in neat trimethyl or triethyl phosphite at 160°C. Unlike the parent dipyrrinones, which form intermolecularly hydrogen-bonded dimers in CHCl₃, their lactim ethers are shown to be monomeric by vapor pressure osmometry. The latter react with boron trifluoride etherate to N,N′-bridged BF₂ derivatives that exhibit strong fluorescence (φ_F 0.6–0.8) near 535 nm. X-Ray crystal structures were obtained of the lactim ethyl ether of kryptopyrromethenone and the BF₂ derivative of the lactim ethyl ether 2,3-diethyl-7,8-dimethyl-(10H)-dipyrrin-1-one.

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.     

Novel mixed-ligand complexes of coumarilate/<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>′-diethylnicotinamide with some transition metals

Coordination complexes of transition metal cations (Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Zn^II) containing coumarilate and N,N′-diethylnicotinamide were synthesized. The structural characterization and thermal behaviour analysis of novel samples synthesized were conducted through elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility, solid-state UV–Vis, direct and injection probe mass spectra, FTIR spectra, thermoanalytic TG-DTG/DTA and single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The structural details of single crystals of [Co(dena)₂(H₂O)₄](coum)₂ (I) and [Cu(coum)₂(dena)₂(H₂O)₂] (III) complexes were resolved completely. Moreover, the results of analysis obtained for [Ni(coum)₂(dena)₂(H₂O)₂] (II) and [Zn(dena)₂(H₂O)₄](coum)₂ (IV) complexes were interpreted considering the samples with crystal structures defined and made assumptions about the structural details. It was determined that the complex of Co^II metal cation has salt-type structure and the coordination number of metal is accomplished to six as the sum of 4 mol of water and also 2 mol of N,N′-diethylnicotinamide ligands in trans position located within the coordination sphere. It was observed that 2 mol of coumarilate anions are located outside the coordination sphere and have stabilized to the charge (2+) of metal. The Cu^II complex has totally molecular structure, and the coordination sphere of metal cation was 6 as the sum of 2 mol of water, 2 mol of N,N′-diethylnicotinamide and 2 mol of monoanionic monodentate coumarilate ligands. All ligands have been located in –trans position. The geometry of both complex structures is distorted octahedral. It is assumed that the Ni^II complex structure is isostructural with Cu^II complex structure and also does Zn^II complex with Co^II structure. It was determined that the decomposition products obtained from thermal analysis are the oxides of related metal cations.

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.

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.

Volumetric Properties of Sodium Nitrobenzoate in <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>, <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-Dimethylformamide–Water Mixtures at 298.15 K

Densities of sodium nitrobenzoate (o-, m-, p-) have been measured in dimethylformamide (DMF)–water mixtures at 298.15 K with an oscillating-tube densimeter. From these densities, apparent molar volumes of sodium nitrobenzoate in DMF–H₂O-mixtures have been calculated and partial molar volumes at infinite dilution have been evaluated. Substituent and solvent effects on the transfer volumes of each isomer from water to DMF–H₂O-mixed solvents have also been obtained. The results are explained in terms of solvent–solvent and solute–solvent interactions.     

Chain mechanism of the reactions of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>′-diphenyl-1,4-benzoquinone diimine with thiophenol and 1-decanethiol

The kinetics of the reactions of N,N′-diphenyl-1,4-benzoquinone diimine with thiophenol and 1-decanethiol in chlorobenzene at 343 K has been investigated spectrophotometrically in an argon atmosphere with monitoring of the disappearance of quinone diimine as its absorbance in the visible range. The acceleration of the reactions in the presence of initiators—tetraphenylhydrazine and azobisisobutyronitrile—indicates that the reactions proceed via a chain mechanism under the chosen experimental conditions. The chain length of the reactions in the absence of an initiator is estimated: ν ≈ 10 units in the reaction of quinone diimine with thiophenol and ν ≈ 100 units in the reaction with 1-decanethiol at a quinone diimine concentration of about 10⁻⁴ mol/L and thiol concentrations of about 10⁻³ mol/L. The dependence of the kinetic parameters of the initiated reaction on the thiophenol concentration suggests that the reaction of the thiyl radical with quinone diimine is the rate-determining step of chain propagation. The rate constant of this reaction is estimated at k _pr = 3.2 × 10⁵ L mol⁻¹ s⁻¹. The rates of chain initiation due to the direct interaction of the initial reactants are estimated. In these reactions, the homolytic cleavage of the S-H bond occurs in the thiol, due to which, other conditions being equal, the radical formation rate in the quinone diiminethiophenol system is at least two orders of magnitude higher than that in the quinone diimine-1-decanethiol, in which the strength of S-H bond is higher. A radical chain mechanism is proposed for the reaction of quinone diimine with the thiols on the basis of the data obtained.
