Auto-Bäcklund transformations and solitary wave solutions for the nonlinear evolution equation

In the present work, according to the concept of extended homogeneous balance method and with help of Maple, we get auto-Bäcklund transformations for a (2 + 1)-dimensional nonlinear evolution equation. Subsequently, by using these auto-Bäcklund transformation, exact explicit solutions of this equation are obtained.     

A new dimeric alkylresorcinol from the stem barks of Swintonia floribunda (Anacardiaceae)

From an EtOAc-soluble fraction of the stem barks of Swintonia floribunda (Anacardiaceae), one new dimeric alkylresorcinol named integracin E (1), together with 4 known compounds (2–5) were isolated. Their chemical structures were elucidated based on the spectroscopic data interpretation. The absolute configuration of 1 was determined by the specific rotation analysis of its acid-catalyzed hydrolysis product. Compound 1 showed potent tyrosinase inhibitory activity with an IC₅₀ value of 48.2?μM.     

Electroinitiated Polymerization of N-Vinylcarbazole by Direct Electron Transfer

Electroinitiated polymerization of N-vinylcarbazole has been accomplished by constant potential electrolysis. It was found that direct electron transfer from the monomer to the anode initiates the polymerization even at a potential as low as +0.95 V versus Ag^?/ Ag⁺. Dichloromethane was used as the solvent, and the electrolyte was tetrabutylammonium fluoroborate. Conversions as high as 86% were reached even when a microelectrode was used. Effects of electrode area, temperature, and electrode potential on polymerization were studied. Percent conversion was followed by cyclic voltammetry.

Structural characterization of disperse black 9 based Cu (II) complex and investigation of its some properties

We obtained the azo‐imine ligand (2,2′‐[4‐(5‐methoxy salicylidene‐4‐iminophenylazo)phenylimino]diethanol) (HL) and its Cu (II) complex (CuL) from the ethanol solution. The complex Cu(L)₂ was obtained as single crystals from the CH₃OH solution and structurally characterized. The electronic and photoluminescence properties of the ligand and its Cu (II) complex were investigated both in DMF solution and solid state. The oxidation and reduction behaviours of the compounds were studied in the solution and found that the redox processes are irreversible. Thermal studies show that the ligand has higher thermal stability than the CuL complex. Single crystals of the complex were obtained from slow evaporation of a DMF solution of the complex. Crystals of the complex showed a diffraction pattern; however, the structure of the complex was able to be solved.
