9-Methyl-3-phenyldiazenyl-9H-carbazole: X-ray and DFT-calculated structures
2006
The title compound, C19H15N3, was prepared by condensation of 3-nitrosocarbazole and aniline with subsequent methylation. The structure is built up of stacks of almost planar molecules. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations predict a completely planar conformation, different from that observed in the crystal lattice. HOMA (harmonic oscillator model of aromaticity) indices, calculated for three aromatic rings, demonstrate the small influence of the azo substituent on π electrons in the carbazole system.
Enhanced Activity and Stereoselectivity of Polystyrene-Supported Proline-Based Organic Catalysts for Direct Asymmetric Aldol Reaction in Water
2009
Several polystyrene-supported proline dipeptides and a prolinamide derivative were prepared by thiol–ene coupling. These materials were used as catalysts for the direct asymmetric aldol reaction in water, and results compared with unsupported catalysts in water. Such an approach gave more active or stereoselective catalysts compared to the unsupported compounds, showing that our immobilization procedure may be useful to develop catalytic materials with enhanced performance. Moreover, these catalysts can be recovered and reused for at least nine times without loss of activity or can be easily regenerated when their activity has decreased. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Multiphase chemistry in a microphysical radiation fog model—A numerical study
1993
A microphysical radiation fog model is coupled with a detailed chemistry module to simulate chemical reactions in the gas phase and in fog water during a radiation fog event. In the chemical part of the model the microphysical particle spectrum is subdivided into three size classes corresponding to non-activated aerosol particles, small and large fog droplets. Chemical reactions in the liquid phase are separately calculated in the small and in the large droplet size class. The impact of the chemical constitution of activated aerosols on fogwater chemistry is considered in the model simulations. The mass transfer of chemical species between the gas phase and the two liquid phases is treated …

The acidity of calix[5]arenes and their linear analogues
1999
Abstract Five new calix[5]arenes containing a single p-nitrophenol unit as the most acidic phenolic unit have been synthesised by (3+2) fragment condensation of a trimer with a p-nitrophenol in the middle with various bishydroxymethylated alkanediyl diphenols. Their first acid constant (pKal) has been determined in 2-methoxyethanol/water (9:1) at 22°C by optical titration. The pKal values are distinctly lower (ΔpKa > 2) than for the trimer, while no difference has been found in comparison to structurally analogous calix[4]arenes. Rigidification of the calix[5]arene skeleton by introducing a single alkanediyl bridge opposite to the p-nitrophenol unit has no effect on pKal. All values are in …
Comparison of Alkoxy-substituted 4,4´-Distyrylbiphenyls and the Corresponding 4,4´-Distyrylbenzenes
2008
Abstract Configurationally highly pure (E,E)-4,4´-bis(styryl)biphenyls 2a - e were obtained by Siegrist reactions of 4,4´-dimethylbiphenyl 3 and alkoxy-substituted benzaldimines (4a - e). DSC measurements have indicated different crystalline modifications of these conjugated compounds. The stilbenoid chromophores of 2a - e are compared to the stilbenoid chromophores in the OPV series, which have a similar length of conjugation. The intense fluorescence and the high transparency in the visible region are promising properties for an application of the donor-substituted compounds 2a - e in twophoton absorption (TPA) techniques.
Soluble oligo(phenylenevinylene)s with electron withdrawing substituents for the use in light emitting diodes
2000
Poly(p-phenylenevinylene) (PPV) and its derivatives are one of the most widely used classes of phosphors in light emitting diodes. Central problems are the imbalanced charge carrier injection and transport properties due to the high lying conduction band. A series of good soluble oligo(phenylenevinylene)s (OPV) with five benzene rings and a variety of electron withdrawing and accepting substituents have been prepared and may serve as model compounds for PPV with increased electron affinity. The central ring of the OPVs is substituted with two octyloxy groups to ensure good solubility and the lateral styrene units carry further chromophoric groups of different electronic character. The synth…
More insight into characterization of the waterlogged wooden part of Acqualadroni Roman Rostrum by solid-state NMR
2016
Abstract Solid-state NMR spectroscopy was applied to characterize the wooden part of a roman Rostrum recovered in the Tyrrhenian Sea in the Acqualadroni area (Messina, Italy). The Acqualadroni Rostrum has been, in the recent past, investigated to establish its provenance and conservation. In this paper, solid-state NMR was used to obtain information on the conservation state of the wood as a preliminary step for the conservation process. A wooden sample of this artifact, collected by coring, was divided in four parts in order to correlate the conservation state to the depth. Results were compared with those obtained for a modern wood of the same species. A structural study was performed by …
Areno-Condensed 1,7,13-Triaza[18]annulenes
2002
The 1,7,13-triaza[18]annulenes 9a−c were prepared by multi-step processes in which the final step consisted of a threefold cyclic condensation reaction of the Schiff bases 8a−c. Due to the length of the nine peripheral alkoxy chains, discotic liquid crystalline phases were obtained for 9b,c. The three nitrogen atoms in the central 18-membered ring not only permit protonation, but they can also serve for the complexation of NH4+ ions. The compounds 9a−c are highly photosensitive and exhibit crosslinking reactions on irradiation.
