Generation and cycloadditions of 4,5-dihydrooxazole- and oxazolidine-4-carbonitrile N-oxides
TL;DR: A route to 2-phenyl-4,5-dihydrooxazole-4-carbonitrile N-oxide was developed starting from (S)-serine methyl ester and involving dehydration of the 4-nitromethyl derivative using m-tolylene diisocyanate and triethylamine.
Journal ArticleDOI
An unusual (CuSCN) ∞ structural motif in the non-centrosymmetric coordination polymer [(CuSCN) 2 (pyrimidine)] ∞
TL;DR: In this article, the coordination network of the three-dimensional (CuSCN)2(pym) has been characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies, revealing a new 3D structural motif.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bis(ethylxanthato)phenylantimony(III)
TL;DR: The Sb atom in the title compound, bis(O-ethyl dithiocarbonato-S)phenylantimony(III), [Sb(C6H5)(C3H5OS2)2], is in sixfold coordination to the C atom of the phenyl group, and five S atoms of three xanthate ligands.
Journal ArticleDOI
Macrocyclic liquid crystals from functionalised thioether crowns: the single-crystal X-ray structures of cis- and trans-R2[14]aneS4(R = O2CC6H4OMe-4)
TL;DR: The synthesis of cis and trans oligobenzoate ester derivatives R2[14]aneS4 and O2CC6H4OMe-4 are described in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
The preparation and solid-state structure of Ru5C(CO)13(η4-C4Ph4): the first cluster to carry a cyclobutadiene ring
TL;DR: In this paper, a new organometallic pentaruthenium cluster Ru5C(CO)13(η4-C4Ph4) has been prepared from the redox mediated ligand transfer reaction between [Ru5C (CO)14]2 and [Pd( η4C 4Ph4)(acetone)3]2]2+ during which the four-membered ring transfers from the palladium cation to a cluster ruthensium atom; the cluster has been characterised by single-crystal X-ray
