Copper(II) perchlorate complexes with N-methyl substituted xanthines

TL;DR: In this article, the binding sites for caffeine and theophylline are the N(9) and N(7) imidazole nitrogens, respectively, in view of previously reported crystal structures of Cu2+ complexes with these ligands.

Structural Studies on Complexes IV: Crystal Structure of a 1:1 5-Chlorosalicylic Acid and Theophylline Complex

TL;DR: The packing arrangement of the molecules suggests that the stacking forces are similar to those in a caffeine: 5-chlorosalicylic acid complex.

Infrared Study of the Interaction Between Caffeine and Hydroxylic Derivatives

TL;DR: The interaction between caffeine and hydroxylic derivatives (phenols, water) has been studied by infrared (IR) spectroscopy in 1,2-dichloroethane and the spectroscopic results show that the interaction of water takes place on the N9 atom of the imidazole ring in agreement with earlier X-ray results.

Zirconium(IV) oxochloride complexes with xanthines and hypoxanthine

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the heptacoordinated polymeric ZrO(LH) 2 LCl·H 2 O (LH ≡ xanthine, hypoxanthine and theophylline, theobromine) complexes are obtained by boiling under reflux 2:1 molar mixtures of ligand and Zr OCl 2 ·8H2 O in ethanol-triethyl orthoformate.

Computer simulation of the dartmouth process for separation of dilute Ethanol/Water mixtures

TL;DR: In this article, a computer simulation of the Dartmouth Process is presented, which aims to reduce energy costs by the use of IHOSR distillation, extensive heat integration, and extractive distillation using a salt.
