Synthesis of bis-4H-furo[3,4-b]indoles

We describe the synthesis of two novel bis-4H-furo[3,4-b]indoles from indole. Several alternative pathways to these potential DNA bis-intercalator precursors are discussed, and the synthesis of a novel semi-rigid tether is reported.

PROCESS FOR PREPARING ARYL KETONE

A process for preparing aryl ketones is disclosed. The process includes photo-oxidizing a compound of formula (V), (VI), (VII) or (VIII): in the presence of an oxidative system comprising at least one bromide compound to form aryl ketones. X1, X2, R1, R2, R3, L1, L2, L3, L4, t, n, m and p have the meanings as described in the specification and claims.

Rotaxanes from tetralactams

Attempts to incorporate a tetralactam (3a) into a side-chain polyrotaxane by formation of its complex with p-tritylphenolate and reaction with poly(vinybenzyl chloride) failed, probably due to steric hindrance. However, three new small molecule model rota

Self-Assembled Nanotubes that Reversibly Bind Acetic Acid Guests

A large bis-urea macrocycle was synthesized and assembled into columnar nanotubes containing a sizable cavity. This purely organic nanotube is held together primarily by hydrogen bonding and yet shows remarkable thermal stability up to 180 °C in the prese

Strong binding of alkylguanidinium ions by molecular tweezers: An artificial selective arginine receptor molecule with a biomimetic recognition pattern

Bisphosphonates 2 and 3 represent the first artificial receptor molecules for alkylguanidinium ions. They bind to the guanidinium moiety by forming a 1:l chelate complex, stabilized by a planar network of electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonds. Thi
