thiophene/dichloromethane

Michael addition acceptors are considered as biologically active molecules, which regulate many signal pathways in cells. In the present study, it was demonstrated that the dichloromethane extract of Echinops grijisii had phase II detoxifying enzyme-inducing and nuclear factor-kappaB

Oligothiophene dyes with two to five thiophene units were anchored to oleate-capped, quantum-confined zinc oxide nanocrystals (ZnO NCs) through a cyanoacrylate functional group. While the fluorescence of the bithiophene derivative was too weak for meaningful quenching studies, the fluorescence of

In this work, we present the synthesis of original thieno[3,4-b]thiophene monomers with rigid substituents (e.g., perfluorinated chains, and aromatic groups) and demonstrate the ability to prepare nanotubular and nanoporous structures via templateless, surfactant-free electropolymerization in

Here, a bioinspired strategy is used to prepare well-ordered nanotubular structures, as observed in animals and plants, such as gecko toe pads or corals. The nanotubes are obtained by templateless electropolymerization of thieno[3,4-b]thiophene-based monomers with various aromatic groups in

A high sulfur Jordanian oil shale was converted into liquid hydrocarbons by reaction at 390 °C under N2, and the dichloromethane soluble fraction of the products was isolated then analyzed by using gas chromatography (GC). Comprehensive two-dimensional GC (GC×GC) and multidimensional GC (MDGC) were

Porophyllum ruderale (Jacq.) Cass. is a plant native to Brazil and in the northwest region of the state of Paraná, Brazil, aerial parts of P. ruderale have been used popularly in the treatment of lesions caused by Leishmania sp.. In this study the antileishmanial and cytotoxic activities of the

Extracts from 30 plants of the Greek flora were evaluated for their antifungal activity using direct bioautography assays with three Colletotrichum species. Among the bioactive extracts, the dichloromethane extract of the radix of Echinops ritro (Asteraceae) was the most potent. Bioassay-guided

The dichloromethane fraction of the crude ethanol extract of Echinops grijissi Hance roots exhibited different cytotoxicity against a panel of four human tumor cell lines, HepG2, K562, HL60 and MCF-7. By a bioassay-guided fractionation, eight thiophenes were isolated from the dichloromethane

Herein, we reported the fabrication of conjugated microporous polymer (CMP) films based on three thiophene derivatives using a one-step templateless electropolymerization in dichloromethane without any surfactants. The formation of hydrophilic or hydrophobic films with specific morphology is a

Malaria is one of the world's most severe endemic diseases and due to the emergence of resistance to the currently available medicines, the need for new targets and relevant antimalarial drugs remains acute. The crude extract, four solvent fractions and two isolated compounds from the roots of

The authors describe the preparation of Fe3O4 nanoparticles coated with poly(p-phenylenediamine-co-thiophene). The resulting nanoparticles (NPs) are shown to be viable sorbents for use in magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) of organophosphorus pesticides (OPPs). The coated NPs were characterized

The photophysics of a symmetric triad consisting of two bithiophene (BT) units covalently linked to a central diketopyrrolopyrrole unit (DPP) has been investigated both in dichloromethane and in the thin film. The DPP-BT film exhibits a red-shifted low-energy absorption band compared to its

Titanium(IV) benzylidenes (Schrock carbenes) bearing a masked sulfur nucleophile in the ortho position were generated from thioacetals with use of low-valent titanocene complex Cp(2)Ti[P(OEt)(3)](2) and alkylidenated Merrifield resin-bound esters to give enol ethers. Treatment of the resin-bound

Molecular dynamics simulations have been performed for poly(calix[4]arene bis(bithiophene)) in dichloromethane solution. This material responds to its electronic structure variations with significant conformational changes, producing contraction-expansion movements. Simulations have been performed

The assembly of Ag and Au nanoparticles (NPs) into nanoparticulate arrays mediated by terpyridine (tpy), 4'-(2-thienyl)terpyridine (T-tpy), and short α,ω-bis(tpy)oligothiophene ligands has been accomplished at the interface between the Ag or Au NP hydrosol and a solution of the molecular species in
