ABSTRACT
The optimized synthesis of [5-oxo-4,4-diphenylimidazolidin-2-ylidene]cyanamide, which is known as 2-cyanoguanidinophenytoin (CNG-DPH) (3), and (imidazo[4,5-d]imidazole-2,5-diylidine)dicyanamide (4) has been reported in the present work. Furthermore, new Mannich bases derived from CNG-DPH were synthesized via its reaction with formaldehyde and using the corresponding amines, piperidine (base 5), and morpholine (base 6). Also, the antimicrobial activity and X-ray crystal structures for CNG-DPH and their Mannich bases were studied. The bases 3 and 6 crystallized in a monoclinic system; the crystal structure of 3 containing four molecules in the unit cell with a P21/c space group. The unit cell of 6 has eight molecules with a C2/c space group. The inter and intra hydrogen bond contacts packed and stabilized both of the structures. The morpholine ring of base 6 demonstrated a distinctive chair configuration. Mannich bases 5 and 6 showed promising antimicrobial effects. base 4 has a greater percentage for in vitro cytotoxicity (IC50) against normal cells, whereas 3 has the lowest ratio.

Ternary silicate glass (69SiO2-27CaO-4P2O5) was synthesized with the sol-gel route, and different percentages of germanium oxide GeO2 (6.25, 12.5, and 25%) and polyacrylic acid (PAA) were added. DFT calculations were performed at the B3LYP/LanL2DZ level of theory for molecular modelling. X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) was used to study the effect of GeO2/PAA on the structural properties. The samples were further characterized using DSC, ART-FTIR, and mechanical tests. Bioactivity and antibacterial tests were assessed to trace the influence of GeO2 on biocompatibility with biological systems. Modelling results demonstrate that molecular electrostatic potential (MESP) indicated an enhancement of the electronegativity of the studied models. While both the total dipole moment and HOMO/LUMO energy reflect the increased reactivity of the P4O10 molecule. XRPD results confirmed the samples formation and revealed the correlation between the crystallinity and the properties, showing that crystalline hydroxyapatite (HA) is clearly formed in the highest percentages of GeO2, proposing 25% as a strong candidate for medical applications, consistent with the results of mechanical properties and the rest of the characterization results. Simulated body fluid (SBF) in vitro experiments showed promising biocompatibility. The samples showed remarkable antimicrobial and bioactivity, with the strongest effect at 25%. The experimental findings of this study revealed that the incorporation of GeO2 into the glass in terms of structural characteristics, bioactivity, antimicrobial properties, and mechanical properties is advantageous for biomedical fields and especially for dental applications.

The structure of 2-[(4-chlorophenylazo) cyanomethyl] benzoxazole, C15H9ClN4O (I), has triclinic ([Formula: see text]) symmetry. The structure displays N-H ⯠N hydrogen bonding. The structure of 2-[(arylidene) cyanomethyl] benzoxazoles, C17H10N2O3 (II), has triclinic ([Formula: see text]) symmetry. The structure displays C-H ⯠N, C-H ⯠C hydrogen bonding. In (I), the chlorophenyl and benzoxazole groups adopt a trans configuration with respect to the central cyanomethyle hydrazone moiety. Compound (II) crystallized with two molecules in the asymmetric unit shows cisoid conformation between cyano group and benzoxazole nitrogen, contrary to (I). In (II) the benzodioxole has an envelope conformation (the C17 atom is the flap atom). The molecular geometry obtained using molecular mechanics (MM) calculations has been discussed along with the results of single crystal analysis.
ABSTRACT
Singular value decomposition (SVD) analysis has important applications for time-dependent crystallographic data, extracting significant information. Herein, a successful application of SVD analysis of time-resolved powder diffraction data over the course of an in-situ photodimerization reaction of anthracene derivatives is introduced. SVD revealed significant results in the case of 9-methylanthracene and 1-chloroanthracene. The results support the formation of the 9-methylanthracene stable dimer phase and suggest the existence of an excimer state.
ABSTRACT
The racemic title compound, C30H26Cl3N3O2, comprises two spiro links, the first connecting the piperidine and pyrrolidine rings and the other connecting the indole and pyrrolidine rings. The piperidine ring adopts a half-chair conformation, while the pyrrolidine ring has an envelope conformation with the unsubstituted C atom as the flap. The dihedral angles between the two p-Cl-substituted benzene rings and the indole ring are 33.13â (14) and 54.11â (14)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules form inversion dimers through pairs of N-Hâ¯O hydrogen bonds [graph set R 2 (2)(8)]. Aromatic C-Hâ¯O hydrogen bonds extend these dimers into a ribbon structure, enclosing R (2) 2(14) ring motifs, along the a-axis direction.
ABSTRACT
The [4π + 4π] photodimerization process of the 9-substituted anthracene derivative crystalline 9-methylanthracene (9-MA) was investigated using time-resolved X-ray powder diffraction. The study was carried out in-situ using a CCD area detector. Sequential and parametric Rietveld refinement was applied for quantitative phase analysis. The results of traditional sequential Rietveld refinement showed that the evolution of the dimerization process can be described using the Johnson-Mehl-Avrami-Kolmogorov (JMAK) model. The parameters of the JMAK equation were obtained successfully by parametric Rietveld refinement and suggest that the reaction follows heterogeneous nucleation and one-dimensional growth with a decreasing nucleation rate.
