1,1'-[(2-Bromo-phen-yl)-methyl-ene]-dipyrrolidin-2-one.

In the title compound, C(15)H(17)BrN(2)O(2), both pyrrolidinone rings adopt envelope conformations. The crystal packing is characterized by short C-Br⋯O=C inter-actions [Br⋯O = 3.1730 (13) Å], leading to supra-molecular dimers. Inter-molecular C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π inter-actions are also observed.

Complete genome sequence of an isolate of Clerodendron yellow mosaic virus--a new begomovirus from India.

Clerodendron inerme, a common hedge plant grown in India, is affected by a yellow mosaic disease caused by a begomovirus. In the present study, the complete genome (DNA A) of this virus was cloned and sequenced. The total size of DNA A is 2760 nucleotides. The genome of this virus contains six open reading frames and a non-coding intergenic region of 293 nucleotides. Nucleotide sequence comparison analysis revealed maximum sequence identity with Papaya leaf curl virus-Pakistan [Pakistan:Cotton:2002] (73.9%). As this virus had less than 89% identity with other begomoviruses, it was identified as a new begomovirus species and tentatively, named as Clerodendron yellow mosaic virus-[India:New Delhi:2007] (ClYMV-[IN:ND:07]).
