Disubstituted isothiazolo[4,3-b]pyridines are known inhibitors of cyclin G-associated kinase. Since 3-substituted-7-aryl-isothiazolo[4,3-b]pyridines remain elusive, a strategy was established to prepare this chemotype, starting from 2,4-dichloro-3-nitropyridine. Selective C-4 arylation using ligand-free Suzuki-Miyaura coupling and palladium-catalyzed aminocarbonylation functioned as key steps in the synthesis. The 3-N-morpholinyl-7-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-isothiazolo[4,3-b]pyridine was completely devoid of GAK affinity, in contrast to its 3,5- and 3,6-disubstituted congeners. Molecular modeling was applied to rationalize its inactivity as a GAK ligand. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The title compound, C27H20N4O3S, crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/n, with Z = 4. The global shape of the molecule is determined by the orientation of the substituents on the central 4H-1,2,4-triazole ring. The nitrophenyl ring, phenyl ring, and naphthalene ring system are oriented at dihedral angles of 82.95 (17), 77.14 (18) and 89.46 (15)°, respectively, with respect to the triazole ring. The crystal packing features chain formation in the b-axis direction by S...O interactions. A Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the highest contributions to surface contacts arise from contacts in which H atoms are involved. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A new family of unsymmetrical boron chromophores chelated with two BF2 units, named BOPAM, has been developed via a one‐pot, three‐step reaction starting from commercially available thioamides via i) conversion to amidrazones, ii) condensation with pyrrole aldehydes, and iii) boron chelation. This synthetic pathway has been proven to be highly efficient, having a broad substrate tolerance and giving the BOPAM products high yield. Notably, some of the BOPAM dyes show interesting photophysical properties with fluorescence quantum yields up to 0.98 in toluene. A fine‐tuning of their emissive properties has been attained through tailored molecular design strategies guided by in‐depth computational investigations. Tailored substitution with electron‐donating groups at the BOPAM ring leads to the opening of a non‐radiative decay channel involving a dark state and consequently a significant quenching of the fluorescence. The study is complemented by exhaustive steady‐state and time‐resolved spectroscopic measurements. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The molecular and crystal structure of (E)-2-[(benzo[d]thiazol-2-ylimino)- methyl]-5-(diethylamino)phenol (C18H19N3O2S, Et2N-Bz) and its unexpected reaction product with triphenylborane, 2,2-diphenyl-1,3-dioxa-2-borata-1,2-dihydronaphthalene [systematic name: N,N-diethyl-2,2-diphenyl-2H-1,3λ³,2λ4-benzodioxaborinin-7-amine, C23H24BNO2, (I)] are described. For Et2N-Bz, the hydroxyl group is involved in an intramolecular hydrogen bond with the imino nitrogen atom and the C N bond displays an E configuration. The crystal packing is characterized by layers of inversion dimers parallel to the (101) plane and chains of molecule in the a-axis direction formed through C--H⋯O interactions. Complex (I) crystallizes with two molecules (A and B) in the asymmetric unit, which differ in the orientation of the ethyl groups. The 1,3- dioxa-2-borata-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene ring displays a slight envelope conformation with the boron atom as the flap. In the crystal packing, chains of alternating A and B molecules formed by C--H⋯O hydrogen bonds run in the b-axis direction. The UV--vis absorption and emission properties of the compounds are discussed and their aggregation-induced emission properties are further investigated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Sulfur(VI)‐fluoride exchange (SuFEx) chemistry, an all‐encompassing term for substitution events that replace fluoride at an electrophilic sulfur(VI), enables the rapid and flexible assembly of linkages around a SVI core. Although a myriad of nucleophiles and applications works very well with the SuFEx concept, the electrophile design has remained largely SO2‐based. Here, we introduce S≡N‐based fluorosulfur(VI) reagents to the realm of SuFEx chemistry. Thiazyl trifluoride (NSF3) gas is shown to serve as an excellent parent compound and SuFEx hub to efficiently synthesize mono‐ and disubstituted fluorothiazynes in an ex situ generation workflow. Gaseous NSF3 was evolved from commercial reagents in a nearly quantitative fashion at ambient conditions. Moreover, the mono‐substituted thiazynes could be extended further as SuFEx handles and be engaged in the synthesis of unsymmetrically disubstituted thiazynes. These results provide valuable insights into the versatility of these understudied sulfur functionalities paving the way for future applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The title compound, C10H14BrN5O2S, is the bromobenzenesulfonamide derivative of the type 2 diabetes drug metformin. The asymmetric unit contains two molecules with almost identical conformations but a different orientation of the bromophenyl moiety. Both molecules exhibit intramolecular N--H· · ·N and N--H· · ·O hydrogen bonds. The molecular packing features chain formation in the a-axis direction by alternating N--H· · ·N and N--H· · ·O interactions. In addition, ring motifs consisting of four molecules and π-π interactions between the phenyl rings contribute to the three-dimensional architecture. A Hirshfeld surface analysis shows that the largest contributions to surface contacts arise from contacts in which H atoms are involved. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
