https://www.selleckchem.com/products/nbqx.html A straightforward synthesis of a series of previously unknown N-(1,2,5-oxadiazolyl)hydrazones through the diazotization/reduction/condensation cascade of amino-1,2,5-oxadiazoles was accomplished. The described protocol was suitable for a wide array of target hydrazones, which were prepared in good to high yields under smooth reaction conditions with very good functional group tolerance. Importantly, the presented approach unveils a direct route to in situ generation of previously inaccessible (1,2,5-oxadiazolyl)hydrazines. In addition, a first example of the ionic structure incorporating a protonated hydrazone motif linked to the 1,2,5-oxadiazole 2-oxide subunit was synthesized, indicating the stability of prepared compounds toward acid-promoted hydrolysis. Overall, this method provides a direct access to the isosteric analogues of drug candidates for treatment of various neglected diseases, thus enabling their potential application in medicinal chemistry and drug design.In this study, the UV photodissociation of gas phase ion pairs of the ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, [emim]+[tf2n]-, is shown to proceed primarily through radical intermediates. [emim]+[tf2n]- ion pairs have been shown previously to undergo two-photon-dependent dissociation, but the mechanisms of this have not been probed in detail. By employing a two-laser pump probe spectroscopy and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations, we have illustrated that one of the major UV photodissociation pathways in [emim]+[tf2n]- ion pairs is an intermolecular electron transfer wherein the anion transfers an electron to the cation resulting in two neutral open-shelled products. These products were observable for at least 1.6 μs post photodissociation, the experimental limit, via detection of the [emim]+ cation. This data demonstrates that the likely photoproducts of [emim]+[tf2n]- UV photodissociation a
