https://www.selleckchem.com/products/tng260.html Canted antiferromagnetism (AFM) is considered an effective tool for designing single-chain magnets (SCMs) in homometallic chain systems. The family of manganese(iii) (MnIII) salen-type Schiff-base complexes is an outstanding building-unit candidate for designing SCMs because such complexes possess relatively large uniaxial magnetic anisotropy in the out-of-plane direction. However, SCM behaviour in simple alternating chains based on monomeric MnIII salen-type complexes has not been studied extensively. Herein, we report the SCM behaviour of canted AFM in an alternating chain of an acetate-bridged MnIII salen-type complex.The reaction of diazo(aryl)methyl(diaryl)phosphine oxides with aldehydes and ketones generates benzo-δ-phosphinolactones in low to good yields with 1,1-diarylalk-1-enes as byproducts under microwave irradiation. Diazo(aryl)methyl(diaryl)phosphine oxides first undergo a Wolff rearrangement to form diaryl(aryl)phosphenes, which further react with aldehydes and ketones to afford benzo-δ-phosphinolactones and β-phosphinolactones. The latter are unstable under heating and fragment into the corresponding 1,1-diarylalk-1-enes and arylphosphine dioxides under reaction conditions. The arylphosphine dioxides become arylphosphonic acids during workup. The periselectivity in the annulation shows that the reaction of diaryl(aryl)phosphenes with most aldehydes and ketones favors phosphene phenyl participation in (4 + 2) annulation over (2 + 2) annulation.The present work is focused on the synthesis of bismuth sulfide (Bi2S3) nanorod/reduced graphene oxide (RGO) composites via a one-step hydrothermal method using GO and bismuth nitrate in 5  1, 3  1 and 2  1 weight ratios and their characterization. The morphological studies revealed the formation of homogeneously dispersed Bi2S3 nanorods on RGO sheets along with occasional wrapping in the Bi2S3 nanorod/RGO (3  1) composite. XRD, FTIR, Raman and XPS studies suggeste
