General description

1,4-Dibromobutane reaction with atactic poly(2-vinylpyridine) leads to the formation of long-range 3D molecular ordering in polymer chains.

Application

1,4-Dibromobutane was used to investigate the metabolism of two halopropanes: 1,3-dichloropropane and 2,2-dichloropropane. It was used as reagent during the synthesis of diazadioxa oxovanadium(IV) macrocyclic complexes.

A new series of diazadioxa oxovanadium(IV) macrocyclic complexes of type [VO(mac)]SO(4) have been synthesized via the condensation reaction of a 3-(phenyl/substituted phenyl)-4-amino-5-hydrazino-1,2,4-triazole (H(2)L) with salicylaldehyde/2-hydroxyacetophenone and 1,4-dibromobutane in the presence of oxovanadium(IV) sulfate in ethanol. All the newly synthesized compounds

Inorganic dispersion is of great importance for actual implementation of advanced properties of organic-inorganic composites. Currently, electron microscopy is the most conventional approach for observing dispersion of inorganic fillers from ultrathin sections of organic-inorganic composites at the nanoscale by professional

In phene-50% NaOH medium, 1,4-dibromobutane reacts with carbazole (CZ) to form N-bromobutylcarbaole (BCZ) at 70-80 degrees C. The 2-thenoyl-2-carbazolyl-N-butyltrifluoroacetone (TCBTA) was synthesized by reaction of BCZ with 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetone (TTA) in acetone-K2CO3 medium at 50 degrees C. The TCBTA is a

Anion exchange membrane fuel cells (AEMFCs) have captivated vast interest due to non-platinum group metal catalysts and fuel flexibility. One of the major shortcomings of AEMFCs, however, is the lack of a stable and high anion conducting membrane. This study

Two stable sulfur-containing metabolites were isolated from rat urine following administration of the mutagenic 1,4-dibromobutane. They were identified as tetrahydrothiophene and 3-hydroxysulfolane by gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and were found to be excreted in 48-hr urine, representing 5.8
