Amide tautomers, which constitute the higher-energy amide bond linkage, not only are key for a variety of biological but also prebiotic processes. In this work, we present the gas-phase synthesis of 1-aminoethenol, the higher-energy tautomer of acetamide, that has not been spectroscopically identified to date. The title compound was prepared by flash vacuum pyrolysis of malonamic acid and was characterized employing matrix isolation infrared as well as ultraviolet/visible spectroscopy. Coupled-cluster computations at the AE-CCSD(T)/cc-pVTZ level of theory support the spectroscopic assignments. Upon photolysis at > 270 nm, the enol rearranges to acetamide as well as ketene and ammonia. As the latter two are even higher in energy, they constitute viable starting materials for formation of the title compound.

Crown-ether coordination compounds of europium(II/III) and the crown ether (CHO) (24-crown-8, 24c8) are prepared, aiming at novel compounds, structures, and coordination modes as well as potential luminescence properties. By reacting EuCl, EuI, or EuCl with 24c8 or its derivatives in ionic liquids, the novel compounds [BuMeN][Eu(II)(NTf)] (), [BMIm][EuI] (), [EuCl(dibenzo-18c6)] (), [EuI(dibenzo-24c8)] (), [(Eu(III)Cl)(CHO)](24c8) (), and [Eu(III)Cl(24c8)]I () are obtained (BMIm: 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium; EMIm: 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium). Based on different reaction conditions, different coordinative modes including the absence of the crown ether in the product (, ), splitting of the crown ether (), and coordination of 24c8 via six of eight oxygen atoms () and, finally, via all oxygen atoms () are observed.

New derivatives 6a-m with benzimidazole-indole-amide scaffold were developed, synthesized, and assessed for potential inhibitory effects on α-glucosidase and acetylcholinesterase (AChE). These compounds were synthesized by various amine derivatives. With the exception of two compounds, the α-glucosidase inhibitory activities of the title derivatives were more than that of the positive control acarbose.
