A process for the preparation of a class of molecules, namely bicyclo[1.1.1]pentanes and derivatives thereof by reaction of [1.1.1]propellane with a variety of reagents under irradiation and/or in the presence of radical initiators to obtain bicyclo[1.1.1]pentanes asymmetrically substituted at position 1 and 3, which are useful as intermediates for the preparation of asymmetrically 1,3-disubstituted bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane derivatives and various physiologically active substances or materials containing these structures.

The present invention relates to a group of resorcinol derivatives as a pharmaceutically active compounds and methods of preparation thereof. Resorcinol derivatives have been used to treat various diseases and disorders. While such treatments hold promise, there remains a need in the art for more effective treatments and this has been brought about by way of the resorcinol derivative of the invention.

Poly-perfluoroalkyl substituted polyethyleneimine compositions are provided that act as foam stabilizers and film formers when used in fire-fighting foam concentrates. The polyethylene compositions are soluble in water, but have only low solubility in polar solvents. When aqueous film forming foam generated from these concentrates is applied to burning polar solvent the polyethyleneimine compositions precipitate at the polar solvent/foam interface and inhibit the collapse and destruction of the foam.

Various examples are provided for carbazole-based GUMBOS (group of uniform materials based on organic salts), and its application in organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). In one example, a composition includes a solid phase carbazole-based GUMBOS (group of uniform materials based on organic salts) comprising a counterion such as, e.g., trifluoromethanesulfonate ([Otf]), bis-(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide ([NTf.sub.2]), bis-(pentafluoroethylsulfonyl)imide ([BETI]), tetrafluoroborate (BF4), hexafluorophosphate (PF6), and/or thiocyanate (SCN). The carbazole-based GUMBOS can include carbazoleimidazole-based GUMBOS or 3,6-diBDC carbazolium-based GUMBOS. In another example, a method includes preparing a biphasic solution; separating a layer of DCM from the biphasic solution after stirring; washing the DCM with water to remove byproducts; and evaporating the DCM to form a solid phase carbazoleimidazole-based GUMBOS. Preparing the biphasic solution can include carbazoleimidazolium iodide (CM) dissolved in dichloromethane (DCM) and a dissolved salt including a sodium salt or a lithium salt.
