7-Chloro-2-[1-(4-methoxy­phen­yl)pyrazol-4-yl]-3,3-dimethyl-3H-indole

In the title compound, C20H18ClN3O, the dihedral angle between the pyrazole and the 3H-indole components is only 13.28 (6)°, indicating that there is conjugation between the two heterocyclic subunits. The N-methoxy­phenyl unit makes a dihedral angle of 25.10 (7)° with the pyrazole ring

3-(1-Methyl­pyrrolidin-2-yl­idene)-3H-indole sesquihydrate

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C13H14N2·1.5H2O, contains two similar mol­ecules of 3-(1-methyl­pyrrolidin-2-yl­idene)-3H-indole, (I), and three water mol­ecules. (I) is the product of reacting indole with 1-methyl­pyrrolidin-2-one in the presence of phospho­rus oxychloride. Both organic molecules are almost completely planar; the maximum distances above and below the least-squares plane through all the atoms of mol­ecule 1 are 0.050 (8) and −0.045 (8) Å, respectively, and the deviations for mol­ecule 2 are 0.096 (8) and −0.059 (8) Å, respectively. In the crystal, the two crystallographically different mol­ecules alternate in π-stacked columns [centroid–centroid distances = 3.729 (5) and 3.858 (5) Å], which are linked by O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds to a network of hydrogen-bonded water mol­ecules. O—H⋯O inter­actions are also present

Influence of ultrasonic vibration on the microstructure and texture evolution of AZ91 magnesium alloy during ultrasonic-assisted friction stir welding

The aim of this work is to investigate the influence of ultrasonic vibration on the microstructure and texture evolution in ultrasonic-assisted friction stir welding (UaFSW) of AZ91 Mg alloy. Ultrasonic vibration with an amplitude of 15 µm induced to the weld line perpendicularly to the welding direction. A scanning electron microscopy equipped with electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) was used to investigate the microstructure and texture changes of the joints. A high fraction of low-angle grain boundaries (LAGBs) was observed during the occurrence of dynamic recovery (DRV) in thermomechanically affected zones (TMAZs) of welded specimens. Statistical analysis from the grain boundaries of the stir zone (SZ) revealed that the fraction of high-angle grain boundaries (HAGBs) in the SZ of UaFSW joint is higher than that of the FSW joint. The results along with the formation of simple shear texture components in the SZ of welds imply that continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX) is responsible for grain refinement in the SZs. Moreover, vibration associated with UaFSW assisted the DRV and CDRX mechanisms and increases the intensity of the developed texture in the SZ of the UaFSW joint

1-[(E)-4-(5-Bromo-1H-indol-3-yl)-1-methyl-2,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-azepin-2- ylidene]propan-2-one

In the title compound, C(18)H(19)BrN(2)O, the seven-membered azepine ring adopts a twist-boat conformation: the bond angles about the azepine N atom are indicative of sp (2) hybridization. The dihedral angle between the plane of the carbon–carbon double bond of the enone unit and the mean plane of the indole ring is 27.8 (1)°. In the crystal, an N—H⋯O hydrogen bond links the mol­ecules into chains along the b axis
