N-(2-Chloro­phen­yl)-N′-(2-methyl­phen­yl)succinamide

In the title compound, C17H17ClN2O2, the asymmetric unit contains half a mol­ecule with a centre of symmetry at the mid-point of the central C—C bond. The conformations of the amide O atoms are anti to the methyl­ene atoms. Further, the N—H bonds in the amide fragments are anti to the ortho-chloro/methyl groups in the adjacent benzene rings. The dihedral angle between the benzene ring and the NH—C(O)—CH2 segment in the two halves of the mol­ecule is 62.0 (2)°. In the crystal, a series of N—H⋯O inter­molecular hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into column-like infinite chains along the a axis. The methyl and Cl groups are disordered with respect to the ortho positions of the benzene ring, with site-occupation factors of 0.5 each

N-(4-Methyl­phen­yl)succinimide

In the mol­ecule of the title compound, C11H11NO2, the dihedral angle between the aromatic ring and the amide segment is 57.3 (1)°

N,N′-Bis(2-chloro­phen­yl)succinamide

There is one half-mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C16H14Cl2N2O2, with a center of symmetry at the mid-point of the central C—C bond. The N—H and C=O bonds in the C—NH—C(O)—C fragment are anti to each other and the amide O atom is anti to the H atoms attached to the adjacent C atoms. However, the conformation of the N—H bond in the amide fragments is syn to the ortho-chloro groups in the adjacent benzene rings. The dihedral angle between the benzene ring and the NH—C(O)—CH2 fragment is 47.0 (2)°. In the crystal, a series of N—H⋯O inter­molecular hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into chains along the b axis

N-(2-Chloro­phen­yl)succinimide

In the title compound, C10H8ClNO2, the dihedral angle between the aromatic benzene ring and the imide segment is 69.5 (1)°. In the crystal structure, mol­ecules are linked by very weak C—H⋯π inter­actions along the [001] direction

N-(4-Methyl­phen­yl)-N′-phenyl­butane­diamide monohydrate

In the title hydrate, C17H18N2O2·H2O, the dihedral angles formed by the aromatic rings of the benzene and methyl­benzene groups with the mean planes of the attached NH—C(O)—CH2 fragments are 12.6 (4) and 23.3 (3)°, respectively, while that between the two aromatic rings is 73.7 (2)°. In the crystal, the water mol­ecule accepts two and makes two hydrogen bonds. The mol­ecules are packed into layers parallel to (101) by O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter­actions

The Impact Of The National Lock Down On Migrant Workers

A migrant worker is a person who either migrates within their home country or outside it to pursue work. Migrant workers usually do not have the intention to stay permanently in the country or region in which they work. The International Labour Organization estimated in 2014 there were 232 million international migrants worldwide who were outside their home country for at least 12 months and approximately half of them were estimated to be economically active, i.e. being employed or seeking employment (Mainstreaming of Migration in Development Policy and Integrating Migration in the Post-2015 UN Development Agenda).In India about 120 million people or more are estimated to migrate from rural areas to urban labour markets, industries and farms. Migration has become essential for people from regions that face frequent shortages of rainfall or suffer floods, or where population densities are high in relation to land. Areas facing unresolved social or political conflicts also become prone to high out migration. Poverty, lack of local options and the availability of work elsewhere become the trigger and the pull for rural migration respectively. During this after the their widespread of pandemic Covid-19 every one and especially migrant workers wish to go back to their home station because the workers think their lives are importantthanearningmoneyfortheir livelihood. Beside the migrant workers were scared that COVID-19 would take a couple of more years to subside and the safest thing was to be at home. Somanymigrantworkersexpresseda fear of returning their native place. The purposes of this paper are to examine the problems and challenges faced by migrant workers while travelling to their hometown and the measures taken by Government of India to ensure their safety. The present study is based on primary data collected from the sample population who moved from Chennai district of Tamilnadu to their native rural areas. Structured Questionnaire was used for survey and information were collected with the sample respondents through telephonic conversation. Chi- Square test has been employed to identify the issues and challenges of migrant workers

Effect of Biostimulants on Yield and Quality in Tomato

An experiment was conducted to study comparative efficacy of growth regulators and panchakavya on growth, yield and biochemical constitution of tomato. It is well known that panchakavya plays a vital role in organic cultivation. Hence, the present experiment was laid out to determine the effect of this biostimulant on yield and quality in tomato. Recommended dose of fertilizers recorded highest yield. Next best results were obtained by combined spray of panchakavya (3%) + salicylic acid (100ppm) + nitrobenzene (150ppm); panchakavya (3%) alone and panchakavya (3%) + salicylic acid (100ppm). Results also revealed comparable performance of panchakavya over salicylic acid and nitrobenzene indicating, that, panchakavya can be utilized as an organic component to increase yield in tomato

N-(3-Methyl­phen­yl)succinimide

In the title compound, C11H11NO2, the dihedral angle between the ring planes is 52.5 (1)°
