Solubilization of lanthanide ions by cyclodextrins in basic aqueous solutions

Cyclodextrins form complexes with lanthanide ions in basic aqueous solutions. This complex formation in basic solution dramatically enhances the solubility of lanthanide ions, which are otherwise insoluble due to the formation of hydroxide gels. Solutions of the -cyclodextrin-Ce³⁺ complex effectively hydrolyze 2-deoxyadenosine-5-monophosphate to 2-deoxyadenosine.     

Study of furan compounds

Research on synthesis of polycyclic spirans of the 1, 6-dioxaspiro-[4, 4]nonane group is continued. Electrolysis of methanol solutions of 2-furylcyclopentanol, 2-(5-methyl-furfuryl)cyclopentanol, and 2-furfuryl-1-indanol, gives, by intramolecular alkoxylation, spiro{perhydrocyclopenta[b]furan-2, 2-(5dihydrofuran)}, spiro{perhydrocyclopenta[b]furan-2, 2-(5-methoxy-5-methyl-2, 5-dihydrofuran)}, and spiro{2, 3, 3a, 8b-tetrahydro-4H-indeno[1, 2-b]furan-2, 2-(5-methoxy-2, 5-dihydrofuran)}, hitherto undescribed in the literature. Depending on the conditions, catalytic hydrogenation of these gives: spiro{perhydiocyclopenta[b]furan-2, 2-(5-methoxytetrahydrofuran)}, spiro{2, 3a, 8b-tetrahydro-4H-indeno[1, 2-b]furan-2, 2-(5-methoxytetrahydrofuran)}, spiro{perhydrocyclopenta[b]furan-2, 2-tetrahydrofuran}, and spiro{2, 3, 3a, 8b-tetrahydro-4H-indeno[1, 2-b]furan-2, 2-tetrahydrofuran}.For Part XXXI see [1].     

Ruthenium(III) ion complexes with nucleotides

Summary Complexes of adenosine-5-monophosphate (5-AMP), guanosine-5-monophosphate (5-GMP), inosine-5-monophosphate (5-IMP) and cytidine-5-monophosphate (5-CMP) with ruthenium trichloride have been prepared and studied by i.r. spectroscopy, diffuse reflectance spectra and magnetochemical measurements.All complexes are probably polymeric as indicated by their insolubility in polar solvents.The i.r. spectra suggest that the ruthenium(III) ion interacts with the ligands through N(7) of the purine mononucleotides and through N(3) of the pyrimidine mononucleotide from one side and with the phosphate group of another mononucleotide molecule from another side. The formation of hydrogen bonds reinforces the interaction.The complexes have normal magnetic moments close to the spin-only value. The electronic spectra confirm their octahedral structure.

New chiral acyclic analogs of 2′-deoxynucleosides

Convenient methods for the synthesis of chiral 2,3-seco-2-deoxynucleosides were developed. An isopropylidene protective group was used to block the 3,5-hydroxy groups in 2,3-seco-uridine. Conversion of the hydroxymethyl group to a methyl group was accomplished by chlorination with a mixture of CCl₄ and Ph₃P with subsequent reduction with n-Bu₃SnH. 2,3-seco-2-Deoxyuridine was obtained after deacetonation. The (S) enantiomer was similarly synthesized starting from 1-(-D-arabinofuranosyl)uracil. 3-O-tert-Butyldimethylsilyl-5-O-(p-monomethoxytrityl)-2,3-seco-2-deoxyuridine, which has optically active centers at C₍₁₎ and C₍₄₎, was also synthesized.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 822–826, June, 1988.The authors thank Professor M. Ya. Karpeiskii for his constant interest in this research.     

Reaction of 2,2-bis(4′-hydroxy-3′-N,N-diethylaminomethylphenyl) propane with triethyl phosphite

Conclusions The reaction of 2,2-bis(4-hydroxy-3-N,N-diethylaminomethylphenyl)propane with triethyl phosphite gave 2,2-bis(4-ethoxy-3-diethylphosphonomethylphenyl)propane via the intermediate formation of a compound with a pentacovalent phosphorus atom. In the presence of acetic acid the reaction leads to 2,2-bis(4-hydroxy-3-diethylphosphonomethylphenyl)propane.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 7, pp. 1621–1624, July, 1978.     

Synthesis and study of L-arabinopyranosides of 5- and 6-nitroindoles

Condensation of 5- or 6-nitroindoline with L-arabinose gave 1--L-arabinopyranosyl-5 (or 6)-nitroindolines, which, after acetylation, dehydrogenation, and removal of the protective groups, are converted to 1--L-arabinopyranosyl-5(or 6)-nitroindoles and then to the corresponding amino derivatives. 1--L-Arabinopyranosyl-6-nitro-3-bromo-(iodo)indoles were obtained. The selective 2-O- and 3-O-deacetylation of 1-(2, 3, 4-tri-O-acetyl)--L-arabinopyranosyl-6-nitroindole was accomplished.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 2, pp. 224–229, February, 1979.     

Pyrimidines. 70. Relative reactivities of the chlorine atoms of 2,2′,4-trichloro-4′,5-dipyrimidinyl in its reaction with piperidine

2,2,4-Trichloro-6-phenyl-4,5-dipyrimidinyl, for which nucleophilic substitution with piperdine under various conditions was studied, was obtained from 2,2,4-trioxo-6-phenyl-1, 1,2,2,3,4-hexahydro-4,5-dipyrimidinyl. It is shown that there is an appreciable difference in the rates of substitution of the first, second, and third chlorine atoms, and this made it possible to obtain reaction products that contain one, two, and three piperidino groups. The chlorine atom in the 4 position is replaced initially, after which the chlorine atom in the 2 position undergoes substitution. The structures of the compounds were proved by chemical transformations and analysis of the PMR spectra.See [1] for communication 69.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 821–826, June, 1979.

Synthesis of some 5′-O-amino acid derivatives of uridine as potential inhibitors ofUDP-glucuronosyltransferase

Summary In an attempt to develop potential inhibitors ofUDP-glucuronosyltransferase, some 5-O-amino acid derivatives of uridine were synthesized. N-protectedL-amino acids were coupled at the 5-O-position of 2,3-O-isopropylideneuridine by esterification employing the method of symmetrical anhydrides in presence of 4-dimethylaminopyridine, 5-O-(N-benzyloxycarbonyl-O-tert.butyl-L-threonl)-23-O-isopropylideneuridine (1), 5-O-(N-tert.butyloxycarbonyl-O-benzyl-L-seryl)-2,3-O-isopropylideneuridine and (2), 5-O-(N-tert.butyloxycarbonyl-L-valyl)-2,3-O-isopropylideneuridine (3), and 5-O-(N-tert.butyloxycarbonyl-L-valyl)-2,3-O-isopropylideneuridine (4) were obtained in good yield after column chromatography on silica gel. The treatment of2 withTFA/CH₂Cl₂ (6:1) at room temperature for 30 min led to a selective removal of theBoc group without deblocking of the 2,3-O-isopropylidene group of uridine. Treatment of2 withTFA/H₂O (5:1) at room temperature for 1 h, however, released bothBoc and 2,3-isopropylidene groups. TheZ group of1 was deprotected by catalytic hydrogenolysis over 10% Pd/C/ammonium formate.

Zusammenfassung In einem Versuch, potentielle Inhibitoren derUDP-Glukuronosyl-Transferase zu entwickeln, wurden einige 5-O-Aminosäurederivate des Uridins synthetisiert. N-GeschützteL-Aminosäuren wurden durch Veresterung mit der 5-O-Position des 2,3-isopropylidenuridins gekuppelt (Methode der symmetrischen Anhydride in der Gegenwart von 5-Dimethylaminopyridin). Solcherweise wurden 5-O-(N-Benzyloxycarbonyl-O-tert.butyl-L-threonly)-2,3-O-isopropylidenuridin (1), 5-O-(N-tert.Butyloxycarbonyl-O-benzyl-L-seryl)-2,3-O-isopropylidenuridin (2), 5-O-(N-tert.Butyloxycarbonyl-L-leucyl)-2,3-O-isopropylidenuridin (3) und 5-O-(N-tert.Butyloxycarbonyl-L-valyl)-2,3-O-isopropylidenuridine (4) nach Säulenchromatographie (Kieselgel) in guter Ausbeute hergestellt. Die Behandlung von2 mitTFA/CH₂Cl₂ (6:1) bei Zimmertemperatur (30 min) führte zu einer selektiven Abspaltung derBoc-Gruppe ohne Deblockierung der 2,3-O-Isopropylidengruppe des Uridins. Eine Behandlung von2 mitTFA/H₂O (5:1) bei Zimmertemperatur für 1 Stunde führte hingegen zur Abspaltung sowohl derBoc als auch der 2,3-O-Isopropylidengruppe. DieZ-Gruppe von1 wurde durch katalytische Hydrogenolyse auf 10% Pd/C/Ammoniumformiat abgespalten.

Kinetics of the alkaline hydrolysis of flavonoid glycosides

Summary 1. In a study of the kinetics of the alkaline hydrolysis of flavone glycosides it has been found that derivatives of 3,3,4,5,7-pentahydroxyflavone hydrolyze faster than derivatives of 3,4,5,7-tetrahydroxyflavone and of 3,4,5,7-tetrahydroxy-3-methoxyflavone.2. In the hydrolysis of diglycosides of 3,3,4,5,7-pentahydroxyflavones the maximum amount of intermediate product is formed after 2 min (3,4,5,7-tetrahydroxyflavone glycoside), and in the case of 3,4,5,7-tetrahydroxy-3-methoxyflavone glycosides after 120–150 min.I.
