Pyrilocyanines. 36.α-thienyl substituted pyrilo- and thiopyrilocyanines

Symmetrical and nonsymmetrical 2,6- (and 4,6-)-di--thienyl substituted - and -pyrilo- and thiopyrilocyanines have been synthesized. The effect of changing the phenyl groups for -thienyl on the electronic absorption spectral parameters of the dyes obtained is discussed. It was found that such a change leads to a decrease in the effective length and increase in the electron donor ability of the hetero fragments containing these groups. The more intense coloring of the thienyl substituted dyes is due to interaction of the polymethine and quasilocal electronic transitions.For Communication 35 see [1].Institute of Organic Chemistry, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine Kiev 253660.

Binary and Ternary Complexes Between Lauryl Hexaoxyethylene, Benzoate and Cyclodextrin. Part II. β-CD

The characterization of binary and ternary complexes of benzoate, lauryl hexaoxyethylene (C₁₂E₆) and -CD is presented. The complexation equilibrium was characterized by UV-Vis spectrophotometry, titration microcalorimetry, capillary electrophoresis, and 2D ROESY ¹H-NMR. Results suggested that -CD forms one complex with C₁₂E₆in the stoichiometric ratio of -CD : C₁₂E₆1.5 : 1, with a stability constant 1.3 × 10⁵ M^-1.5. The 2-D ROESY ¹H-NMR spectrum indicated that C₁₂E₆is included inside the -CD cavity. The primary binding site of C₁₂E₆ is on the lauryl subunit of this molecule. Analogous to a previously reported study of -CD, the combination of -CD and C₁₂E₆precipitated from the solution. Addition of benzoate seemed to dissolve the precipitate and nearly doubled the apparent stability constant of the complex. Results from the various techniques supported formation of ternary complexes between -CD, C₁₂E₆, and benzoate.     

Binary and Ternary Complexes Between Lauryl Hexaoxyethylene, Benzoate and Cyclodextrin. Part I. α-CD

The characterization of binary and ternary complexes of benzoate, lauryl hexaoxyethylene (C₁₂E₆) and -CD is presented. Complexation was characterized by capillary zone electrophoresis and titration microcalorimetry. These techniques suggested that -CD formed two qualitatively different complexes with C₁₂E₆. The stoichiometric ratio of -CD : C₁₂E₆ in the individual complexes was 1 : 1 and 1.4 : 1, with stability constants of2.0 × 10³ M^-1 and 6.4 × 10⁵ M^-1.4, respectively. At higher concentrations of interacting species (10 mM), a precipitate formed. Addition of benzoate seemed to prevent precipitate formation and appeared to increase the stability constants of both binary complexes. Both techniques also indicated formation of ternary complexes between -CD, C₁₂E₆ and benzoate.     

Donor-Acceptor Complexes in Copolymerization. XVI. NMR Analyses of Alternating and Random Copolymers of Styrene and α-Methylstyrene with Acrylonitrile and Methacrylonitrile

An NMR investigation was carried out on random and alternating copolymers of acrylonitrile (AN) with a-methylstyrene (MS) and methacrylonitrile (MAN) with α-methylstyrene and styrene (S). The alternating MS-AN copolymer, prepared by complexation with AlEti_1-5Cl_1-5, was found to have a predominantly coisotactic configuration which was attributed to the interaction between the CH₃ and CN groups. The cotacticity of the alternating copolymer was found to be independent of the temperature of polymerization and the amount of AlEt_1-5Cl_1-5 used for complexation. The NMR spectra of random MS-AN copolymers of varying compositions indicated a high value (0.85) for the coisotacticity probability parameter (σ). The equimolar random MS-AN copolymer was also found to have essentially alternating sequences which was attributed to their low reactivity ratios. The equimolar alternating MS-MAN copolymer was found to have a random stereochemical configuration in which the coisotactic placement was slightly preferrred over the cosyndiotactic placement. The NMR spectrum of the equimolar free radical initiated MS-MAN copolymer lacked the fine structure observed in the spectrum of the alternating copolymer which was attributed to the presence of other sequences. The equimolar alternating S-MAN copolymer was found to have a high coisotactic configuration similar to that observed in the MS-AN copolymer. The equimolar free radical initiated S-MAN copolymer had a random sequence distribution.     

Modifications based on coumarins. II. Synthesis ofα-monoglycerides of karatavic and galbanic acids and their phosphates

The synthesis has been performed of -monoglyceride derivatives of coumarins — karatavic and galbanic acids and their modified derivatives — phosphates. The structures of the compounds have been confirmed by IR, UV, PMR, and¹³C and³¹P NMR spectroscopies.A. B.

Identification and Quantitative Analysis of Nucleosides and Nucleobases in Aqueous Extracts of Fritillaria Cirrhosa D. Don. Using HPLC–DAD and HPLC-ESI-MS

Bulbus Fritillariae cirrhosae is the most widely used medicinal herb for antitussive and apophlegmatic in China and commonly prepared as a water decoction. For clarifying the water-soluble components in Fritillaria cirrhosa D. Don., a simple and sensitive method was developed using high performance liquid chromatography coupled with a photodiode array detector (HPLC-DAD) and an electrospray ionization mass spectrometer (HPLC-ESI/MS) for the quantitative determination and identification of 10 nucleosides and nucleobases. Of the 10 compounds, two (2-deoxyadenosine and hypoxanthine) were identified and determined in F. cirrhosa for the first time. The 10 compounds were separated using a Zorbax SB-Aq column with a gradient elution of methanol and water. All the calibration curves showed good linearity (r² ≥ 0.9991). The recoveries were between 97.7% and 103.5%. The method was validated with respect to precision, repeatability and accuracy, and was successfully applied to the simultaneous determination of the 10 analytes in 24 batches of F. cirrhosa, collected from different parts of China. This report provided a firm basis for clarifying the pharmacological effect and comprehensively evaluating the quality of F. cirrhosa and related preparations.
