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.     

Coumarins of Smyrniopsis aucheri

Chemical transformations and spectral characteristics have enabled us to establish the structure and configurations of three coumarins: (+)-2,2-dimethyl-3-hydroxy-3,4-dihydropyrano(5,6:6,7)coumarin (I); (+)-4-hydroxy-5-(1-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)-4,5-dihydrofuro(2,3:6,7)coumarin (II); and (+)-4-hydroxy-5-(1-glucopyranosyloxy-1-methylethyl)-4,5-dihydrofuro(2,3:6,7)-coumarin (III) isolated from the roots ofSmyrnopsis aucheri Karjag. This is the first time that these compounds, which have been called smyrinol, smyrindiol, and smyrindioloside, have been detected in nature.Institute of Chemistry of Plant Substances, Uzbekistan Republic Academy of Sciences, Tashkent.

Effects of EPDM rubber on crystallization behaviour and morphology of iPP/HDPE blend

The effects of EPDM rubber on the crystallization behaviour of isotactic polypropylene (iPP) in the ternary iPP/HDPE/EPDM blends were studied by means of DSC and X-ray diffraction. Analysis of the crystallization exotherm peaks in terms of crystallization nucleation and growth rates and crystallinity revealed variations in the morphology of the iPP component in the blends as a function of the EPDM content. The DSC and X-ray diffraction results showed that the overall crystallinity decreased as the weight percentage of EPDM was increased in the iPP/HDPE blends.The morphology of these blends was studied by scanning electron microscopy, which revealed a random distribution of EPDM throughout the iPP matrix. The size and number of these rubber particles increased with increase of the EPDM weight percentage in the ternary iPP/HDPE/EPDM blends. The probable existence of composite inclusions of EPDM-HDPE in an iPP matrix is suggested.

Zusammenfassung Die Effekte von EPDM-Kautschuk auf das Kristallisationsverhalten von isotaktischem Polypropylen (iPP) in den ternären Gemischen iPP/HDPE/EPDM wurden mittels DSC und Röntgendiffraktometrie untersucht. Die Analyse der exothermen Kristallisationspeaks mit Hinblick auf die Kristallisationskeimbildung und die Geschwindigkeit des Kristallwachstums und die Kristallinität deuten auf morphologische Varianten der iPP-Komponente in den Gemischen in Abhängigkeit vom EPDM-Gehalt hin. Die durch DSC und Röntgendiffraktometrie erhaltenen Ergebnisse zeigen, daß die Kristallinität mit steigendem Gehalt an EPDM in den iPP/HDPE-Gemischen abnimmt. Die Morphologie dieser Gemische wurde durch Scanningelektronenmikroskopie untersucht. Es wurde eine random-Verteilung des EPDM in der iPP-Matrix festgestellt. Größe und Zahl dieser Kautschukpartikel nehmen mit zunehmendem EPDM-Gewichtsanteil in den ternären iPP/HDPE/EPDM-Gemischen zu. Auf die wahrscheinliche Existenz von EPDM/HDPE-Einschlüssen in einer iPP-Matrix wird hingewiesen.

Catalytic properties of dinuclear copper(II) complexes in the oxidation of two electron donors by dioxygen

Summary Dinuclear copper(II) complexes of differing magnetic and redox properties derived from various dinucleating ligands were investigated for their catalytic activity in the oxidation of 3,5-di-t-butylcatechol (3,5-DTBC) and ascorbic acid by oxygen. Poor activity was exhibited by di--hydroxocopper(II) complexes of 2,2-bypyridyl, 1,10-phenanthroline and N,N,N,N-tetramethylethylenediamine(TMEDA). Dicopper(II) complexes of Schiff base ligands, obtained from 2,6-diformyl-4-methylphenol and diamines, are relatively less active compared with ligands derived from monoamines. The difference is explained on the basis of redox behaviour.
