Reissert compound studies. XXXVI. Observations on 1,7-, 4,6-, 4,7-, and 1,10-phenanthrolines

Reissert compounds have been prepared from 1,7-, 4,6-, and 4,7-phenanthrolines. In the case of 4,7-phenanthroline, both mono- and di-Reissert compounds have been prepared. A number of Reissert analogs have also been prepared in this series. 1,10-Phenanthroline fails to give a Reissert compound.     

Pyrolysis of textile wastes: I. Kinetics and yields

Thermal behavior of textile waste was studied by thermogravimetry at different heating rates and also by semi-batch pyrolysis. It was shown that the onset temperature of mass loss is within 104–156 °C and the final reaction temperature is within 423–500 °C. The average mass loss is 89.5%. There are three DTG peaks located at the temperature ranges of 135–309, 276–394 and 374–500 °C, respectively. The first two might be associated with either with decomposition of the hemicellulose and cellulose or with different processes of cellulose decomposition. The third peak is possibly associated to a synthetic polymer. At a temperature of 460 °C, the expected amount of volatiles of this waste is within 85–89%. The kinetic parameters of the individual degradation processes were determined by using a parallel model. Their dependence on the heating rate was also established. The pyrolysis rate is considered as the sum of the three reaction rates. The pyrolysis in a batch reactor at 700 °C and nitrogen flow of 60 ml/min produces 72 wt.% of oil, 13.5 wt.% of gas and 12.5 wt.% of char. The kinetic parameters of the first peak do not vary with heating rate, while those of the second and the third peak increase and decrease, respectively, with an increasing heating rate, proving the existence of complex reaction mechanisms for both cases.

Indole derivatives. 136. 4-, 5-, 6-, and 7-Nitro-3-indolesulfonic chlorides and sulfonamides

The reaction of nitroindoles with chlorosulfonic acid in the presence of sodium sulfate was used to synthesize 4-, 5-, 6-, and 7-nitroindole-3-sulfonyl chlorides. Under the influence of ammonia and several amines these compounds were convened to nitroindole-3-sulfonamides which were reduced with hydrazine hydrate in the presence of Raney nickel to the corresponding amines.See [1] for Communication 135.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1341–1345, October, 1990.     

Regioisomerism in the Ritter reaction. 1. Synthesis of 3,3,5,6,7-, 3,3,6,7,8-, 3,3,5,7,8-, and 3,3,5,6,8-pentamethyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinolines from 1,2,3- and 1,2,4-trimethylbenzenes

Reactions of 1,2,3- or 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene with isobutyraldehyde and ethyl cyanoacetate (ECA) or reactions of the corresponding 1-aryl-2-methylpropan-1-ols with ECA afforded isomeric 3,3,5,6,7-, 3,3,6,7,8-, 3,3,5,7,8-, and 3,3,5,6,8-pentamethyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinolines. Isomerization is explained as the ring opening of a spiran intermediate in two possible ways followed by the Jacobsen rearrangement.     

Heterogeneous-catalytic fischer reaction. 13. Catalytic synthesis of 4-, 5-, 6-, and 7-methoxyindoles

Methoxy-substituted acetaldehyde phenylhydrazones were cyclized in the vapor phase on a GIPKh-115 catalyst to give 4-, 5-, 6-, and 7-methoxyindoles. 5-Methoxyindole was obtained in 50% yield, 4- and 6-methoxyindoles were obtained in 85% yield, and 7-methoxyindole was obtained in 45% yield.See [1] for Communication 12.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1054–1055, August, 1982.     

Application of electrospray mass spectrometry in the detection and determination of Remazol textile dyes.

The electrospray (ES) behaviour of selected Remazol textile dyes, their hydrolysis products and the latters' reaction, following elution from a strong anion-exchange cartridge, with 30% concentrated HCl in MeOH, is studied and applied to the direct analysis of dye containing effluent. For unambiguous identification and determination of these textile dyes in effluents, it is necessary to resort to ES utilising MS-MS and MS3. Further, a tabular review of recent applications of HPLC-ES-MS and, to a lesser extent, CE-ES-MS with reference to drug and pesticide analysis is presented.
