Transannular reactions of two parallel 1,3-butadiynes: syntheses,structures, and reactions of 1-azacyclotetradeca-3,5,10,12-tetrayne derivatives

The synthesis of 1-alkyl and 1-aryl-1-azacyclotetradeca-3,5,10,12-tetraynes was achieved in a stepwise approach. The key intermediate was 1,13-dibromotrideca-2,4,9,11-tetrayne (18). Reaction with methyl- (19 a), ethyl- (19 b), isopropyl- (19 c), n-butyl- (19 d), and tert-butylamine (19 e) as well as aniline (19 f) and p-methoxyaniline (19 g) gave the corresponding 14-membered tetraynes 20 a-20 g. The ring inversion process of 20 b was studied by variable temperature (1)H NMR spectroscopy. From these measurements a value of 10.6 kcal mol(-1) was calculated for DeltaG(not equal). X-ray investigations on single crystals of 20 b, 20 c, and 20 f revealed the axial position for the substituent at each nitrogen atom. For 20 b we encountered the chair conformation, for 20 c both chair and boat conformations, and for 20 f the boat conformation in the solid state. The reaction of 20 c with concentrated HCl in ethanol yielded 2,10-dichloro-6-isopropyl-6-azatricyclo[9.3.0.0(4,8)]tetradeca-1(11),2,4(8),9-tetraene (25 c). Compound 25 c was oxidized by 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) to 27 c. The structure of the latter was confirmed by X-ray investigations. The reaction of 20 c in aqueous HCl lead to the formation of 10-chloro-2-isopropyl-1,3,4,6,7,8-hexahydro-2H-benzo[g]isoquinolin-9-one (37 c). The structure of 37 c was verified by X-ray studies on single crystals.     

The crystal and molecular structure of the cycloadduct from an activated carbodiimide and methyl isothiocyanate

The crystal and molecular structures of the cycloadduct from isopropyl[α-(dimethylthio-carbamoyl)isopropyl]carbodiimide and methyl isothiocyanate were determined by single-crystal X-ray methods. The product was established to be 2-(1-isopropyl-3,5-dimethyl-4,6-dithioxo-hexahydro-1,3,5-triazine-2-ylidenamino)-N,N-dimethylthioisoburyramide, in which contrary to expectations based on hybridisation the heterocyclic ring adopts a boat conformation.     

Ultraviolet protection factors for clothing: an intercomparison of measurement systems

In recent years the need to standardize measurement protocols for quantifying the degree of ultraviolet radiation (UVR) protection provided by clothing has led to the introduction of a number of standards around the world. To date, these standards have specified spectral measurements of UVR transmission by clothing and fabrics. Development of a standard test method has become an important part of the testing process, and this article presents results from an intercomparison involving 10 independent testing laboratories and 11 different UVR transmission measurement instruments. In addition to comparing the measured ultraviolet protection factors (UPF), this intercomparison also incorporates detailed scan results from all 10 laboratories and highlights differences in performance of the various instruments in different wavelength regions. Careful examination of these differences can indicate where changes to the systems could be made to allow improvements both in equipment performance and in agreement of the final results. The variability in the measurements of UPF in this study suggest that the protection categories in standards may need to be broadened.

Synthesis of Aristotelia-Type Alkaloids. Part XIII. Total syntheses of (+)-makonine, (+)-aristotelinone,and (+)-11,12-didehydroaristoteline

The oxidative transformation of synthetic (+)-aristoteline ((+)- 6 ) into other metabolites which had been isolated from Aristotelia species was investigated. Thus, treatment of (+)- 6 with I₂ as the single oxidant furnished the naturally occurring indole alkaloids (+)-makonine ((+)- 9 ),(+)-aristotelinone ((+)- 11 ), or (+)-11, 12-didehydroaristoteline ((+)- 7 ) in good yields, the selectivity of the oxidation process depending on the chosen reaction conditions.     

Über die Darstellung von Di(i-propyl)thiosulfonium-Salzen

On the Preparation of Di(i-propyl)thiosulfonium Salts [1] The preparation of the mercaptosulfonium salts (i-C₃H₇)₂SSX⁺SbCl₆^? (X = H, D) and of the chlorothiosulfonium salts (i-C₃H₇)₂SSCl⁺MF₆^? (M = As, Sb) and (i-C₃H₇)₂SSSCl⁺SbCl₆^? is reported. They are formed by reaction of chlorinated or protonated (i-C₃H₇)₂S with excess H₂S or SCl₂ and S₂Cl₂. The thiosulfonium compounds are characterized by vibrational and NMR spectroscopic methods.     

Primary reaction dynamics of halorhodopsin,observed by sub-picosecond IR – vibrational spectroscopy

The primary all-trans to 13-cis chromophore isomerization of the light driven chloride pump halorhodopsin has been studied by means of transient absorption spectroscopy in the visible and mid-infrared regime at a time resolution of better than 100 and 220 fs, respectively. The picosecond vibrational dynamics are dominated by two time constants, i.e., 2 and 7.7 ps in accordance with the biphasic decay of the retinal excited electronic state and electronic ground state formation with 1.5 and 6.6 ps. The transient vibrational spectra of the participating electronic states strongly suggest the existence of two distinct S₁ populations as a result of an early branching reaction. It is shown that the 13-cis product is formed with the fast time constant, whereas the all-trans educt state is repopulated via both time constants. Concomitant protein dynamics are indicated by spectral changes on a similar time scale in the amide region.     

The Electronic Structure of Azuleno[1,2,3-cd]phenalene and Azuleno[5,6,7-cd]phenalene,a Comparison

The photoelectron (PE.) spectra of azuleno[l, 2, 3-cd]phenalene ( 1 ) and azuleno- [5,6,7-cd]phenalene( 2 ) have been recorded. The first five bands of both compounds could be assigned to transitions corresponding to removal of electrons from 4a₂, 6b₁, 5b₁, 3a₂ and 4b_l orbitals. This assignment is based mainly on a comparison between the observed ionization potentials and orbital energies calculated in a HMO and a PPP model. The UV./VIS. polarized absorption spectrum of 1 in the region 10000–45000 cm^?1 has been measured by means of the stretched film technique. The measurements were performed in polyethylene sheets at 77°K. Several bands could be assigned to π* ← π transitions calculated by a PPP-CI method. A comparison between the electronic structures of 1 and 2 is made by means of a simple HMO diagram.
