Synthesis of 1,2,4-substituted hexahydropyridazines and X-ray structural investigation of 4-hydroxyimino-2-methyl-1-phenethylhexahydropyridazine

A series of new 1,2,4-substituted hexahydropyridazines was prepared in order to evaluate qualitatively and quantitatively the role and influence of substituents on the biological activity of this system. An X-ray structural investigation of 4-hydroxyimino-2-methyl-1-phenethylhexahydropyridazine was performed. The compounds considered exhibit moderate local anesthetic, antihistaminic, and anticonvulsive activity.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Gas chromatographic system equipped with a mass detector and a selective nitrogen-phosphorous detector operating simulataneously in the analysis of pesticide residues

The possibility to perform gas chromatographic analysis using both a mass detector and a selective nitrogen-phosphorous detector will enable highly sensitive analytical results and an optimal identification reliability. In this work we describe an easily workable technical solution, which has been accomplished in our laboratory and the application of the above system to analytical procedures for the detection and determination of nitrogenous herbicides in drinking water and phosphorylated pesticides in agricultural products is discussed.     

Synthesis ofS-(+)-hydroprene

A novel path toS-(+)-hydroprene (1) starting from the technical gradeS-(+)-dihydromyrcene (2, e.e. 50%) is proposed. The latter was selectively transformed intoS-3,7-dimethyloctanal (5) in three steps including hydroalumination. The reactions of5 with allyl- or methallylmagnesium chloride followed, respectively, either by oxygenation in the presence of PdCl₂/CuCl or by ozonolysis, affordS,E-6,10-dimethyl-3-undecen-2-one (7) which was treated with ethoxyethynylmagnesium bromide to give the title juvenile hormone analogue in 23% overall yield.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis of alkyl-substituted phosphorus phthalocyanines and triazatetrabenzocorroles

New alkyl-substituted phosphorus phthalocyanines and triazatetrabenzocorroles were synthesized. The structures of these complexes were confirmed by ¹H, ¹³C, and ³¹P NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and electronic absorption spectroscopy. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Basicity and structure of 5-hydroxybenzimidazoles in nitromethane

Examination of the acid-base properties of 5-hydroxybenzimidazoles has shown them to exist in nitromethane as the 5-hydroxy-tautomers. Substituents in the 2-position have a predominantly inductive effect on the basicity of the 3-nitrogen, rationalized as in other nitrogen heterocycles by the proximity of the substituents to the reaction center.N.

Splitless injection of up to hundreds of microliters of liquid samples in capillary GC: Part II,experimental results

Sample evaporation in splitless injection of large volumes is rapid: depending on the experiment, results indicate that 200 μl of hexane, for instance, evaporates in 2–10 s, producing vapor at a rate of many hundreds of milliliters per minute. A 60 × 4 mm packed bed of 20–35 mesh Tenax TA enabled injection of 200 μl volumes of all solvents tested, and even 1 ml injections were possible provided they were performed over a period of 30 s. Retention of volatile sample components depends on the sample solvent, the injection volume, and the injection speed, but only little on the injector temperature. Losses of n-tridecane varied from hardly 15 % (when dissolved in pentane) to ca 60 % (ethyl acetate); losses of n-heptadecane were usually below 20 %. The column temperature during injection should be at least ca 20–30°C above the standard solvent boiling point.     

Correlation of the position of the bond functions in H-X with electronegativity

S type Gaussian bond functions are optimized for HF, H₂O, NH₃, and CH₄. The optimization is carried out with respect to the exponent and position in the H-X bond. The position is found to correlate well with the electronegativity of Pauling and Allred-Rochow.
