Structure of N-(1-silatranylmethyl) and N-(trimethoxysilyl-methyl) derivatives of nitrogen-containing heterocycles according to data of NMR, IR, and UV spectroscopy

The ¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁵N, and ²⁹Si NMR, IR, and UV spectra of N-(1-silatranylmethyl) and N-(trimethoxysilylmethyl) derivatives of nitrogen heterocycles have been studied. The dependence and interrelation of the chemical shifts of ²⁹Si and ¹⁵N nuclei of the silatranyl group in the spectra of N-(1-silatranylmethyl)-substituted nitrogen heterocycles are determined by the nature of the heterocyclic system. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1857–1865, December, 2006.     

Esr and polarography of nitroazoles. 4. Polarographic study of nitrobenzimidazoles

The electrochemical reduction of 2-substituted 5(6)-benzimidazoles has been studied with the aid of classical polarography and cyclic voltammetry in acetonitrile. The influence of the substituents in position 2 on the magnitudes of the half-wave potentials of the first stage is exerted by induction and resonance mechanisms with approximately the same contributions, and that on the magnitudes of the half-wave potentials of the second stage predominantly by the resonance mechanism. The possibilities of taking the radical-stabilizing factor into account in the correlations are discussed. In order to study the 2-substituted 5(6)-nitrobenzimidazole series, their pK _a values in acetonitrile have been determined by potentiometric titration.For communication 3, see [1].Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 9, pp. 1246–1251, September, 1984.     

Cyanosilylation of α-butylthioacrolein

Cyanosilylation of α-butylthioacrolein with trimethylsilyl cyanide occurs as 1,2-addition. Concurrent rapid dimerization of α-butylthioacrolein occurred both in the presence and in the absence of H₂PtCl₆·6H₂O as a catalyst to give 2,5-dibutylthio-2,3-dihydro-4H-pyran-2-carbaldehyde, whose cyanosilylation afforded the corresponding cyanohydrin. The latter is prone to retrodiene degradation upon heating. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 7, pp. 1418–1420, July, 1998.     

EPR spectroscopy and polarography of nitroazoles. 3. Nitropyrazoles

The results of an EPR investigation are presented with polarographs of electrochemical excitation of nitropyrazoles in acetonitrile. It is shown that 3- and 4-nitropyrazoles are excited in two single-electron stages with formation of dianion radicals. Upon excitation, N-alkylnitropyrazoles form stable anion radicals. 1-Nitro- and 1,4-dinitropyrazoles are excited upon splitting off of the NO₂ anion. Excitation potentials of the nitropyrazoles and hyperfine interaction constants for the corresponding ion radicals are given.See [1] for Communication 2.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 523–527, April, 1982.     

Disordering and Electronic State of Cobalt Ions in Mechanochemically Synthesized LiCoO2

Mechanical activation (MA) combined with heat treatment at moderate temperatures was used to prepare disordered and highly dispersed LiCoO₂ starting from the mixtures of various cobalt precursors (CoOOH, Co(OH)₂, and Co) and LiOH. X-ray powder diffraction and IR spectroscopy were used to investigate the phase composition and the crystal structure of as-prepared samples, while the electronic state of cobalt ions was characterized by diffuse reflectance electron spectroscopy. MA of the LiOH+CoOOH mixture led to the formation of LT-LiCoO₂ with a cubic spinel-related structure. Heat treatment at 600°C of the latter resulted in the formation of HT-LiCoO₂ with a hexagonal layered structure similar to ceramic LiCoO₂. However, as-prepared HT-LiCoO₂ is characterized by Co³⁺O₆ octahedra less perfect than those of ceramic LiCoO₂. All MA-LiCoO₂ samples are exclusively described by localized d electrons.     

Extractive substances ofLarix dahurica

Summary The quantitative determination of quercetin and dihydroquercetin in the total flavonoids ofLatrix dahurica has been effected by the use of thin-layer chromatography on Kapron for separating the mixture with subsequent elution of the spots and colorimetry of the eluates obtained. The methanol-dimethylformamide (1:1) system was used as the eluate. It has been found that the flavonoids of the heartwood ofLatrix dahurica contain a predominating amount, 69% of dihydroquercetin, the amount of quercetin being 11%.Khimiya Prirodnykh Soedinenii, Vol. 3, No. 5, pp. 298–301, 1967     

Synthesis and Structure of 1- and 2-Isomers of (Trimethoxysilylmethyl) and (Silatranylmethyl)benzotriazole

We have synthesized 1- and 2-(trimethylsilylmethyl)- and 1- and 2-(trimethoxysilylmethyl)benzotriazoles by reaction of 1,2,3-benzotriazolylsodium with trimethyl- or trimethoxy(chloromethyl)silane. We obtained 1- and 2-(silatranylmethyl)benzotriazoles by transesterification of the latter with triethanolamine.     

AM1 study of photoelectron spectra.

The -orbital structure of the monomeric form of the 2,2,4,6-tetrachloro-2,2-dihydro-1,5,2-diazaphosphorinine has been studied by photoelectron spectroscopy and using quantum-chemical calculations by the semiempirical AM1 method. It has been concluded that the electronic and energy characteristics of four higher -MOs (frontier and three next orbitals) of this compound may be interpreted in terms of semipolar bonds formed by three atoms (C, P, and N). For describing two low-lying -MOs of the ⁴,⁵-phosphorine studied, it is necessary to take into account the --interaction.For Part 8, see Ref. 1.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Organosilicon compounds containing carbofunctional biguanidine group

The reaction of triethoxysilylpropylamine (AGM-9) with dicyanodiamide was studied. The condensation of AGM-9 with dicyanodiamide occurs in the presence of a catalytic amount of CuCl₂ at 125–145°C within 5–24 h; it involves both the amino group of AGM-9 and ethoxy substituents at the Si atoms, with an unusual exchange of a Si-O bond for a Si-N bond. The final reaction product is 1-N-(3-triethoxysilylpropyl)-2-N-[3-aminopropylsilyl(diethoxy)]biguanidine. Its hydrolytic polycondensation yields an organosilicon polymer, a polycondensate of AGM-9 with 1-N-(3-triethoxysilylpropyl)biguanidine, which is a highly efficient sorbent for Ag(I) (static sorption capacity 544 mg g^?1).
