A novel simple pyrolytic approach towards anhydronucleosides

An interesting novel gas phase thermal intramolecular substitution reaction was discovered, which led to the conversion of the 2-β-d-N-glucosyl, 2-β-d-N-galactosyl and 2-β-d-N-ribosyl derivatives of 3-thioxo-2,3-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-ones into their corresponding 3,2′-anhydro-β-d-mannosyl, 3,2′-anhydro-β-d-talosyl and 3,2′-anhydro-β-d-arabinosyl derivatives. The structures of these new anhydroglycosyls were determined by NMR experiments and by X-ray crystallography.     

Gas-phase thermolysis of thieno[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazines. Interesting routes towards heterocyclic ring systems

Gas-phase thermolysis of thieno[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazines gave benzonitrile, isothiazole, pyrimidine, [1]benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine and thieno[3,2-d]thiazole derivatives. A mechanism of these pyrolytic transformation was proposed. Two new and efficient syntheses of the starting thieno[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazines were reported.     

Die Veresterungsgeschwindigkeiten der Monoaminobenzoesäuren und der 1- und 2-Pyridinkarbonsäuren in Glykol und Glyzerin

Zusammenfassung Es werden die Veresterungsgeschwindigkeiten der Monoaminobenzoesäuren und der 1- und 2-Pyridinkarbonsäuren bei 25° mit Chlorwasserstoff als Katalysator sowohl in wasserfreiem als auch in wasserhaltigem Glykol und in wasserfreiem Glyzerin gemessen, die derm- und derp-Aminobenzoesäure und der 2-Pyridinkarbonsäure (Nikotinsäure) auch in wasserhaltigem Glyzerin. Die Abhängigkeit der monomolekularen Geschwindigkeitskonstanten vom Wassergehalt (w) des Mediums und dem Überschuß der Konzentration der Salzsäure über die der organischen Säure, bzw. ihres Esters (C) wird für die drei zuletzt genannten Säuren durch Formeln dargestellt. Diese Geschwindigkeitskonstanten nehmen durchwegs sowohl in wasserfreiem als auch in wasserhaltigem Glykol und Glyzerin nicht nur rascher als die Konzentration der gesamten Salzsäure, sondern auch als die des obigen Überschusses, d. h. der freien Salzsäure, zu.FürC=1/3 sind beiw=0.03 die Geschwindigkeitskonstanten derm- und derp-Aminobenzoesäure und der Nikotinsäure in Äthylalkohol um 20–30 %, die der Anthranilsäure um 70%, die der Pikolinsäure um 130% größer als in Glykol, beiw=0.7 dagegen die der drei ersteren Säuren um 35–50% kleiner.In Glykol sind die Konstanten bei der Anthranilsäure und den Pyridinkarbonsäuren kleiner als in Glyzerin, bei den übrigen wie bei den früher untersuchten Säuren aber größer.Die sterische Wirkung der Aminogruppe in Orthostellung ist in Glykol größer, in Glyzerin kleiner als in Äthylalkohol.Unter gleichen Bedingungen Bind die Konstanten der Veresterungsgeschwindigkeit der Nikotinsäure in Glykol und Glyzerin etwa viermal, in Äthylalkohol nur etwa zweimal größer als die der Pikolinsäure.     

Direct evidence for the gas phase thermal polymerization of styrene. Determination of the initiation mechanism and structures of the early oligomers by ion mobility

We present here direct evidence for the thermal self-initiated polymerization of styrene in the gas phase and establish that the initiation process proceeds via essentially the same mechanism (the Mayo mechanism) as in condensed phase polymerization. Furthermore, we provide structural identifications of the dimers and trimers formed in the gas phase.     

Physical,chemical and biological studies on transition metal complexes of chelating tridentate ligand

Summary The interaction of 1-benzoin-4-phenylthiosemicarbazone (H₂ BPS) with some transition metal ions has been investigated. The ligand can function as a tridentate chelating agent, giving M(HBPS)₂ and M(BPS). Potentiometric studies proved that the mechanism of chelation is based on hydrogen ion liberation. Spectral studies in solution show that the ligand could be used for the microdetermination of Cu^IIions. On the basis of magnetic and spectral data, an octahedral structure is proposed for the Co^II and Ni^II complexes and a square-planar structure for the Cu^II complex. The corrosion inhibition of aluminium in Cl₃CCO₂H using H₂BPS is studied. The electrical conductivity of H₂BPS and of its complexes have been measured. The ligand shows an activation energy in the range of semiconducting materials. The antimicrobial activity of all compounds has also been demonstrated.     

Enhanced post-source decay and cross-ring fragmentation of oligosaccharides facilitated by conversion to amino derivatives

Post-source decay (PSD) fragmentation of chemically or enzymatically produced aminoglycans has been evaluated through matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. Conversion of native glycans to their respective aminoglycan derivatives improved detection sensitivity of the usual fragments and promoted cross-ring fragmentation of linear oligosaccharides, facilitating linkage recognition. The cross-ring fragmentations for both dextrin and dextran oligosaccharides were not limited to the reducing-end glucose moiety, as they were extended throughout the entire molecule. When the amino group was generated for N-glycans derived from three different glycoproteins, an enhancement of PSD was observed, without a significant extent of cross-ring fragmentation.     

Stepwise hydration and multibody deprotonation with steep negative temperature dependence in the benzene.+ -water system

We studied the stepwise hydration and solvent-mediated deprotonation of the benzene*+ cation (Bz*+) and found several unusual features. The solvent binding energies DeltaH on-1,n for the reactions Bz*+(H2O)n-1 + H2O --> Bz*+(H2O)n are nearly constant at 9 +/- 1 kcal mol-1 for n = 1 to 8. We observed a remarkable sudden decrease in the entropy of association accompanying the formation of Bz*+(H2O)7 and Bz*+(H2O)8, indicating strong orientational restraint in the hydration shells of these clusters consistent with the formation of cagelike structures. We observed the size-dependent deprotonation of Bz*+ in a cooperative multibody process, where n H2O molecules (n >/= 4) can remove a proton from Bz*+ to form protonated water clusters. We measured, for the first time, the temperature dependence of such a process and found a negative temperature coefficient of a magnitude unprecedented in any chemical reaction, of the form k = AT-67+/- 4, or in an Arrhenius form having an activation energy of -34 +/- 1 kcal mol-1. The temperature effect may be explained by Bz*+ and four H2O molecules needing to be assembled from gas-phase components to form the reactive species. Such large temperature effects may be therefore general in solvent cluster-mediated reactions.     

Emulsion polymerization of vinyl acetate initiated by potassium persulfate-cyclohexanone sodium bisulfite redox pair system

The emulsion polymerization of vinyl acetate using potassium persulfate and cyclohexanone sodium bisulfite as redox pair initiation system was studied. The rate of polymerization, maximum conversion, and the number of polymer particles produced were found to change with redox initiator, monomer and emulsifier concentrations, and temperature variation. The rate of polymerization was found to be dependent on the initiator, the monomer, and the emulsifier concentrations to the 0.88, 0.22, and 0.20 powers, respectively. The K₂S₂O₈–NaHSO₃ redox system was found to decrease maximum conversion and doesn't form a stable emulsion. The apparent arrhenius activation energy (E^a) estimated for the polymerization system was 65.6 kJ/mol. The viscosity average molecular weights for some obtained poly(vinyl acetate) were determined.
