EASY SYNTHESIS OF 1-ALLYL-1-DEOXY-β- AND α- d-LYXOFURANOSES

2,3;5,6-Di-O-isopropylidene-α-d-mannofuranosyl chloride reacted with allylmagnesium bromide with preferential inversion of the anomeric configuration to furnish a mixture of the 1-allyl-1-deoxy-β- and α-d-mannofuranoses. Separation of β and α derivatives was possible only after conversion to the 1-allyl-1-deoxylyxofuranoses 2 and 3.

STUDIES ON THE TOTAL SYNTHESIS OF MAYTANSINOIDS (Ⅳ)——SYNTHESIS OF MAYTANSINE

This paper reports the total synthesis of optically pure maytansinol and maytansine. The physical constants and spectral data including R_f, m.p., specific rotation, HPLC, UV, CD, IR, NMR, and MS, of synthetic maytansinol and maytansine are identical with those of natural products in all respects. The preliminary biological test showed that synthetic maytansine possesses the same inhibitory activity in vitro against carcinoma cells as the natural product.

SYNTHESIS AND CATIONIC RING-OPENING POLYMERIZATION OF 1, 4-ANHYDRO-2, 3-DI-O-(P-AZIDOBENZYL)-α-D-RIBOPYRANOSE

New highly stereoregular 2, 3 -di- O-(p-azidobenzyl )-(1 →5 ) - α-D -ribofuranan was synthesized byselective ring-opening polymerization of 1, 4-anhydro-2, 3 - di-O -(p-azidobenzyl )-α-D -ribopyranose(ADABR) using phosphorus pentafluoride or tin tetrachloride as catalyst at low temperature indichloromethane. The monomer was obtained by the reaction of p - bromomethyl -phenyleneazide with 1, 4 -anhydro-α-D-ribose in DMF. The structure of poly(ADANR) was identified by specific rotation and ~(13)C-NMR spectroscopy. Acid chloride-AgCl_4 complex catalyst such as CH_2=C(CH_3)C~+OClO_4~- used in thepolymerization resulted in polymers with mixed structures, i.e. (1→5)-α-D-ribofuranosidic and (1→4)-β-D-ribopyranosidic units. However, with C_6H_5C~+OClO_4~- as catalyst, pure (1→5)-α-D-ribofuranan was obtained.The effects of catalyst, polymerization temperature and time on polymer stereoregularity were examined, andthe mechanism of the ring-opening polymerization was discussed.

INVESTIGATION ON SYNTHESIS, STRUCTURE AND PROPERTIES OF THE CLUSTER COMPLEX,[(MoS_4)Fe(MoS_4O)] [(C_4H_9)_4N]_3

In this paper, we report a new Mo-Fe-S cluster complex containing an oxygen ligand. Itwas synthesized by the reaction of (NH_4)_2 MoS_4, FeCl_3 in the solution of sodium glycol. The chemical formula of the crystal, [(MoS_4) Fe (MoS_4O)] [(C_4H_9)_4N]_3, was characterized byX-ray. This complex was determined by IR, UV/Vis and Mossbauer spectra as well. The re-suits from Mossbauer spectra of the complex show an isomer shift, δ_m = 0.2263mm/s and aquadrupole splitting, E_q = 0.4527mm/s. The complex has some activity for the reduetion of aectylene to ethylene in the presenceof KBH_4.

XPS STUDY ON THE ROLE OF CO_2 IN LOW-PRESSURE METHANOL SYNTHESIS

Surface characterization of CuO-ZnO-Al_2O_3 catalysts for low pres-sure methanol synthesis was carried out by using X-ray photoelectron spec-troscopy(XPS)combined with reaction chamber under simulated industrialoperating condition.Under the reduction and reaction conditions,no stableCu~(2+) or Cu~+ ions were found,only Cu~0 species was detected.ZuO could be re-duced with result of forming oxygen-deficient structure ZnO_x(X<1)andoxygen vacancy on the surface.The presence of enough amount of CO_2 infeed gas enhanced copper dispersion.It is believed that highly dispersed Cu~0 in intimate contact with ZnO is one of the active components for methanol syn-thesis and the optimal structure of the active unit is Cu——Zn—O(“□”is oxygen vacancy).It is proposed that the main role of CO_2 is to establish anoxidation potential of syngas so as to accelerate the oxidation-reduction cyclebetween Cu~0 and Cu~(δ+)/or Cu~+ during methanol synthesis as well as to preventCu~0 crystallites from aggregating and thus to maintain the catalyst in high ac-tivity and have long life.     

SYNTHESIS OF 2′-DEOXY-2′-FLUORO- 1-β-d-ARABINOFURANOSYL URACIL DERIVATIVES: A METHOD SUITABLE FOR PREPARATION OF [18F]-LABELED NUCLEOSIDES

ABSTRACT

N-glycosylation of 2,4-bis-O-(trimethylsilyl)-pyrimidine bases with 2-deoxy-2-fluoro-3,5-di-O-benzoyl-1-(Br, OBz)-α-d-arabinose derivatives are reported. 1-Bromo-arabinose provides high yield and a favorable anomeric ratio (β/α) of pyrimidine nucleoside in either MeCN or CH₂Cl?CH₂Cl. This method should be suitable for the synthesis of 2′-deoxy-2′-[¹⁸F]fluoro-1-β-d-arabinofuranosyluracil derivatives.

INFLUENCE OF TRACES OF WATER ON THE SYNTHESIS AND ELECTROLUMINESCENCE PROPERTIES OF POLY(2-METHOXY, 5- (2'''' -ETHYLHEXYL OXY)- 1, 4-PHENYLENE VINYLENE)

It was found that traces of water in the reaction medium would result in a great increase of gel and a decrease ofmolecular weight of the poly(2-methoxy, 5-(2'-ethylhexyloxy)-1, 4-phenylene vinylene) during the polymerization, whichultimately led to inferior film qualities and device properties. The device (ITO/PEDOT/MEH-PPV/Ba/Al) with MEH-PPVprepared under dry conditions has an external quantum efficiency of above 2.0%.
