,-Dibromo--('-carbethoxyacetony)-^,-butenolide (I) reacts with amines in diethyl ether solution to give -bromo-amino--('-carbethoxyacetony)-^,-butenolides. Compounds n are converted to -bromo-amino--('-carbethoxyacetony)-^,-butenolides on reaction with amines. The corresponding arylhydrazones (VI and VII) are obtained by the reaction of I and II with p-nitro- and 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazines.

Synthesis of δ-alkoxy-α, α-dicarbonyl-substituted dienes and study of their valence isomerization

Methods of synthesis of dienic -alkoxy-, -dicarbonyl-substituted compounds were experimentally examined. The structure of the synthesized compounds was studied by¹H and¹³C-NMR methods. It was shown that the -alkoxy diesters are present in equilibrium with 2H-pyrans, while -alkoxy--methyl diesters and 2-(3-alkoxypropen-2-ylindene)indanediones exist in an open form and do not undergo cyclization into 2H-pyrans.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 11, pp. 2561–2565, November, 1990.

Interactions of Nabumetone with Cyclodextrins in Solution and in the Solid State

The interactions of nabumetone (NAB) with -cyclodextrin (-CD) and-cyclodextrin (-CD) were studied in aqueous solution by meansof phase-solubility analysis. Solid dispersions of NAB with -cyclodextrin(-CD), -cyclodextrin (-CD), methyl- (M-CD),hydroxypropyl-cyclodextrin (HP-CD) were prepared by coevaporationand kneading and also by coprecipitation in the case of -CD. X-ray diffractometry, thermal analysis and infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were used to study the possibility of complexation of the drug with the different cyclodextrins. Solid dispersions of nabumetone with -CD showed a remarkable improvement in the dissolution rate of nabumetone.

The oxidation of iodide to I ₃ ^– by oxygen dissolved in water containing HClO₄ has been found to be accelerated by -cyclodextrin (-CD). Among -, -, and -CDs, -CD is the most effective mediator for the oxidation reaction of iodide by oxygen. The oxidation rate of iodide is first order in the concentrations of -CD and HClO₄, whereas it is second order in the KI concentration.Part of this work was carried out at Department of Physics, Miyazaki Medical College, Miyazaki 889-16, Japan.

Thermal decomposition of copper(II)phthalate monohydrate

The thermal dehydration and decomposition of copper(II) phthalate monohydrate was studied by isothermal and non-isothermal methods. The decomposition process consisted of three steps: two steps of dehydration and the third of decomposition. The kinetics of isothermal dehydration reactions follow (i) a unimolecular law up to the formation of copper(II) phthalate hemihydrate, and (ii) a phase boundary model giving anhydrous copper(II) phthalate, while the kinetics of isothermal decomposition reaction comply with the Erofeev-Avrami equation, [–ln(1–)]^1/n =Kt+C. The energies of activation for the formation of the decomposition products were calculated. The decomposition products were characterized by elemental analysis, photomicrographic observations, infrared and reflectance spectra and X-ray powder diffraction data.

Zusammenfassung Die thermische Dehydratisierung und Zersetzung von Kupfer(II)Phthalat Monohydrat wurde durch isotherme und nichtisotherme Methoden untersucht. Der Zersetzungsvorgang bestand aus drei Stufen: zwei Stufen der Dehydratisierung und die dritte der Zersetzung. Die Kinetik der isothermen Dehydratisierungsreaktionen folgt (i) einem unimolekularen Gesetz bis zur Bildung von Kupfer(II)Phthalat Hemihydrat und (ii) einem Grenzflächen modell, das wasserfreies Kupfer(II)Phthalat ergibt, während die Kinetik der isothermen Zersetzungsreaktion der Erofeev-Avrami Gleichung, [–ln(1–)]^1/n =Kt+C genügt. Die Aktivierungsenergien für die Bildung der Zersetzungsprodukte wurden berechnet. Die Zersetzungsprodukte wurden durch Elementaranalyse, mikrophotographische Beobachtungen, Infrarot- und Remissionsspektra sowie Röntgen-Pulverdiffraktionsdaten charakterisiert.

Complex polarizability as used to analyze dielectric relaxation measurements

The effect of representing dielectric properties in terms of the complex polarizability ^c = – i is examined. Loss curves ( and tan ) are shifted towards higher frequencies, revealing the existence of new relaxations and allowing the clarifications of ones already known. We have calculated the shift ratios (at maximum or tan )/ (at maximum or tan ) from the more conventional empirical equations representing the dielectric behavior. Some examples are given.
