Oxy- and aminoselenation of alkenes utilizing an isolable selenenyl iodide

Application of an isolable selenenyl iodide BpqSeI (Bpq denotes 5',5'''-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-2,6,2'''',6''''-tetra-isopropyl-1,1':3',1'':3'',1''':3''',1''''-quinquephenyl-2''-yl) to selenofunctionalization of alkenes with external oxygen or nitrogen nucleophiles was investigated. In the presence of N-iodosuccinimide as an additive, alcohols, a carboxylic acid, or aromatic amines were smoothly introduced to alkenes to give the corresponding β-oxy or β-amino selenides in moderate to high yields.     

Total synthesis of orellanine : The lethal toxin of Cortinarius Orellanus fries mushroom

The syntheses of the main toxin of Cortinarius Orellanus Fries, orellanine, and of its decomposition product, orelline, are reported. The structures of 3,3',4,4'-tetrahydroxy-2,2'-bipyridyl-N,N'-dioxide for orellanine and of 3,3',4,4'-tetrahydroxy-2,2'-bipyridyl for orelline have been proposed by W.Z. Antkowiak and W.P. Gessner. These two conpounds have now been synthesized starting from the 3,3',4,4'-tetramethoxy-2,2'-bipyridyl which could be obtained in good yields by the nickel-phosphine complex-mediated homo coupling of 2-bromo-3,4-dimethoxy pyridine according to the general procedure previously reported by us. The 3,3',4,4'-tetrahydroxy-2,2'-bipyridyl was obtained by demethylation with hydrobromic acid. The oxidation of this compound with hydrogen peroxide afforded the 3,3',4,4'-tetrahydroxy-2,2'-bipyridyl-N,N'-dioxide. This latter compound was also obtained by the demethylation of the 3,3',4,4'-tetramethoxy-2,2'-bipyridyl-N,N'-dioxide with hydrobromic acid. The products obtained presented physical and spectral properties identical to those of the natural products.

本文以环己酮为原料,通过氮杂Wittig反应合成了一系列结构新颖的取代四氢苯并噻吩并吡啶并嘧啶衍生物,并采用MTT法考察所合成目标化合物对CNE2、KB、MGC-803、MCF-7和PC3这5种肿瘤细胞的抑制活性。初步的生物活性结果表明,目标化合物对5种肿瘤细胞均有抑制活性,尤其是对胃癌MGC-803细胞展现出了更强的抑制活性。其中3-(4-氟苯基)-2-((4-氟苯基)氨基)-5-甲基-8,9,10,11-四氢苯并[4',5']噻吩并[3',2':5,6]吡啶并[4,3-d]嘧啶-4(3H)-酮[化合物8c,IC_(50)=(0. 9±0. 25)μmol·L~(-1)]对MGC-803的活性最强,是5-氟尿嘧啶[IC_(50)=(18. 4±1. 43)μmol·L~(-1)]的20倍;同时,目标化合物对正常的胃黏膜上皮细胞GES-1没有毒性。四氢苯并[4',5']噻吩并[3',2':5,6]吡啶并[4,3-d]嘧啶类化合物具有良好的抗肿瘤活性,值得进一步深入研究。     

The acetonation of lactose and benzyl β-lactoside with 2-methoxypropene

The acetonation of lactose with 2-methoxypropene afforded 4,6-O-isopropylidene lactose (2) and a diacetal which, after acetylation, gave an α,β-anomeric mixture of 1, 2,6,3'-tetra-O-acetyl-3,2':4',6'-di-O-isopropylidene lactose (4). Acetonation of benzyl b-lactoside afforded the mixed acetals benzyl 6,6'-di-O-(methoxydimethyt)methyl (6), 6'-O-(methoxydimethyl)methyl-(7) and 6-O-(methoxydimethyl) methyl-β -lactoside (8), the cyclic acetal benzyl 4',6'-O-isopropylidene.-β-lactoside (9) and a diacetal which, after acetylation gave benzyl 2, 6, 3'-tri-O-acetyl-3,2':4',6'-di-O-isopropylidene-β-lactoside (11). The favoured formation of eight-membered 3,2'-cyclic acetals in lactose derivatives has been further demonstrated by acetonation of benzyl 2,3',6'-tri-O-benzyl-β-lactoside (13) and benzyl 2,6,3',6'-tetra-O-benzyl-b-lactoside (12). As an example of the synthetic utility of this acetonation reaction, the chiral macrocyclic polyhydroxyether 25 has been synthesized from benzyl 3',4'-O-isopropylidene-β-lactoside.     

Efficient Syntheses of New Super Lewis Basic Tris(dialkylamino)-Substituted Terpyridines and Comparison of Their Methyl Cation Affinities

Syntheses of very electron-rich dialkylamino-substituted 2,2':6',2''-terpyridines (TPYs) were adapted to moderate scale preparation without tedious purification of intermediates. The key 4'-bromo-6,6''-dimethyl-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine-4,4''-diyl bisnonaflate is now available in gram quantities. Its nucleophilic aromatic substitution with dimethylamine provided mixtures of 4'-bromo-substituted 4,4''-bis(dimethylamino)-TPY and the tris(dimethylamino)-TPY. The bromo compound was used in a Buchwald–Hartwig amination to provide the tris(dimethylamino)-TPY in excellent yield. The 4'-bromo substituent was reductively removed to furnish the bis(dimethylamino)-TPY. The same sequence of reactions with pyrrolidine as nucleophile leads to the hitherto unknown pyrrolidino-TPYs. Calculations at the MP2(FC)/6–31+G(2d,p)//B98/6-31G(d) level predict very high methyl cation affinities for compounds of this type, with the 4,4',4''-tri(pyrrolidin-1-yl)-TPY being the most Lewis basic TPY synthesized to date. The efficiently prepared electron-rich TPYs should be excellent ligands for many applications.

Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of new derivatives of pyrano[4',3':4',5']pyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine and new heterocyclic systems

Taking into account previously obtained biological results on some polyheterocyclic compounds (containing different heteroatoms) and in particular on several 8-amino-5-isopropyl-2,2-dimethyl-10-(methylthio)-1,4-dihydro-2H-pyrano[4’’,3’’:4’,5’]pyrido[3’,2’:4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidines Ia-v we have carried out the synthesis of twentyone 8-amino-5-isobutyl-2,2-dimethyl-10-(methylthio)-1,4-dihydro-2H-pyrano[4’’,3’’:4’,5’]pyrido[3’,2’:4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidines 6. Therefore we have slightly modified the structure of the previously studied I introducing at C-5 an isobutyl group instead of the previously examined isopropyl ones in order to see if this variation (changing a little the lipophilicity) will affect the biological activity. Furthermore thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine-8-thione 7 and their S-alkylated 8 were synthesized. Finally by alkylation of 5-isobutyl-2,2-dimethyl-10-thioxo-1,4,10,11-tetrahydro-2H-pyrano[4'',3'':4',5']pyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-8(9H)-one 3 with alkyl dichlorides (bifunctional reagents) we realized the cyclization of a thiazole or thiazine ring on the [b] side of the pyrimidine ring with formation of the new condensed pentaheterocyclic systems: pyrano[4'',3'':4',5']pyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d][1,3]thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-8-one 11 and pyrano[4''',3''':4'',5'']pyrido[3'',2'':4',5']thieno[3',2':4,5]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazin-8-one 12. It was found that some of the synthesized compounds showed interesting antimicrobial activity (by agar diffusion method) against some gram-positive and gram-negative bacilli strains.     

Stereochemical assignment of five new lignan glycosides from Viscum album by NMR study combined with CD spectroscopy

The chemical study of the leaves and twigs of Viscum album led to the isolation of five new lignan glycosides, namely, ligalbumosides A–E (2‐6) and one known lignan glycoside, alangilignoside C (1). The structures of five new lignan glycosides were determined to be (7R,8S,8'S)‐4,9,4'‐trihydroxy‐3,5,3',5'‐tetramethoxy‐7,9'‐epoxylignan 9‐O‐β‐D‐glucopyranoside (2), (7S,8S,7'S,8'R)‐4,9,4'‐trihydroxy‐3,5,3',5',7'‐pentamethoxy‐7,9'‐epoxylignan 9‐O‐β‐D‐glucopyranoside (3), (7R,8R,7'S,8'S)‐4,9,4'‐trihydroxy‐3,5,3',5',7'‐pentamethoxy‐7,9'‐epoxylignan 9‐O‐β‐D‐glucopyranoside (4), (7S,8R,7'S,8'R)‐4,9,4'‐trihydroxy‐3,5,3',5',7'‐pentamethoxy‐7,9'‐epoxylignan 9‐O‐β‐D‐glucopyranoside (5), and (7R,8S,7'R,8'S)‐4,9,4',7'‐tetrahydroxy‐3,5,3',5'‐tetramethoxy‐7,9'‐epoxylignan 9‐O‐β‐D‐glucopyranoside (6) using 1D‐, 2D‐NMR, and CD spectra, chemical methods, as well as comparing the results with those reported in the literature.

Melt miscibility of HDPE/UHMWPE,LDPE/UHMWPE,and LLDPE/UHMWPE blends detected by dynamic rheometer

The dynamic rheological behavior of high density polyethylene (HDPE)/ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) blends, low density polyethylene (LDPE)/UHMWPE blends and linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE)/ UHMWPE blends was measured in parallel plate rheometer at 200°C. The analysis of log-additivity rule, Cole-Cole plots and Han curves of the three series blends indicated that the LDPE/UHMWPE blends were miscible in the melt, while the HDPE/UHMWPE blends and LLDPE/UHMWPE blends showed phase separation. The DSC results of LLDPE/UHMWPE blends and HDPE/UHMWPE blends were consistent with the rheological properties, while for the thermal properties of LDPE/UHMWPE blends, results revealed three endothermic peaks, which indicated a liquid-solid phase separation in LDPE/UHMWPE blends.

Intriguing E…E' bonding in [Nap(EPh)(E'Ph)]•+ (E,E'=O,S, Se,Te)

The nature of E···E' bonding in homonuclear (E = E') and heteronuclear (E ≠ E') [Nap(EPh)(E'Ph)]^?+ (E, E' = O, S, Se, and Te) radical cations has been investigated by quantum chemistry and the topological analysis of electron density. The calculation results show that the E···E' bonding in the title compounds occurs through attractive interactions; O···E' (E'=O, S, Se, and Te) bonding are electrostatic interactions, and the others have a partial covalent character. The nature of E···E' bonding varies periodically, with the changes of E' atoms going from the lighter to the heavier (O, S, Se, and Te). Both in homonuclear and heteronuclear [Nap(EPh)(E'Ph)]^?+, for the same E atom, a heavier E' atom means stronger E···E/E' bonding, a more covalent character of the E···E' bond, and more spin electron density transfers from benzene rings to the E···E' group. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

New EDTA determination method based on ion chromatography with suppressed conductimetric detection

A novel direct method for the determination of EDTA in alkaline radioactive evaporator residue solution was developed and validated based on ion chromatography with suppressed conductimetric detection and anion exchange columns (A Supp 4, 4 mm × 250 mm and A Supp 5, 4 mm × 150 mm). The yttrium-EDTA complex resulted one single chromatographic peak in the eluent and allowed the correct determination of EDTA in an alkaline, high concentration radioactive waste water. Depending on coexisting substances, suitable eluent is 10.0 mM carbonate buffer/pH 10.6 or 10.75 (t _R,Y–EDTA = 7.01 and 6.4 min, respectively). For 10.0 mM carbonate buffer/pH 10.6 and isocratic flow rate of 1.0 cm³/min, a linear calibration curve was obtained from 5 to 40 mg/dm³ (r > 0.999) EDTA. Good resolution was achieved from commonly coexisting anions (chloride, nitrite, nitrate, sulphate, phosphate, bromide and citrate). The developed simple ion chromatographic method was applied for the assay of EDTA in various radioactive alkaline solutions.     

H-ZSM-5分子筛催化4-MBP与甲醇甲基化的反应机理

4,4?-二甲基联苯(4,4?-DMBP)是生产高性能聚合物材料的重要前驱体,可以通过4-甲基联苯(4-MBP)甲基化制得.本文采用“our own-N-layered integrated molecular orbital+molecular mechanics”(ONIOM)和密度泛函理论(DFT)方法研究H-ZSM-5分子筛孔内4-MBP和甲醇择形甲基化的反应机理,考虑了分步和协同反应机理.分步机理的活化能低于协同机理.在两种反应机理中,4,4?-DMBP为动力学优先生成产物.过渡态择形的特征也使甲基化更容易生成4,4?-DMBP.在分子筛孔内,4-MBP 异构化生成3-甲基联苯(3-MBP)的反应被抑制.在分子筛外表面,4-MBP异构化生成3-MBP比甲基化反应更有动力学优势,导致4,4?-DMBP选择性降低.对外表面进行改性将会抑制4-MBP异构化反应,并使反应在分子筛孔内进行,因此可以提高4,4?-DMBP的选择性. H-ZSM-5催化择形和非择形反应的计算结果与实验现象一致.

NIR-absorbing donor–acceptor molecules based on fused thienopyrroloindole

Two novel aromatic compounds containing thieno[2',3':4,5]-thieno[3,2-b]thieno[2' ' , 3' ':4' ,5']thieno[2',3':4,5]-pyrrolo[3,2-g]indole as the electron-donating center and terminal 3-(dicyanomethylene)indan-1-one (or 5,6-difluoro analogue) electron-accepting groups exhibit efficient light absorption in the red and near-infrared spectral regions, have low levels of the highest occupied molecular orbital (up to –5.65 eV) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (–3.91 eV) and a relatively low band gap value (up to 1.74 eV). The optical, thermal and structural properties are explored and compared with those of their closest and well known analogues, Y5 and Y6.     

Use of hydroxylapatite composite membranes for analysis of bisphenol A

This study evaluates solid-phase micro-extraction (SPME) coupled with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) to determine trace levels of bis-phenol A in water and leached from plastic containers. In our study, we used very thin composite membranes prepared in the laboratory. The extraction using headspace post-derivatization with bis(trimethylsilyl) trifluoroacetamide (BSTFA), containing 1 % trimethylchlorosilane (TMCS) vapor, following SPME was compared with extraction without derivatization. The SPME experimental procedures to extract bis-phenol A in water were optimized with a relatively polar polyacrylate (PA)-coated fiber, an extraction time of 50 min, and desorption at 300 °C for 2 min. Headspace derivatization following SPME was performed using 7 μL of BSTFA with 1 % TMCS at 65 °C for 30 s. The precision was 5.2 % without derivatization and 9.0 % headspace derivatization. The detection limit was determined to be at the nanogram per liter level. When SPME was used following headspace derivatization, the detection limit was one order of magnitude better than that achieved without derivatization. The results of this study reveal the adequacy of the SPME–GC–MS method for analyzing bisphenol A leached from plastic containers. The concentrations of bisphenol A leached from plastic containers into water ranged from 0.7 to 78.5 μg L^?1.
